Talk:List of post-grunge bands

The Contagious

There Is A New Post Grunge Band Out and They Go By The Contagious. I Request That They Be Put In Post grunge article.

Wikipedia is not a venue for advertising new and heretofore non-notable entities. When they are famous someone who is not connected to the band will be welcome to start the article. 99.178.163.130 (talk) 21:08, 10 June 2009 (UTC)

the letter G

yeah someone deleted all the bands under G, the only one i can remember is Gyroscope so someone will have to add then back on if you can remember them

Evanescence and Drowning Pool

I found it hard to believe that these two bands were really classified as post-grunge, and there weren't any sources saying that they were post-grunge, so I removed the two. If anyone can actually provide reliable sources saying they're post-grunge, I'll accept their so-called status as post-grunge bands. --LordNecronus (talk) 23:38, 10 October 2009 (UTC)

Wheres the foo fighters and stone temple pilots? 203.184.4.165 (talk) 12:15, 30 October 2009 (UTC)

This list needs refining

The term post-grunge I would assume means it sounds like grunge to a degree. bands like Vertical Horizons don't fit the label. Infact most don't. Like noted above, STP is missing. This list needs to be redone. Devilmanozzy (talk) 18:52, 5 February 2010 (UTC)

I have removed Stone Temple Pilots from the list. They are generally considered grunge, not post-grunge, as is reflected in the Grunge article. (Dxmusick (talk) 17:42, 15 January 2011 (UTC))

wtf?

could you please take candlebox out. and maybe bush. bush and candlebox were around before post-grunge even was coined or invented. And there most successful albums were released in 93, 94, which is not mid 90's. thats early 90's please remove. actually i'll do it myself. --69.254.131.224 (talk) 11:14, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

Jonas Brothers

They are post-grunge, why do you keep on removing them? —Preceding unsigned comment added by User2010II (talk • contribs) 04:01, 27 February 2010 (UTC)

Because you're 100% incorrect. They have nothing to do with grunge or alternative (not even bad grunge and alternative). 74.69.64.52 (talk) 20:46, 22 April 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Paraxkill (talk • contribs)

Jonas Brothers post-grunge? Is that like saying Justin Bieber is alternative? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 211.30.218.121 (talk) 11:16, 2 August 2011 (UTC)

Stone Temple Pilots

Their article doesn't say their post grunge ans neither does any of their album articles. Plus they were part of the actual grunge scene and honestly don't sound like post-grunge. They're also found on the actual grunge band list. There's also no citation even considering them as post-grunge. I've removing them from the list. --Mrmoustache14 (talk) 21:05, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

OMG

This is the bullshit list. 04:34, 30 March 2013 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 188.134.46.35 (talk)

STP

Consistency with band pages

There are (were) multiple bands on this list which are not identified as post-grunge at all on the band's Wikipedia page. There are no reliable sources, either here or on the band's main page, identifying them as post-grunge. The list includes:

• A Perfect Circle
• Alien Ant Farm
• Anberlin
• Avril Lavigne
• Courtney Love
• Filter
• The Refreshments (U.S. band)
• Toadies
• The Vines
• Veruca Salt
• Violent Soho

The top of the article page says that it is for bands whose primary genre is post-grunge, and none of these bands fit that bill. I have removed them, and will continue to remove them if anyone re-adds them. Shelbystripes (talk) 17:54, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

Updated list to add Courtney Love (and remove her from article page). Whoever added her to the article must have done it as a joke. Shelbystripes (talk) 18:06, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

Updated again, The Refreshments don't belong here either. They're described as alternative/pop-rock, but not post-grunge. Shelbystripes (talk) 18:25, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

Updated again, removed Avril Lavigne, Filter, Veruca Salt. Searched for any reliable sources that support them as "primarily" post-grunge, and I could not. The Avril Lavigne page describes only her early work as "influenced by" post-grunge. Given that the purpose of this page is artists or bands whose primary genre is post-grunge, she clearly does not belong on this list either. Shelbystripes (talk) 19:07, 23 July 2016 (UTC)

Primary Genre

The list claims that only bands whose primary genre is post-grunge should be included, but there is MANY bands included whose primary genre is NOT post-grunge. Ganondox (talk) 20:35, 1 August 2018 (UTC)
