Grunge Seattle
I chose to do my research project on Seattle Grunge. Seattle was known as a prosperous city with companies like Boeing and Microsoft led the way in Seattle as the biggest corporations there. Seattle is also one of the stranger cities in the United States as well, there are more unsolved serial killings there than any other place in the U.S. Toss in the constant rain and a end of the continent isolation and "countless other ingredients that makes rock and roll reinvent itself every few years, and you have a movement" (Grunge Seattle). That movement was Grunge music. This book explains how something like Grunge music formed in Seattle and the impact that it had as well.

This is an interesting topic. I've never learned much- or anything- about it. I'd like to know more- you've said that the book details it, but what characteristics make the music Grunge music? How would you describe Grunge music? I'm curious.
ReplyDeleteI also think this is an interesting topic. I would like to know more about the aspects which make Seattle a place to create grunge music. Seattle has always been a very interesting place to me, with all the parts of the city. I hope I get the chance to read your paper!
ReplyDeleteI think this is a really cool topic and not many other people would've thought about choosing it. I'm really excited to read your paper once you continue down this path, because Grunge has always fascinated me and I feel that people don't think of it very often. Grunge Seattle was a pioneer for "differences" and I think it's really interesting that that's what interests you.
