Grunge

A musical style popularized in the mid-80s in the city of Seattle. It's a beautiful marriage of punk, metal and alternative rock. The result is a dirty, heavy and noisy guitar sound and a voice pushed to its maximum spewing the emotions of the singer's personal life. The popularity of grunge is also spreading in people's lifestyles and outfits. The end of grunge was marked by the death of Kurt Cobain, lead singer and guitarist of the world's most popular rock band, Nirvana. Today, many alternative rock bands have been influenced by Staley's powerful vocals, Grohl's squared and precise drum beats or McCready's brilliant guitar riffs.
Temple Of The Dog was qualified as a grunge band style.

Grunge

Fuck all these lengthy definitions, it’s just rock but emo.
Person 1: Have you tried grunge before?
Person 2: *tries grunge*
Person 2: society is collapsing. The capitalist coils by which we are bound by are eating away at the souls of the common man. The world is-
Person 1: SHUT THE FUCK UP I DO NOT CARE.

Post-grunge

Grunge that has been mixed with another genre to either appeal to a specific audience or so as to correctly represent the band stylistically.
The term originated as a derogatory slur for bands in the late 90's playing in the style of the early 90's grunge revolution.
However, while some bands WERE simply only using grunge stylings to either attract audiences or make money, many bands did, in fact, feel that their specific sound(s) required varying degrees of grunge influences, along with influences from other sources.

Examples:
Creed
3 Doors Down
Hinder
Foo Fighters
Trapt
Puddle of Mudd
etc.

Matchbox Twenty is not included due to the fact that the majority of their genre is a 70's rock mix, with only very limited influences from grunge.
Also, I have grudgingly included Creed on this list, simply because it is public opinion that they are not grunge simply because their first studio album was released in 1997. It is my belief, however, that Creed has an extremely large percentage of grunge influence, so much so that grunge is their most prevalent genre.
Person 1 is listening to music.
Person 2 walks up and says: God man, you're such a hypocrite for telling me you like grunge, and then going off and listening to this garbage!
Person 1: Who said that I can't listen to music that are similar? It's not like all post-grunge was made to commercially benefit from grunge!
