Pom is definately grunge. The only other place you could put POM in would be Alt rock if not grunge. Their sound, however, is heavilly influenced by other grunge artists and their work shows it.

POM aren't grunge they are alt. rock, I agree that their music is influenced by many grunge bands or artists and it does sound alike. But it's not only them many other bands are the exact same way where people ofter confuse bands with the same sound or similar sound as grunge. I have to admit it's difficult to spot but POM is definatley missing parts in their music that is related with grunge.

uh......hits must have somthing to do with how good the music is, if they dont get hits then consider them a sucky band. otherwise i dont see how they can be conisdered crappy.
Nickelback is more of a pop-rock kinda band more than a grunge band in my opinion

Mainstream popularity should be thrown out the window when it comes to talent. I know people who can play guitar than any other pop-rco, grunge, whatever band you can think of. And according to the music they play it really isn't that hard. Not only that, but the creativity in mainstream music has died to the point where every song there is a major rip from something. Nobody mainstream plays music to advance music, they lay to get fans, money, and women. Now their are some circumstances (Tool, classic rock bands, etc,) which are talented mainstream, but lets not got here. Quote:

they're both sh*tty bands in a huge pile of mediocre musicians fronted by an eddie vedder clone. theory of a dead man, creed, POM, and a ton of others, all sound the same, all have the same formula of catchy, bland lyrics and repetitive riffs. comparing them is like comparing falling to your death or getting shot. You can argue all you want about which is better, but in the end, they both suck horrible for all the same reasons.
