Who likes Grunge?

[Geraint Jones]

Some genres are not executed technically perfect........nor should they be.
They are about the message, be it political, depressing, wishful, etc.
Sometimes we need a mirror held before us to make us aware of the direction we're going, whether it be good or bad.
I wasn't a fan of grunge per se, although I do love me some good flannel.
I also rather liked this.

There is a lot of music I like just because it almost resets my ears. I like Grunge when I just want my music to be a little muddier and less clear. My musical moods change quickly and for no apparent reason so I'd never cut out an entire genre.

I still say some bands like Meat Puppets, Mud Honey, Pearl Jam, Nirvana (sorry if you gagged reading that), Sonic Youth, Sound Garden, and many others have added to my appreciation of music without taking anything away.

I feel about the same.

Also, I remember seeing the Meat Puppets a few times when I was in Tulsa, around late '82 or early '83. This was in their hardcore days. One time they were so trashed, it took several bars before they all knew what song it was. The drummer was speeding out of his mind and then threw up. Ah, those were the days!

Reminds me of the time I saw Suicide Machines and the singer tried to end the set using the song they opened with. Luckily the drummer knew what was up.

Nu Metal gets a unfair rap I think. I like Korn, especially their early stuff! I'd like to see Korn live. Apparently they are still doing concerts - found out about it while killing time on facebook. there's a sony contest where you can win tickets, it was easy enough to register for so i signed up and am really hoping to snag some tickets

its going down in NY this November and if you don't live nearby, you can win free airfare or something. anyways heres the link if ure interested: http://www.facebook.com/sonyentertainment
