Grunge

From HitStory, the pop encyclopedia of School of Rock · Genre

Grunge · In the late 1980s, around the small label Sub Pop in Seattle, a scene emerged that mixed punk and heavy metal into a raw, heavy sound. In January 1992 Nirvana's Nevermind knocked Michael Jackson's Dangerous off the top of the American album chart. Pearl Jam and Soundgarden also came from Seattle.
