Let's imagine that I wanted to feel miserable, with similar songs as Fell on Black Days, which ones do you recommend? I don't know much about bands that are not AIC or Pearl Jam, so any suggestion is welcome, thanks
My bands new bass player, which i went to elementary with a while ago, we were talking about underground music and brought up this local band from seattle! I got super excited and threw the debut on, and loved it. No idea if anyone has posted about them yet, but their streams on amazon, youtube, and spotify are ridiculously small and they deserve a lot more attention.
Fell off! Thats their name, ill leave a link to their spotify under this. I got a grunge, physicadelic sound from it, if that makes any sense whatsoever, and if it doesn't just listen and you'll get it lol Yea i enjoy these guys a lot and they're totally worth a listen!

I just started listening to these guys and love their music. Their last album was a made back in like 2016 though, does anyone know if they’re still making music and if there will be another album?
We're called FLOWERS from Milwaukee, WI.
New (ish) video by GLU filmed on Brighton pier 🤡🍦🚬 also on Spotify
i dropped a new punk rock /emo rap song i would love any honest feedback!! link in the comments <3
What are everyone’s thoughts on late 2010 or 2020s post grunge? Post-grunge is a dirty word that conjures up some pretty disturbing music (such as Nickelback, Creed, 3 Doors Down ect). But some of the more recent post grunge bands I think are fantastic. Here are a few:
And this final band some people may not put in the grunge category…I still think they’ve got a grunge thing going on and that’s “Mannequin Pussy”
So i just listened thru their breakthrough album February Son today and I liked it a good deal- probably a highlight of the cesspool that was 2nd wave post grunge. They released it in 1999 and it was a decent success going gold the next year with 2 of their signature songs charting well especially Why I'm Here (which does sound like Heart-Shaped Box)
I was a first time Nirvana fanboy ever since i was in my teens, but the last five years or so i cant stop revisiting Pearl Jam's Ten whilst i have stopped listening to Nirvana almost totally. Give or take, both albums have great songs. But damn, Ten sounds so freaking great every time i listen to it. Truth be told, im also a massive MLB fan so that might be of some influence.
But man, back to PJ: Black, Garden, Even Flow, Alive. They're all masterpieces not only musically but also lyrically. Eddie's dark yet haunting voice fits perfectly. To me, Ten is a timeless masterpiece. Nevermind sounds so super polished when you listen to it. In regard of that, Kurt went to write songs for In Utero wich is much more how he wanted Nirvana to really sound imo.
I know Nirvana and PJ had a feud back in the day that i never really understood really, it had something to do with selling out? I just dont really understand that, to me their all musicians and i just really appreciate that!
Hi all, I recently got into grunge/metal music and am looking for some female led bands from the 90's and 2000's, mainly because I don't see a lot of women fronted bands when I'm looking for new music. For reference, I've been listening to electric wizard, interpol, she wants revenge, and sanguis et cinis if that helps. Any recommendations are appreciated. Thanks!
Edit: Just wanted to thank all of you who commented since I probably won't reply to you all. Definitly have a lot to listen to!!
I weren't even born when grunge came and went, but I still got a fair understanding of what grunge meant in men's clothing (the whole thing about wearing what you have, not caring about putting up an outfit and things like that) from places like this subreddit. To me that a really interesting topic, but I can't really find how this whole scene and its values made its way into women's fashion besides the classic babydoll dress and red lipstick of Kat and Courtney. So if you have any information or interesting things to share about this, I would be very grateful to hear from you all!! :)
