Ok Comboomer posted:nobody says this Literally the first result when I googled "when did punk die" http://explosivepolitics.com/blog/1978-punk-is-dead-where-have-you-been/ quote:By late 1978, punk is dead. It had lost its energy while other youth movements moved in to takeover by which point it had gone ‘overground’ anyway, having largely been co-opted by the mainstream. Sid Vicious’ untimely death in early 1979 is seen as the symbolic termination point.

GWBBQ posted:Smash also has to be up there as far as cost of production vs revenue, it only cost a few thousand dollars. I wondered how Nirvana’s Bleach would compare, as it only cost about $600 to record (not sure about full production costs), but Smash sold 3x as many copies in the US alone, so never mind pun half-intended mostlygray posted:I still listen to the old stuff though. I play a few of their songs on guitar. I sing a lot of them all the time to irritate my kids. I just think something changed at "Factory Showroom" and I just decided I didn't like their stuff anymore. I only vaguely knew of TMBG in the ‘90s from the episode of Tiny Toon Adventures and, for some reason, Dr. Worm. My wife got me into them when I met her in 2000, and even after all that, my favorite work of theirs is still from was when it was just two guys with a guitar, an accordion, and a tape machine. Not that Flood and Apollo 18 (and sure, John Henry) aren’t great, but they were a little less… weird. They’re great live, at least they were in 2005 anyway.

I hope a lot of people (well mostly me and other old cranks with HBO) just see the Cobain biopic Montage of Heck and never listen to the music. Just whoa that guy was nuts but I don't listen to classic rock.

Ambitious Spider posted:In high school in the late 90s/early 2000s I was very indignant when I told someone asking about my dead Kennedy’s shirt that they were punk, and they responded “oh like offspring or Green Day!” I was a major pretentious rear end in a top hat with music for too long. I was the kid in high school who listened to bands like Mogwai, At the Drive-In, and Sparta and was the only person who had their t-shirts which were on constant weekly rotation. I also forsook Metallica by high school and was all in on Dream Theater and hailing Mike Portnoy as a drum god while poo pooing virtually all others, not realizing some drummers are considered great because of what they add to their genre, not how technical they are. I had a gently caress ton of growing up to do.

There were a couple tracks in the listing that were at least punk adjacent. Otherwise, I’d assume that was a parody.

How that’s labelled “punk” and not “pop/top100” just blows my mind. It is a standard NOW thats what I call CD.

Grunge was an aesthetic and a movement, but not really a specific sound. There are some common sonic elements, but they can kind of be attributed to '90s music in general. I don't think "real" grunge lasted all that long, since one of its core values was hating popular stuff, which is obviously unsustainable. Basically it was rock music that was dark but also wasn't metal. And then nu-metal filled in the gap between.
