agree ? how could you not? as I see this site is full of youngins enjoy perfection.
I need to watch that one. I remember loving the AIC and STP ones.Its a good one. Nirvana killed it too
they were the first to do this unplugged and then the rest of the grunge followed even metalica did the unplugged.Its a good one. Nirvana killed it too
Yeah, I rate AIC marginally higher but its damn close.Its a good one. Nirvana killed it too

Unplugged started in '89, Nirvana wasn't the first.
Or did you mean first grunge act? Becauae if Pearl Jam is considered grunge, they did it in '92. I personally consider Pearl Jam just regular ol' alternative and not really grunge.
I've never understood why Smashing Pumpkins gets tagged as Grunge. Nothing about them is Grunge except the typical 90's alt-rock composition of instruments (guitar/guitar/bass/drums) and that a lot of that guitar is distorted. I'd say they're about as quintessential and example a band anyone could name of the broader Alternative Rock genre without belonging distinctively to any of its subgenres. It's not really Grunge or Post-Grunge or Goth or Emo or Hard Rock or anything else.i didn't know bands were doing it before nirvana. the 90s rock bands somehow are classified as grunge music. just like punk music. i have no idea why. but pearl jam was one. smashing pumpkins was considered as one though they sound gothic
Yeah, it doesn't make sense. Maybe its the association with Butch Vig. I don't understand how you could listen to Gish and come away thinking they were a grunge band.I've never understood why Smashing Pumpkins gets tagged as Grunge.
