🤣
History is forgotten so quickly.

There will be a second wave if enough people want to start one 😄 I mean people still like music over one hundred years old and try to make it again. Like in the year 2100 perhaps they will have another go at what is around today.

Nah, the Melvins may have eventually transcended the genre, bit it's impossible to discuss the early years of grunge without mentioning the Melvins. Gluey Porch Treatments & Ozma are grunge classics as are even their mid-period stuff such as Houdini and Stoner Witch.
anyways, I agree with Paladisiac. There's no question that grunge had it's own sound like most genres. Alice In Chains went so far as to dramatically change their sound from their debut Facelift - which was extremely interesting alternative metal in its own right- to Dirt. And despite being considered posers at the time because of it, AIC created one of the defining albums of the scene with Dirt. I kind of think it as the Pyromania of the grunge scene. Sure it's polished as hell and has obvious commercial aspirations, but , damn, if every song just doesn't suck you in all the same.
And yes, loud, scuzzy guitar rock with balls will return at some point. We're probably not that far away as Space pointed out.
