RE: Trent Reznor Reveals Why 90’s Grunge Era Was Better Than ‘Shitty’ Modern Rock - (My thoughts)

in #steemit7 years ago

I don't think SJWs will create a musical backlash. I just don't see there being a connection. I'm not even sure the "Rock is the Devil's Music" crowd caused grunge.

Sort:  

Grunge came about because people were tired of hairbands and fake celebrities. Different counter culture.
Goth industrial and Heavy metal were all about pissing off the religious zealots.

Good stuff doesn't come from just trying to piss people off. If pissing self-righteous people off is a side effect though, I can't fault it.

Its a perfect storm that is necessary. I agree.
But when you can make a lot of people angry super easily it works very well to increase sales. Its free advertising especially when the things said and done didn't do anything morally wrong.
