| disolitude said: lol at listing foo fighters, STP, nickleback and Alice in chains's new album as grunge. Listing those bands as "alternative" would be pushing it, but grunge? STP used to be grunge for a record or two while it was popular to be grunge, as were alice in chains with their 3rd album, but the other 2 aren't even close to grunge. Foo Fighters is a rock band and Nickleback is in a crap category on its own. As far as alice in chains new record, would underground metal sites like this review it if it was grunge? http://www.metal-rules.com/review/viewreview.php?band=alice in chains&album=&post_by=&rating=&month=&year=&pos=0 I don't think so... |
I didn't say grunge. I said Post-grunge. That IS their genre. Foo Fighters is seen as the initiator of the Post-Grunge Genre.
If you're trying to call the new album Metal, listen to "California". And yeah, they would. Hardcore Metal Sites have reviewed my 2nd favorite band Magna-Fi's second album (VerseChorusKillMe), and I'm not sure what they are (I'd call them Alternative), but I wouldn't call that album metal, and I'm a metal fan and a grunge fan.
