If artists were about 'the music' and not money perhaps you can point me in the direction of all the best critically acclaimed grunge albums released on independent labels between 1994 & 2000.

In other words critical acclaim and an independent label determines weither or not a band is in it for the music and not the money, thats essentially what you are saying.
And grunge, while hardly significant by todays standards, was a credible musical movement, it is by no means one of the worst things to have happened to music, you need to save that term for something far more deserving, like brit pop.
