Someone told me this: "I think that grunge is like.... 50% punk 35% metal 15% classic rock musicwise at least" Would you agree/disagree? Your opinions please! Discuss.... |

Grunge = 40% unwashed laundry. 40% unwashed hair. 10% random dirt and bacteria. 5% upset teenagers. 4% too much free time. 1% unwashed musical instruments. Grunge. It's like if you took a "Punk Rocker", rolled him in the mud, and robbed him of his spirit to really do something horrid to piss people off. |

Well. there is certainly an image that goes with grunge, but it's more the music that matters. In fact, the only grunge band I really like is Nirvana, with few exceptions. I personally just (hate to stereotype) think of angry Gen-X teens, thrash and burn, and KC. I personally agree with and like a few of those things, and the leftovers, not so much. Although, these are mostly negatives on grunge, and there are plenty of positives. Also, gruge isn't crap, it's music, and unless it is made by cheap always-been-sold-out jerks, it's going to be self expression. I liked seeing everybody's opinions on the genre, and I may not agree with all of them, but I sure respect them. By the way, if you think I hate grunge, I really don't know much about it. Above is basically the extent of my knowledge and opinions on the matter, but I know that there is alot more than what has been posted on this topic. Thank you for an interseting topic, hard_life, and may everyone keep posting (I hope you find an answer you like!) |

(To hard_life) Anytime. :) Also, I knew what I was talking about... and not much else. Thanx, though! I was afraid that someone would be all "Answer the question in percentages!" Also, Freddie's Son, I'm not sure if you were being sarcastic or not, but don't you think that's a little narrow minded? Just wondering. XP |

No, Freddie's Son is narrow minded. You'll see... |

I'd have to say, something that some people try too hard to be. But the music can be pretty good, example...well...Nirvana. |

grunge... i think of nirvana or pearl jam whe i hear that word... in short, grunge is... raw, grotesque, emotional in a good way, abstract, and if i were to paint something... it would end up looking like a picasso piece. :) |

Hey, you guys! Besides Nirvana being a grunge band, what about Hole, Alice In Chains, Pearl Jam (although someone mentioned it once), Mudhoney, Smashing Pumpkins, Soundgarden, Stone Temple Pilots, Screaming Trees, Temple Of The Dog, Mother Love Bone, and Black Lab? |

Nice thread... Lots of open minded folk in here! Now don't get me wrong, if I see a CD labelled Nirvana I'm not the first one to grab it and put it on, but really.. you could do worse. Jay-Z, for example, the man with less rhythm than Average Homeboy. |

Dan Corson, I think that may be the most sane post here yet... And whoever said that grunge was like a picasso painting, that is a great comparison. I like grunge, but I don't have alot of time for anything outside of Queen. Actually, I choose not to, but I am obviously obsessed with Queen, so why not listen to them alot? When I am not listening to Queen, I can be found with The Clash, Nick Drake or Nirvana. There is tons of other stuff I'd love to listen to, which is why I buy CDs. I occasionally listen to Pearl Jam, Hole (only like once in my life, none of the local radio stations play it), Alice in Chains, etc. Sorry for the super long post! |

Is Nirvana "Classic Rock" ? Some people say so, but the local "Classic Rock" radio station never plays them. Maybe it's different where you guys are, but here "Classic Rock" is pretty much a term used to market to the people who are "Yeah ! AC/DC ROCKS ! They're geniuses and wrote some of the most awesome and complex music EVER !" |

Both grunge and hair metal are better to listen than most tracks on 'Hot Space'. |
