It was time for "Hair Metal" to die. It had become a parody of itself by the late-'80s. The slate needed to be wiped clean to separate the talented from the bands simply cashing in on the look, the trend, and the lifestyle that went along with it. Thank you, Nirvana and the short-lived Grunge scene!

No surprise😉 as far as global pop went hair metal was never on top: it went from punk to new wave to hip hop. Grunge was killer, Cobain (and Grohl) a genius, but we had been punks had been through this. Nevertheless! I was a massive fan of Nirvana and Cobain’s death broke my FKG heart almost as much as Lennon’s.

I was into the hair metal scene & hip hop & when that song came out, people lost their minds. It was so influential that the music industry dropped hair metal & mined the Seattle area of all its bands, both good and bad. The term grunge was invented to give the media a buzz word to use for those Seattle bands, but those bands were not the same. Nirvana was different from Pearl Jam which was different from Soundgarden which was different from Alice in Chains & so on. Lot of great bands came out during that time & a lot of musicians left us way too early. And, out of the ashes of Nirvana rose the Foo Fighters.

Ned again fellas. I'm an old NYC Punker from the 1980s and remember Dave's teenage band Dain Bramage's advert in Hardcore punk magazines like Maximum Rock n Roll. He was already doing that beat back then which if you listen to it is a kind of half paradiddle between the snare and bass drum. Then he replaced the drummer in Scream who were a pretty legendary Wash DC band. The pre Grohl Nirvana played in NYC at the Pyramid club as the OPENING band for RAT AT RAT R. After they got famous half of the scene swore they were there. I know one or two guys who were there and said they were great. Iggy Pop was there too.

You can see it happening in the late 80ies with Guns & Roses. May also want to check out Janes Addiction (Nothing Shocking or Ritual De Habitual albums)- they were right in that limbo period between metal and grunge in late 80ies early 90ies.

Yankovic explained that the song would be about Cobain's incomprehensible lyrics, to which Cobain replied, according to Yankovic, "Oh, sure, of course, that's funny."

Grunge started in Seattle. Where it rains a lot and depression is widespread. Somebody I know from there said you had to take a Prozac with your morning coffee. The band was from the poorer side of town and they wore that style clothing, which was always old, until manufacturers started making them that way and went on to set a trend. At least some of the band members had troubled home lives. Grunge: dark, gritty, and with attitude.

something tells me you guys would like Nirvana's "Scentless Apprentice". the drums are very hip hop sounding. the term "grunge" was more of a umbrella term for all the bands from the Seattle. most/all the bands from seattle were actually different sounding from each other, from bluesy/straight forward rock (Pearl Jam, Screaming Trees), to Sabbath/Zep inspired bands (Soundgarden), metal tinged (Alice In Chains) and punk sounding (Nirvana/ Melvins). the one thing that they had over most bands of the time was the community between the bands and the scene, itself. the term Grunge turned into a fashion term shortly, with all the flannel, and torn jeans. this was the direct opposite of the glam metal from L.A at the time, a more serious, introspective look at lyrics and music, other than the "look at me" attitude. have you guys heard Phantogram's "Fall In Love"? the song is from 10-ish years ago. i recently found that song on an old ipod last night and shit bangs!

I went skiing the weekend after this album dropped. Someone in our group played it non-stop all weekend. Never stopped.

When this song hit, it ended so many 80’s bands and it was a shot between the ears…

Great reaction, guys! This song was a showstopper, wasn’t it? Since you are David Bowie fans, you should check out Nirvana’s cover of The Man Who Sold the World. It’s fantastic!

Isn't it crazy how drummer Dave Grohl from Nirvana forms the Foo Fighters but isn't the drummer? He's an epic musician and I love everything the Foo Fighters put out. Great reaction! (And Heart came out of Seattle too)

"OH well! Whatever! Nevermind!" - the mantra of the young misunderstood GenXer! I seriously need a flux capacitor and a DeLorean. I'd stay in the 90s

I read a great article years ago about the Evolution of "Grunge". So ...NW Pacific Coast cities are notorious for grey, gloomy , drizzle rainy weather.☹️ Lots of INDOOR FUN needed to be had... listening to their PARENTS music from the 60's and early 70's. These 90's era musicians were basically brought up on Mom and Dads music. Heavy guitar running through all of it. Greatness round 2 🎵❗
