I don't agree with the experts though...
They were grungy but not grunge IMO, unless you count the "mirror ball" album Neil did with Pearl Jam which was very grungy, but melodic at the same time...
the problem I have with "grunge" on the whole is that it sounds messy and un-melodic.
back to one of the original posts....Nirvana took an original sound like the NY & CH sounds and made them their own, thus creating a new sound in rock music...
was never a big fan of Grunge though, I like Pearl Jam, some of Soundgarden's material but very little of anything else including Nirvana (the exception being their 'unplugged' album)...
that said, what Nirvana did was give rock the kick in the ass it needed because it had become sterile and predictable IMO...
would you count Grohl's Foo Fighters as grunge or alt-rock?
