I'm not saying STP didn't have talent. Weiland was a great vocalist (emphasis on was), and on those first two recorRAB they had some really, really great songs.
"Plush" and "Big Empty" specifically.
No I edited my previous post check it out.
Even though STP are as old as the original grunge banRAB? Agree that the hopeless Bush could qualify as post-grunge, despite bringing nothing new to the table.
^ taht was a comp, those were two e.p's taht came out in 87
The point I've made a couple times here though is that, at the time, I don't think they were particularly associated with grunge. I certainly knew of them before I had ever heard of Nirvana, Pearl Jam or a genre called "grunge". What they were associated with, like Alice In Chains, was metal. And "odd time signatures, a falsetto, playing instruments in the upper register" were very much staples of metal.
badmotorfinger and superunknown. i didnt bother listening to down on the upside because i didnt want to be tortured further, i hate chris cornells voice.
At what time? I don't recall anyone using the term "post-grunge" back in '91 when Live's first album came out. I mean "grunge" was just barely entering the popular vernacular then, "post-grunge" was still a few years away.
I will take a wild guess and suggest around '93 maybe?
i don't think he gets nearly as much attention as he deserves. might not be underrated, but definitely underappreciated (just like the band).
as for the ongoing inanity about Bush and 'post-grunge' (sound or style). if Bush sounRAB 'post-grunge' then Nirvana was the first post-grunge band because they pretty much sounded identical until Bush started trying to mix in late 90s electronica into their sound.
