Nirvana were mostly punk rock but also indie/alternative but definitely not grunge. The only album of theirs close to grunge would be Bleach. It did say on Kurt's death certificate under occupation 'punk rock' as well. Most people don't think of them as punk because whenever punk is brought up these days bands such as Sum 41, Blink 182 and Good Charlottle just to name a few are brought up. But they aren't punk, they are power pop.
grunge wasn't to describe a band sound, it was what they wore & where they came from, its not a genre.
These bands - Nirvana, Pearl Jam, SoundGarden, Alice in Chains were all label as 'grunge', but none of them sounded the same, its was just because they came from Seattle.
Grunge basically means earlys 90s bands from Seattle.
actually "grunge" has been described as a genre to be a mesh of punk and metal. and i don't think Kurt, Dave or Krist ever considered themselves grunge.
the media came up with that stupid name
// i don't think Kurt, Dave or Krist ever considered themselves grunge.
they considered themselves as punk rock, I have it on video.
Whenever that name came up they made fun of it, Dave still does!!
Quote from Dave, "Grunge was never born, so grunge will never die".
neither most of these other bands people are writing down such as sommerset, propaghandi, the ataris, lagwagon, good charlottle, me first and the gimme gimmes, nofx, dropkick murphys, most of what Amz plays on her show, even Millencolin. but Nirvana actually are punk, most people wouldn't agree if they consider any bands i just listed punk.
i think nirvana wernt labeled punk because they didnt have so much political lyrics, or as lots of "punk" bands nowadays do, palm mutes on theyre songs. i think nirvana had a punk attitude though, which nowadays counts for alot more than dress style *cough* avril good charlotte *cough*, and other "punk" things. Normally though I refer to Nirvana as punk rock, or grunge *cringe*.
i personally think they look more gothic than anything, with full white faces black clothes and all wearing those 'gothlet' bracelet things they look gothic as hell, no way near mansons level but still....
awww...i loke good charlotte. i know they're not "punk" but i still like some of their songs. i've seen them live twice, and they put on a pretty decent live show.
