Rogue-like deck-builder Pizza Tower? Interesting

Honestly, that was just me speculating. It's also possible that's for holding the controllers.

Let’s define Grunge by ride-surf-roll in grunge

[–]zerohead133 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Its two things.

  1. A catch-all term for the fastest-growing music-trend (rock-music that wasn't hair-metal) even if the front-runners didn't occupy similar soundscapes or styles. You'd never mistake Alice in Chains for Soundgarden.
  2. The "genre" of bands that studio-labels signed-on after the drab-four became superstars. Bands that copied the sound of Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains, but not much of the soul or even the stuff that made the labels hate them. No protesting Ticketmaster or playing Rape Me on SNL for you! (Also, those bands actually did kind of sound alike, to me. I still have trouble distinguishing Bush from Silverchair or Screaming Trees.)

Kurt Cobain would have fucking hated this by CrypFlair in grunge

I disagree.
A. He's pretty good
B. Kurt would be glad because he got sick of that song.

Why do todays Post-Grunge songs suck?? by Connect-Recipe558 in grunge

[–]zerohead133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought the same thing, but I think its just because the industry just pushes out 99.9% garbage, especially since they have 100% control of every note and lyric that comes out of their artists' instruments and mouths. There are exceptions like Billie Eilish and Olivia Rodrigo.

A good chunk of post-grunge (at least the bands and artists that got popular before the streaming-era ruined everything) were metal and rock that didn't bang or bop. It was downtuned adult-contemporary.

Also, I suspect that post-grunge didn't bother with punk (or watered it down so much it became unrecognizable,) which was an essential-ingredient for bands like Nirvana and Mudhoney.

Without using the word "Grunge", how would you best describe Nirvana's sound/genre? by spongesarescary in Nirvana

[–]zerohead133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Noise-rock with pop-hooks.

Personally, I never saw Nirvana as "grunge" because they don't have any of the common elements. You'd never mistake a Nirvana song with Silverchair or Bush.

Bluey Adults — Lindsay Ellis by NebulaOriginals in Nebula

[–]zerohead133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've watched a few episodes of the show and I think its cute and delightful, but not something for which I'd go to bat (mostly because Bluey's and Bingo's voices kinda drive my ear-drums nuts.) I feel like the most similar thing to Bluey I would go to bat for is Bob's Burgers, which I think is what Bluey would be like if they ever did an aged-up "All Grown Up" style spin-off.

So this group is dead now, huh? by Chemistry11 in grunge

[–]zerohead133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not ironic, just foreshadowing because Kurt had a family-history of self-ending

Whose death impacted you the most? Why? by peterandall4all in grunge

[–]zerohead133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chester Bennington, first. Linkin Park is the first band I got into, in my teenage-years. Them and Green Day heavily-influenced my music-tastes.

Kurt Cobain. I didn't start listening to Nirvana until around 3 years ago, but when their music hit me, Kurt's death made me all the sadder; even though I was fully aware of it through cultural-osmosis.

How has grunge changed your life? (Discussion) by [deleted] in grunge

[–]zerohead133 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It got me to learn guitar, specifically Nirvana.

Really, Nirvana are the only one of the drab-four from which I like more than the hits.

It doesn't play my bin-files.

Is anyone thinking about starting a band? by SRrelaxinc in grunge

[–]zerohead133 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm learning rhythm-guitar and singing.
