Alternative Music (Music Genre)

Alternative music was a phrase invented in early 80s describing bands which broke from the barrage of pop and hair metal and formed a new direction of more focused and honest rock. It includes many subcategories including but not limited to; Grunge, Hard Rock, Rock, Experimental Rock, Progressive Rock, Gothic Rock, Punk Rock, Hardcore Punk, New Wave. Alternative rock music is really a name given to rock music that didn’t fit any other genre. However, the technical meaning is usually any rock music that descended from punk rock. The popularity of alternative rock music came about after the grunge period. Grunge was a type of alternative rock music that denounced commercialism.
