3.1 Conclusion
So let's summarise what we've found out about the phenomenon called grunge.
It was originally used for the early Seattle bands and their sound. Then
with Nirvana's breakthrough the word grunge was used for the much cleaner
and more commercial sound of the modern grunge bands. The music business
and the media all made money with this new phenomenon. A grunge fashion
was established and the musicians got a very uncommercial attitude which
was directed against the media as they didn't want to be exploited by it
anymore. Kurt Cobain killed himself and Eddie Vedder found ways to avoid
the mass media attention. So grunge was declared dead. But the media found
new targets in the new grunge bands who worked together with it. Today
the word grunge is nothing more than a designation for a musical style
which is a mixture between punk, heavy metal and rock. As I already said
at the end of 2.1.2 it has become a vogue word and was thus alienated from
its original meaning of which there is not much left.
3.2 Literary Sources
I'm sorry but I can't write down all my sources here because I have got
many texts from the Internet of which I simply don't know anymore where
they are from and as my brother has sold our modem and as I hadn't got
the time I couldn't surf in the Internet to find out the locations. Further
there may be things from many not mentioned texts as I have read very much
about grunge. I have only used very few texts but I also wrote a lot of
things from what I remembered.
Please write me if you have any questions, suggestions,
comments, complaints or whatever!
I want and I need your response to make this page
perfect or at least a bit better!
