@vlavar No, they're not grunge. Grunge is dirty, "alternative" and heavy, and they're melodic and made as in commercial stadion rock style. Hole is the same, too clear for grunge, but cool, and Alice In Chains is too metal-ish. No, pearl Jam isn't grunge, never was. By the way, like Kurt said, they're totally like the shitty Journey. More alternative, younger Journey. Commercial, plastic, butthole, cock rock band.
@znubzz188 Who says that? All I see are kids like me on videos like this saying they wish they were born earlier so they could see stuff like this. If people around are saying that, then they don't know what it's like. I was born in the 90's so I am a teen now, and it sucks because my generation sucks. I wish I was born in the late 60's.
I get tired of people taking a huge shit on newer music. I agree, the music form the 90s is way better, but that is to us who grew up with it. I belive that the love for this music is much more than the just the music. We also have a lot of memories to them.
I bet people growing up now will love theire music as we love our. Just as people growing up in the 60s and 70s loves Beatles, Stones, Led Zeppelin etc. much more than other music. Stop hating so god damn much, just love the music you love!
@motakay . "I agree, the music form the 90s is way better, but that is to us who grew up with it" ...Idon´t agree with you... I was born in 1993 and i hate today´s music ...it deeply sucks! And it´s not just me, i know a lot of kids my age who listen to music from 90´s and if you read youtube comments you can see that a lot of kids write comments about how today´s music sucks... The fact is that today´s music hasn´t much to offer to us...Most of todays music just lost any meaning
@blackrose688 Yes, I totaly agree that you can love music from another age, I love Frank Zappa for example. But What I meant was that many people get a speciall bond to the music they grow up with, and many of them create this hatred for the new and different music.
When you say music today lost meaning, I rather think that it has no meaning for, say, you and me for example, but it can still be very meaningfull to other people. All I say is, don't hate so much.
@motakay i agree PLUS people seem to talk about all sorts of new music as shit, i don't know what's up with them....i think they're watching too much vh1 imo, there are some trully awesome new ones too, just that they're not being played on the same space as gaga, people live in their little mainstream world, fuck em, there are some good bands right now too
The 90's conditioned me to hate main stream music. After the FEW genuine bands blew up, hordes of shitty major label cash cows came out and really taught me how to hate all of it. I'm thankful though. If it wasn't for "indie" becoming a sound and not just an abbreviation for the term, "independent", I would have never found real punk and hardcore music (no, none of those NYC bands from the 70's... so punk). Only 5% of you know what I'm talking about. Shit, I'm losing punk points just being here.
@FIimFlamJibberJabber flim.. express your mind man.. but there is no punk points. there is no punk scene anymore.. the closest i ever got was having punk rock parrents.. (well mom) my dad was a glam rocker... ewwwww.. but good music is good music... hold on and never let it slip away.. in a world where every thing is stacked against us waiting for us to fail and and die.. take what makes you happy and channel it man..
grunge is better kept underground i think. i mean, id get so pissed off if a bunch of possers started listening to it. ive already got one posser at my school listening to "grunge", when the only thing he listens to is nevermind and superunknown. nevermind's not really grunge i reckon, he reckons this kinda mudhoney stuff's to sloppy...i mean come on, thats the point!
@DukeSecom You raise a good point. I'm not a big fan of Nirvana, but Soundgarden is definitely my thing. Superunknown, for some reason was Soundgarden's break through album that got them into the mainstream. Most bands end up towing the line at some point with "pop culture" to try and achieve a bigger fan base. Soundgarden's best album in my opinion is Badmotorfinger, and just listening to Ultramega OK, gives me that image of 4 friends in a garage/basement just enjoying making music.
why dont you guysstop worrying about grunge fading away. and you miss those eras. start a band play grunge. start rebelling. turn america to its grits.
Mudhoney is one of my all time favorite bands but to us it was a punk-band ... Grunge didn't mean anything to us ... Mudhoney people are fan of 60's punk, hardcore and detroit bands from the late 60's ... Punk !
I've seen Mudhoney 17 times; 12 with Matt Lukin on bass still (the original lineup; guy's cool but Matt rules!!) who wants to touch me? I SAID WHO WANTS TO FUCKIN TOUCH ME!?!? yeah I'm sick.... hehehe
@puddleauau Don't forget the Screaming Trees and Melvins! But yea it was a great time to be a teen all i needed back then was a pack of smokes some tunes and my skateboard.
@puddleauau I was born in 1994, but I found out about Nirvana and mudhoney just in like 2001 ... so ? doesnt matter when your born even in 2005 ... as long as you like 90's its good enough ;)
@stuckin91 actually, i was born in the 90's but i was talking about realy get into this movement, i dont car if i would be 40 years old today, i'd prefer to be a 40's man with great experiences like seen some of those amazing grunge bands live.
all i can see today is justin bieber, hannah montana, jonas brothers, avril lavigne...
@puddleauau I moved to Seattle from Florida in 1995, at age 25. I was already a grunge enthusiast, puddleauau. The vibe was electric. The music scene was all about bands trying to make it rich off of the wave the bands you mentioned created a few years earlier.
@puddleauau but thats only the early 90's, and if u were born in the 90's then most likely u would hav listened to this music as u would have been less than 10 years old...
@puddleauau I was born in the 90's and can't remember shit, very little memories. i'd rather been born in the 80's so i could grow up a little to remember what's going and watch these kickass groups start!
@RamonesSkater4life I was about to write the same thing until I saw your comment. Very true, I was born in 1990 but all those bands were popular when I was learning to walk.
@puddleauau Music today doesn't suck, you just have to look for it. good music has been pushed underground.
Yeah the radio sucks but there's a lot of cool things happening in indie rock right now. The White Stripes, The Black Keys, Queens of the Stone Age, Gorillaz, No Age, etc. I grew up in the 90's and trust me, it wasn't much different.
@puddleauau I feel your love man, but been born in the 90's you would have missed it. I was born in 68 and saw it all. Mudhoney, Sonic Youth, Fluid, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Steel Pole Bathtub, Hole, Horsey, Melvins, ... the list is long. The era started before the hype, 'round mid to late 80's. It was a huge sell out and heartbreak, yet perfect inside joke for us all at the time. Watch Hype.
If you were born in the 90's you still would of missed it....if you were born in the late 70's you def. would of seen it from the start.(grunge movement) I totally agree with you though...there's Nothing special about New Music...it's all recycled.
@puddleauau if you were born in 1990 you would not taste the grunge scene ... i was born in late 1980 and i did not realize that at that time (in the 90') was a "grunge" movement when i was about 10 years old...
Grunge was a style of music in the sense that it was raw, energetic, rebellious, and the bands had something to say. Ya each "Grunge" band sounded different, but we all know they were grunge regardless of how different each band might have sounded, because of that energy there music contained. I doubt there will ever be anouther time in music like the "Grunge' years.
@phaedres7681 great comment, phaedres. Back then, we had album after album that was filled with great songs. The 2010's have brought back the 1980's, God help us. The 1990's brought us Black Flag and Black Sabbath's love child.
@Skullrik: not to spoil your fun but Black flag and all other american hardcore bands like bad brains,minor threat mainly existed in the 80's and NOT the 90's, I see the 90's more as the end of the good 80's music with lots of bands like Scratch Acid,The sugarcubes,butthole surfers, greenriver,TAD,fugazi,the fluid + the beginning of The melvins.
I agree to the fact that there will probably never be another grunge era, basically because each decade had some genre that went along with it, i mean the mid - late 60's and earlier 70's had psychedelic, the late 70's had hair bands or what ever, the 80's for the most part had glam rock bands - earlier on and into the middle, while by 84 punk was starting to make an impact, and in the late 80's the pioneers of grunge started to appear,but thats just my thought. and music should be original.
Grunge was a label given to the Seattle bands by the media, Nirvana were more Punk, Pearl Jam resembled classic 70's rock and AiC, Soundgarden are more metal
Grunge is not about comparing any of the famous bands with eachother, because grunge was a music style with the plan of not having any particular sound... so nirvana is not like others... the same with other grunge bands...
Not sure I agree that these Seattle bands didn't have a plan of sounding a certain way. All songwriters hear in their heads a certain way they want to sound and then go about trying to make that sound a reality. Watch that Kobain doco called 'About a son' where he talks about wondering how to combine a heavy black Sabbath sound with a pop sensibility. All bands want to achieve the kind of sound that appeals to them.
Well sub pop at the time had a certain ethos, and there were lots of other lo fi indie labels too like Touch and Go, Domino etc. In my mind it was Husker Du that showed that you didn't have to compromise a hardcore sound with actual tunes. What the early 90's bands did was mix in a bit of stooges, black sabbath riffing etc
I have to say from the video footage I have seen of The Fluid and for them to impress punk legend Keith Morris they had to have fucking kicked so much ass.
Motherodeath: FUCK YOU!! Seattle is a beautiful city, with a beautiful history.
And evancasto: Nirvana is definately the greatest band from seattle, actually the greatest from the whole world. And not because of their popularity, but because of their LYRICS, DRUMMING AND VOIICE!
Melvins , Mudhoney ,Tad and countless others were the initiation and then came Nirvana .
It was all temporary but unfortunately it became a big deal .
It was over before anyone outside the west coast ever knew about it. I wish it had ended then . It was great . Spawned a whole slew of shitty music from there out. Thats showbiz.
Grunge was most associated with the sub-pop record label, Nirvana etc were on that label to start, but through things like association (and marriage) bands like Alice in Chains drifted into the scene, STP, SoundGarden and Perl Jam bringing more of a rock edge.Yet, the Grunge music scene, was more a sound associated with Mudhoney, Nirvana, Sonic Youth etc
(Feels the same) believe me, i do have....it's disgusting how i need to listen to all of theirs songs...and when it's my turn to put my music they are like ew wtf D:
@SemiToneBlew hey i thought im the only one who experienced this,when me and my friends were jamming,all my friends nly play bullet for my valentine,i think well okay since bfmv still sounds okay to me,but when i play songs like nirvana,pearl jam etc they were like "what are you playing man ?" 0_o
the people that listen to bullet for my valentine are not your friends if you like mudhoney, you are from different planets. Educate them if you think they deserve saving...
@Imptheshrimp yea,all my friends listens to bullet for my valentine,well they sounds awesome too but... i am the only one listens to alice in chains,pearl jam,nirvana,and mudhoney... i feel so lonely...
Mark Arm said this song is about his "D*ck". These guys are funny and have never taken themselves seriously. The video HYPE! covers them pretty well. Mudhoney and Mono Men seem like they'd be some fun guys to hang with.
note:
Steve Turner and his bad ideas has some good stuff to check out.
No offense, but I think most people who say Mudhoney is better than Nirvana only say that because Mudhoney never had mainstream success. In my opinion Kurt wrote better songs than Mark and has a better voice but I still love Mudhoney, I just love Nirvana more. I guess it's just a matter of taste. Peace
This band was way grungier than Nirvana or Pearl Jam. Lead singer Mark Arm actually invented the term grunge as it applies to Seattle bands!

Grunge was a style of music in the sense that it was raw, energetic, rebellious, and the bands had something to say. Ya each "Grunge" band sounded different, but we all know they were grunge regardless of how different each band might have sounded, because of that energy there music contained. I doubt there will ever be anouther time in music like the "Grunge' years.

@phaedres7681 great comment, phaedres. Back then, we had album after album that was filled with great songs. The 2010's have brought back the 1980's, God help us. The 1990's brought us Black Flag and Black Sabbath's love child.

@Skullrik: not to spoil your fun but Black flag and all other american hardcore bands like bad brains,minor threat mainly existed in the 80's and NOT the 90's, I see the 90's more as the end of the good 80's music with lots of bands like Scratch Acid,The sugarcubes,butthole surfers, greenriver,TAD,fugazi,the fluid + the beginning of The melvins.

I agree to the fact that there will probably never be another grunge era, basically because each decade had some genre that went along with it, i mean the mid - late 60's and earlier 70's had psychedelic, the late 70's had hair bands or what ever, the 80's for the most part had glam rock bands - earlier on and into the middle, while by 84 punk was starting to make an impact, and in the late 80's the pioneers of grunge started to appear,but thats just my thought. and music should be original.

Grunge was a label given to the Seattle bands by the media, Nirvana were more Punk, Pearl Jam resembled classic 70's rock and AiC, Soundgarden are more metal

Grunge is not about comparing any of the famous bands with eachother, because grunge was a music style with the plan of not having any particular sound... so nirvana is not like others... the same with other grunge bands...
Ninugget 2 years ago
Not sure I agree that these Seattle bands didn't have a plan of sounding a certain way. All songwriters hear in their heads a certain way they want to sound and then go about trying to make that sound a reality. Watch that Kobain doco called 'About a son' where he talks about wondering how to combine a heavy black Sabbath sound with a pop sensibility. All bands want to achieve the kind of sound that appeals to them.

Well sub pop at the time had a certain ethos, and there were lots of other lo fi indie labels too like Touch and Go, Domino etc. In my mind it was Husker Du that showed that you didn't have to compromise a hardcore sound with actual tunes. What the early 90's bands did was mix in a bit of stooges, black sabbath riffing etc
gaspanda 2 years ago
Well, those 5 years between 1988 and 1993 anyway...

Yes, that's another take on things. I haven't really heard much Husker Du but I know they are a well respected band and have been quite influential.

I have to say from the video footage I have seen of The Fluid and for them to impress punk legend Keith Morris they had to have fucking kicked so much ass.

Melvins , Mudhoney ,Tad and countless others were the initiation and then came Nirvana .
It was all temporary but unfortunately it became a big deal .
It was over before anyone outside the west coast ever knew about it. I wish it had ended then . It was great . Spawned a whole slew of shitty music from there out. Thats showbiz.

Grunge was most associated with the sub-pop record label, Nirvana etc were on that label to start, but through things like association (and marriage) bands like Alice in Chains drifted into the scene, STP, SoundGarden and Perl Jam bringing more of a rock edge.Yet, the Grunge music scene, was more a sound associated with Mudhoney, Nirvana, Sonic Youth etc

Mark Arm said this song is about his "D*ck". These guys are funny and have never taken themselves seriously. The video HYPE! covers them pretty well. Mudhoney and Mono Men seem like they'd be some fun guys to hang with.

No offense, but I think most people who say Mudhoney is better than Nirvana only say that because Mudhoney never had mainstream success. In my opinion Kurt wrote better songs than Mark and has a better voice but I still love Mudhoney, I just love Nirvana more. I guess it's just a matter of taste. Peace
