Well put. It sucks even more though, cos I was like 5 when grunge was big, and I still have college kids shoving trash like AIC and Pearl Jam, and though they arent grunge, Red Hot Chili Peppers down my throat, while emo will probably be forgotten in 10 years.

The only good "grunge" was Nirvana, and later STP albums were alright, once they stopped ripping off Pearl Jam so hard. Theres so much better truly alternative music from 1991-1995, teenage fanclub, pavement, magnetic fields, superchunk, my bloody valentine, I dont know why anyone wastes theyre time listening to dozens of ex-hair metal bands trying to sound like Nirvana and Pearl Jam.
