STP and Hole had some alight songs, but I do agree that bands like L7, 4 Non-Blondes, Blind Melon and whatnot were less than average.
Still better than most Glam Metal bands (who in my opinion spawned two good bands: Motley Crue and WASP. Three if you count Gn'R as hair metal).
Glam Metal is looked back as quite embarrassing, whereas Grunge is seen as a more down-to-earth kind of rock (sulking about life is much more realistic than partying every night).
I do agree though that Grunge did spawn some ****ty one-hit wonder bands.
