Grunge, the Sound of Seattle

Grunge, sometimes known as the voice of Seattle, is a subgenre of rock derived from punk, alternative rock. It is believed that the term "grunge" comes from a relaxed pronunciation of the word "grungy" (slang used in English to say "dirty"),
The grunge spread worldwide during the first half of the nineties, mainly driven by the commercial success of Nirvana's album Nevermind and Pearl Jam Ten. This success catapulted the popularity of alternative rock and made grunge hard rock genre popular at the time. Despite this, many groups have always been uncomfortable with his superstar status and the appearance, because of the influence of the media, grunge movement, which in some cases even caused internal conflicts that led to separation from the death of some members

As a musical genre characterized by distorted guitars, catchy melodies and repetitive and heavy battery of punk and heavy metal heritage, being more complex than the punk melodies but without the heaviness of metal. The letters stand out for their grunge apathy and disenchantment and address issues such as alienation, (the phenomenon of personality suppress) the pursuit of liberty or social exclusion. Through these themes, the genre musicians showed their dissatisfaction with society and with the various prejudices of this, which approached both the punk and the generation X. However, not all grunge songs had these themes: a clear example is the song "In Bloom" by Nirvana-themed humor, and "Touch Me I'm Sick" by Mudhoney. concerts of these bands will also mark a difference from other music scenes, highlighted by his energy and temperament, as well as the simplicity of its staging, due to the rejection of high budgets and opulence that characterized so far the actions of many groups with commercial success.
