In the tradistion of "Rastafarian" grunge describes an immage, attitude and genre of
music. The apperance was mainly modled on the man dubbed "The generation'
s spokesman" Kurt Cobain, and featured flannel shirts, torn jeans, converse trainers and baggy sweaters. The
music was very toned-down/ volume-up version of punk, but where punk was angry, grunge was disilusioned & generally dissatisfied escape to moan at the world.
Begun in seatle (Mainly by Kurt Cobain and the record-label "Sub-
Pop") in the early 90's and often called "Generaation-X" grunge was the last pure genre of
music we had.
