Comment:

My friend told me she really liked the grunge mix I made her (in actuality it was a modern alternative rock mix, a la Live, Bush, Pearl jam, etc). So, I proceeded to school her in the ways of grunge-rock. The Groundhogs, musically doesnt exactly fit, The Groundhogs were the first to have the grunge tag applied them by none other than Lester Bangs...

I've always thought that Die Kreuzen was the first grunge band, but never got the credit they deserved.
