How would you define grunge music? Can you post some examples? When I looked some info on the genre I notice there are apparently sub genres within grunge itself.

I always thought KISS and hair metal was corny not sure why some rock fans are mad that it died off. It is actually good that it did...
Believe it or not 'Soulflower' KISS was a huge influence on MANY of the bands from Seattle. By the same token, some of the 80's rock bands tried to somewhat distance themselves from KISS so as not to be associated with a "70's band". Unfortunately, rightly or wrongly KISS decided to ride the coattails of the same bands that THEY obviously influenced during the "hair metal" era. Go figure ( ). Just thought I'd clarify that. Great thread.
