Me either. It sucks.


And I dont want to seem unfairly biased...I used to be a huge grunge fanboy, I owned cds by Mad Season, Temple of the dog, STP, Alice In chains...I own every Nirvana album, inclusing the with the lights out boxset and a burned cd of rarities and b-sides...its lke I said though, one I discovered other stuff from the time like pavement, pixies, my bloody valentine, and guided by voices, it all paled ALOT in comparison. It didnt stick, and continued to be overplayed.

Branching out led to my dismissal of grunge, and Ive never looked back, because those bands I mentioned have albums that I treasure 1000% more than any 'grunge' album I ever owned.

Ironically it was alot of suggestions by Kurt Cobain mentioned in interviews that led me to branch out, introducing me to The Vaselines, Meat Puppets, Pixies, P.I.L., Sonic Youth, and a buttload more.

Yeah its Layne Stayley and I think another grunge band does the music...maybe Soundgarden? Temple of the Dog was another supergroup which was Soundgarden and Pearl Jam...also sucked. They did that awful 'Hunger Strike' song about veganism.

Ahhh thats who's in it. I just knew they were a supergroup. A super-CRAPPY-group. Yukyukyukyukyukyuk.

But yeah, I always recommend Pavement to people stuck on grunge, they sound 90's but they dont suck, if you want to branch out I reccomend them and the Pixies.

This is what 10 years of record company interference , Mainstream exposure and deluded record buyers thinking they're 'alternative' does to a genre...


1987


1997
