New post......and these won't be in chronological order, because that's for posers.

So we are going to make a slight time jump of about 20 years. Its not like I'm skipping 100+ years like some people. The 1990's the age of gangsta rap and grunge. Grunge is considered by many to be a sub genre of punk. The 1990's saw the rise of a little band from Seattle called Nirvana, due to Nirvana's success many other Grunge bands exploded on tho the scene, many would later call this the point when Punk Rock exploded into the mainstream. It was now cool to be the kid wearing flannel and ripped jeans. In high end fashion shows you no longer saw people wearing fancy black thin line dresses, but what was seen were people walking down runways wearing flannel. It seemed that punk rock had finally arrived, yet there are many who feel this wasn't the time for punk, but they believe it was 1994 with the commercial success of bands like Green Day and Rancid.Though these bands didn't have a massive impact on culture like Nirvana, they did bring what many felt was real Punk to the masses once again.
