Exactly! Helmut is on Wikipedia as Alternative Metal, I just consider them as Alternative Rock.

edit: with all the sub-sub-sub-genres of Heavy Metal, do they really need Alternative Metal? seems like an oxymoron.

DON'T trust wikipedia with genres. To them, Cake is college rock. No joke!

Most of their fans are college dip****s so it's pretty fitting.

Wiki has The Clash down as "Punk Rock" not Art Punk, so I trust them a bit more than JGuy Proto-Post-Grungeman.

I'd have stopped at "JGuy Post-Grungeman". That's actually not bad.

RYM I guess? No site is particularly great, but RYM is better than most.
