Depressing, loud, self-important syle of rock music and dress emerging from the depressing, loud, self-important Seattle scene of the late 1980s. Dominant from the release of Nirvana's Nevermind in 1991 until the suicide of Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain in 1994. Grunge musicians and fans seemed deeply opposed to fun, which had long attracted players and listeners to rock music. Grunge bands sounded like Goth music played by a heavy metal band stoned on Robitussin, and they stole their clothes from street junkies, many of whom were actually in Grunge bands and later died of heroin overdoses. Much of Grunge was falsely blamed on the miserable but brilliant Kurt Cobain, who thus became so depressed that he found it necessary to suck on the barrel of a shotgun. No one who had ever listened to Seattle music was surprised in the least.
Steve formed a Grunge band because he had a huge guitar amp and the fashion sense of a hobo.
When I got a job, I returned all my Grunge clothes to the Salvation Army dumpster.
I have just listened to several hours of Grunge and am trying to decide whether to hurl myself off a skyscraper, shoot myself in the head, or overdose on heroin.

1. basically crap
2. basically crappy music listened to by liberal jerkholes all about "ooooooh my life is so depressing....its all about me .....im such a cockyassed bitch who only cares about myself......cry" They pride themselves in saying that they brought an end to hair metal but hey they didnt. Hair Metal's downfall was for the most part internal. They kinda killed themselves see my definition for hair metal

Another crappy genre of modern crappy rock.You can't tell one band from the next because they all sound so similar.Nirvana was the only grunge band worth a fuck.
Yup grunge sucked just like hair metal sucked and just like nu metal sucked and just like emo sucks now.

Blatant rip-off of the UK's great punk scene by where it was deemed o.k for students the world over to avoid washing, dye their hair purple, be depressed and go on and on about the world owing them a fucking living. Thank fuck it died on it's arse. Boooring.

a distortion that was used into guitars in the late 80s and mid. 90s. this distortion was so creative that it made some of the best bands people ever see.
it was said that Nirvana created grunge but they only put it on the billboard music awards. It fell into deep sleep after kurt cobain was shot( there is evedince against courtney love murdered him) then its last step into sleep was when the lead singer for alice in chains died after a over dose.
nirvana is the god of grunge but there are other bands out there. I myself is starting a grunge band check out our myspace our grunge bands name is Time will tell.
