Hey there. I'm very much into heavy metal and rock myself, and I don't care for some of the "new" stuff, though admittedly I like a good portion of it as long as it's nice and heavy. However, the area that I live is full of people who enjoy either country or "modern" music like, for example, Justin Beiber or however the heck you spell his name.

The reason I felt like replying is because I noticed that in the town I live, it seemed like a lot of the rock fans just died out or disappeared. But I'm noticing a big comeback now with rock and even heavy metal, which is awesome. So have faith, rock isn't dead, and I just heard somewhere, I believe it was on TV, though it may have been the radio, a quote that really inspired me. That quote was something to the effect of, "Rock and Roll isn't dead, it just took a breather. But if you notice now, suddenly it's making a comeback, and it's going to kick other genre's of musics' teeth out in doing so."

I don't see how rock has ever been dead. People have listened to rock music as long as it has existed. People have always been talking about the death of rock. But there has always been bands playing rock. Maybe today there are not as visual "scenes" like there were in the 60s (hippies), 70s (punk), 80s (glam, thrash metal) and 90s (grunge). Because today it's easier to listen to new music than it was when there was no internet. Today if a band decides to record some songs, they don't need to hire an expensive studio. They can use cheap-ish recording softwares like Cubase and record good quality music. Then they just upload them to Youtube and Soundcloud and Facebook and millions of people can listen to their music, no matter where they live. Before internet there were this kind of "scenes". In the 80s LA was the Glam city and San Francisco was the Thrash city. And in the 90s Seattle was the grunge city. But today you can pretty much play whatever music wherever.

You take a genre like classic rock for example, thousands of bands are lumped in to that.
Van Halen, GNR, Thin Lizzy, Boston, whatever.

Grunge is the same way, Soundgarden, Nirvana, Mudhoney, Green River, Mother Love Bone.

Then you take a band like Zeppelin that gets lumped in with classic rock but they are far more diverse than that.
the same can be said with Pearl Jam. they cover a whole lot more ground than those other bands apart from maybe Soundgarden or nirvana's unplugged performance ever did.

so yeah.
This is grunge, but someone might claim it as classic rock
