Grunge is a subgenre of alternative rock that emerged in the late 1980s and early 1990s in the Pacific Northwest region of the United States, particularly in Seattle and nearby towns. Grunge music is typically characterized by distorted electric guitars, grungy vocals, and a generally "sludgy" sound. It is often associated with the punk and indie rock genres, and is known for its dark, angst-filled lyrics. Grunge bands often drew influence from punk, metal, and classic rock, and the genre is often credited with helping to popularize alternative rock in the 1990s.
