and i dont think i got it right..
can u give some examples for alternative bands that arent grunge?
and soundgarden is grunge too. :|
I think the three I listed up there aren't grunge. As well, I was meaning more along the lines of good screaming, not what's hardcore and whats not. Anything thats just screaming is most times blech.
Quote: Point in case.
You guys are ACTUALLY pointing to the TRUE idea of grundge.
But Grundge was swallowed up by Alternative.
As was Experimental Rock as was Pop Indie.
ALTERNATIVE IS TOO BROAD A TERM!
and people use it too much.
....
Meh now I am thinking its like
Metal
or
Punk
Or
Country
-Each has dozens of sub-genres.
Maybe Alternative Rock is just the nor Punk or Metal and thus it must be alternative-
At least that is one alternative.![]()
...
Can we say Jimmy Eat World (later stuff) is alternative- I like them.
I think YOU are just giving alternative too broad of a term. That's like saying Metallica, Sublime, Def Leppard, STYX, and Stray Cats are all rock. Yeah, technically they are, but they're nowhere near all the same thing.
