Post-grunge is a subgenre of alternative rock that emerged in the mid-1990s as a derivative of grunge, using the sounds and aesthetic of grunge, but with a more commercially acceptable tone. This made post-grunge bands like Foo Fighters, Nickelback, Creed and Matchbox Twenty among the most commercially successful rock acts of the late 1990s and early 2000s.

This is a place for news, reviews, videos and discussion of your favorite post-grunge bands.


RULES:

  • Rule 1: "Artist - Song (Year)" Format and Informative Titles Posts only - If you are submitting a song include the artist and song name in the title. If posting a discussion/news, title it appropriately. Give readers a good idea of what the discussion/news entails.

  • Rule 2: Images / Video Links / Memes - Don't spam r/postgrunge with images and video links without discussion. You should be able to add your 2 cents to the post and not try and karma mine. Memes are permitted within good taste and must be post-grunge themed.

  • Rule 3: Leaks and Piracy - No posting illegal download links, leaks or asking for leaks. Breaking this rule will result in at least a 2 week ban.

  • Rule 4: Reposts & General Posting Guidelines - No reposting of songs/topics within two months of each other. Please check that your song or topic hasn't been posted within that time. Please refrain from posting a band's material if you or another user has submitted the same band in the past 24 hours.

  • Rule 5: No Full Album or Spotify Posts - No "Full Album" YouTube posts. Try to just post one song at a time. Please use YouTube for song posts as it is a free service.

  • Rule 6: Self-promotional spam - Posting your own band is allowed, but know the rules. We encourage learning about new bands and love when they stop by and post a new video. But if you drop a video and leave, we will label it as spam.

  • Rule 7: Selling/Trading - Ticket sales, ticket trades, and other offers where money is involved are not permitted

  • Rule 8: Don't be an asshole - Don't be an asshole. Before you post or reply to a comment, think "Am I being an asshole?" If you're like, "....yeah, I'm being an asshole." Stop, go look at yourself in the mirror, and self reflect. Once you're good, come back and be a good person. We're a community here, let's act civil.

  • Rule 9: "It's not post-grunge" - Ok so this is a difficult one to enforce as the definition of post-grunge isn't usually the same for everyone. However, there's certain songs and bands that just are not post-grunge.

Post-Grunge Workout (Spotify Playlist)

Hey everyone!

I have created a pure (mostly checked using Wikipedia) Post-Grunge workout playlist.

My goal of the playlist was to keep it short, heavy, and diverse.

I am still looking to make the playlist more diverse by adding new Post-Grunge bands from the 2010s.

For now, enjoy!
