The Official Grunge Thread

[Surell]

Ditto for that sir.

[Urban Hat€monger ?]

These grunge fans are so highly strung.

I didn't even get a chance to say anything this time

Hahaha! Indeed, friends, indeed.

Out of curiosity, how old are you? I ask because every fanatical grunge fan were get here seems to be too young to have even been born back when grunge was having any kind of impact and I'm trying to figure out this bizarre pattern.

Haha I know what you mean. But I'm 21. Grunge is about exactly what teens (that I know) connect to. I just happened to hold on to It, which actually isn't all that special considering the age of band members.

Well, you may just be the oldest grunge fan to post here then. Even still that makes you, what, three when Nevermind was released? Not that there's anything wrong with listening to older music or anything, but I find it strange that grunge would have any kind of appeal to people after the fact.

Well, even if someone wasn't alive when it came out, my view is that it sounds good. I love Maiden but I wasn't there in the 80s enough to be there. It's like the word people use: classic. Just not for everybody.

Also, nevermind wasn't the only album. It was just the most famous. Which is actually one of the reasons for Kurts' decision (and please don't let anyone talk about his suicide- it was his choice, he made, who cares?)

LOL. I was in high school at the peak of the whole grunge thing, I realize that Nevermind wasn't the only grunge album. It was the album that made grunge big though.

Like I said, my surprise about younger grunge fans doesn't have anything to do with the idea of people listening to older music, I listen to plenty of music that's older than me myself. It's just that grunge was such a manufactured thing I find it amazing that it could appeal to anyone outside of the very narrow demographic that it was originally aimed at.

[Ahem]

I don't know, I like what it sounds like, and that's all I need haha
