What Is Alternative Rock???... can som1 define it.. or xplain it... appropiately?

In this thread... we\'d talk ab what we think ab this genre.. of songs. We know... U2 , NirvanaRed Hot Chilly Peppers & Pearl Jam are the veterans by who the world recognised Alterantive Rock.

Then... at the 90\'s and Late 90\'s , Bands lik Radiohead, Coldplay.. showed up.. who called thmselves Brit Rocks..but defntly inspired frm Alternative Rock as far as Music is concerned.

In the 20th century, we hav bands lik Creed, Staind (who are somwht called Heavy Metal to a lot of ppl... tht makes thm \"altermetal\") , Lifehouse, The Calling , Disturbed, Linkin Park , Limpbizkit , Greenday, Bush, Audioslave, Deftones, 3 Doors Down, Evanscence, Godsmack , Goo Goo Dolls, Hoobastank, Nickleback, Papa Roach, POD,System Of A Down.

Obviously there are lot more bands... of this genre.But these are the Ones I prefer to listen And its got many more subgenres... lik new age metal, hiphop, etc.

Bangladesh eo Most of the underground bands... ei genre takei pradhanyo dichhe tader influence hishebe... Lik we hav allready had Arbovirus, Nemesis, Ashor, dNA, Icons, Breach.....and not to mention Black..who are the 1st to attempt this here. And They are pretty succesful up2 Now....

So.... what are the bands U lik.... to listen.. foreign Bands....deshi bands...????
What do U think of this genre..????

Nirvana is (was) Grunge
LP...some say they're nu-metal but i'd say they fall into the hard rock genre with a nu-metal mix
Green day is definitely Punk, no doubt about it
Godsmack, System of a down, Disturbed = Nu-metal

Limp Bizkit n Fred Durst sucks. No offence (but i do like their cover of "Behind blue eyes" and "Rollin" )

I mostly listen to all kinds of rock/metal (kintu bolbo na i know everything about the genres). Based on your post and the list of bands you've mentioned as "alternative", i would say that it makes a lot of people confused

hmm. . me2.

Actually, ALternative Rock Genre tai stil confusing to me..... where has this ALTERNATIVE thing come frm?..

I see... the Diffrnt sets of styles getin a lil apart frm Metal and Rock.. al the other Genres fall in2 this ALTERNATIVE genre. thts how.. I can simplify it..

Cz nu_metal is Alternative.... as Its New..

But still... keu specific vabe kichu jene thakle lekhen.. Im still too confused.

There are lots of other Sub-Genres.. in ALTERNATIVE

Tool is ........Alternative Metal + Progressive Rock .

Pearl Jam is .....ALternative.

U2 is PUre ALternative.. theres No doubt.!!

Nirvana is called "Grunge rock". But to me.. ther are One of front-runners. in uplifting this Genre. ALTERNATIVE.


bUT.. WHT about Radiohead, Travis , Coldplay ?? ... I see them bein called ''brit rock". But isnt it Too close to ALternative?

YAS.ITS DIFFICULT 2 MENTION D GENER OF ROCK.....
AS 4 EXAMPLE...LINKINPARK.... THY R BASICALLY HIP HOP ALTR-ROCK... BUT THR NEW ALBM M2M IS A HIP HOP METAL................MIND IT DAT GODSMACK IS HEAVY MEATL......

4 ALTR-ROCK IN OUR COUNTRY BLACK, ARBO REALLY JOSH
