    Yep, that's a good list. I'd replace hair bands with pop-punk, though. Hair metal is so awesomely moronic that it just kinda makes me laugh... everything else on the list makes me want to kill myself.

    wow. that's a pretty bold and broad statement. so every rock band on an independent label is garbage to you? maybe you should try listening to some of it. and how are you gonna bunch them all into one catergory. i think you should explain yourself on this one or maybe you shouldn't have posted it at all.

    supergroups
    screamo
    emo
    goth
    skater-punk

    in response to the 'indie' statement: Indie is more of a recording style than a music style. Virtually every band starts off as an indie band in some way or another, so to say that you hate it is like saying you hate all bands when they start out which is pretty ludicrous.

    here's a silghtly off topic but interesting question.

    when would you say that 'post grunge' started?
    and who were the first 'post grunge' band?
