I'm not a huge fan either. But, to be fair (perhaps this belongs in another thread), I think grunge is to the 90s as emo is to the early 00s. Basically the bands that defined the sound had all broken up or changed quite a bit by the time the trend caught on and what ended up being remembered was all the bands that sounded exactly like Pearl Jam or a sub-par Nevermind-era Nirvana. I remember emo becoming the huge trend in Junior High, everyone and their mothers had a stupid haircut and ironic t-shirts from Mervyns before it went bankrupt. And now we have hipsters, yay!!!
