    I'm one of those people who doesn't really like the whole "grunge" term, considering none of these bands really sound all that much alike, but here goes anyway:

    1.Alive
    2.Smells Like Teen Spirit
    3.Spoonman
    4.Would?
    5.Lithium
    6.Even Flow
    7.Hunger Strike
    8.Black Hole Sun
    9.Rooster
    10.Corduroy


    Not necessarily in that order, but those are my essentials.
    2003: Toronto
    2005: Kitchener/Hamilton/Toronto
    2006: Toronto 1 & 2
    2008: Hartford/EV Toronto 1 & 2
    2009: Toronto/Philadelphia 3 & 4
    2010: Buffalo
    2011: Montreal/Toronto 1 & 2/Hamilton
    2013: London/Buffalo/Vancouver/Seattle
    2016: Toronto 1 & 2

    I'd hafta say the epitome of grunge for me is prolly:

    Interstate Love Song or Big Empty - the soft, the introspective, the hard, the crush, the cacophany. Songs that Small Town, Daughter, Betterman just didn't get hard enough to become.... I can see All or None getting there on an extended jam perhaps...

    Filling out the top 10:
    Smells Like Teen Spirit
    Jeremy, Alive, Release, Corduroy
    Creep
    Black Hole Sun, Black Days (but c'mon, Day I tried to Live!)
    Over Now or Nutshell


    Grunge isn't quite punk and all these bands can kinda pull off this alt Punk / surf punk / bubblegum punk kinda sound (comatose, lukin). It's not straight out rock and roll and all these bands can pull those tunes off too.

    Big Empty and Interstate Love Song (along with Black Days and Black Hole Sun) just epitomize the grunge feel to me. Could be acoustic, but ya know you like it electric. Just a soft little song with a hard core (haha I'll leave that.)

    I dunno, Big Empty just slays me: her dizzy head is conscience laden

    WTF?!?@?@ Just the perferct freakin words, incredible evocotive emotive lyrics and music. Amazing....

    Kinda like Ten. or Yield.

    to me the grunge word doesnt make any sense
    for me alot of the so called grunge bands reminded
    me of early seventies kiss albums which i would call rock
    grunge to me i'd prefer if they called them punk or rock

    maybe thats what i mean ,im not sure

    Fell On Black Days - Soundgarden
    Creep - STP
    Piece of Pie - STP

    The list has no Pearl Jam songs. Not because I don't love Pearl Jam. I do. But they're not grunge. I don't care if they're from Seattle. Their music isn't slow and sludgy enough to be grunge. I love them more than the above-mentioned bands. Although I do like these bands
