Grunge Rock

[theundeadhero]

Nirvana, Hole, older STP, a few songs by Soun Garden. I could never stand Eddie Veder's voice.

AiC aren't really "grunge", but more prog rock. Anyways, they're stilll an awesome band.

I think it's pretty absurd (please excuse my whiteness) to call a band just one genre. Bands are multiple genres, it's inevitable for them to be that way. Even if they weren't grunge, they were part of the Grunge scene.

Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Creed are the only ones I can think of at the moment.

Err ... no it is not inevitable. A band can be one genre for their entire career. Nirvana were nothing but Grunge. >_> Sucked but were nothing but grunge.

Anyways, don't ever excuse your whiteness. You are showing a weakness and lack of pride in yourself and your race.

I'm more of a fan of the Alternative Scene that ran alongside the Grunge scene. However, some of the best bands (IMO) were grunge bands. I love:
-The Smashing Pumpkins (While they got less grunge as they progressed, always had the spirit of Grunge in their songs)
-Pixies (The pionners of the music)
-Sonic Youth (Listen to Daydream Nation, Goo &Dirty for some good Grunge).

Some proper grunge bands I like :
-Nirvana
-Mudhoney
-Pearl Jam
-Hole
-Stone Temple Pilots
-L7

Of course we need a Neil Young shout-out in here.

I'm not sure Sonic Youth could be called grunge, but sure they influenced a lot Grunge bands and Nirvana especially. In my opinion if you don't know Sonic Youth you cannot fully understand records like "In Utero" and "Pretty on the Inside" by Hole.
Same for the Pixies.
As for the Pumpkins, they were my ultimate rock n' roll heroes a few years back. <3 But even they cannot be only called grunge.

[eestlinc]

Sonic Youth are one of the most amazingly influential bands of the last 20 years.

[KoShiatar]

Yes, truly.

Stone Temple Pilots and Soundgarden were great and so are the bands that came after them, Audioslave and Velvet Revolver
