Answer 1

Wow. Some of those are ACTUALLY good, like Foo Fighters, Weezer, and Nirvana. Alternative Rock, Definitely.

Answer 2

Foo Fighters - Rock :)

Linkin Park - Alternative

Incubus - Alternative Rock :)

Godsmack - Rock

Sublime - Alternative/Reggae/Ska/Punk :)

Finger Eleven - Rock

Nickelback - Pop-Rock

Seether - Alternative Rock

Alien Ant Farm - Alternative/Pop

NIN - Industrial/Rock/Alternative :)

Nirvana - Grunge :)

hoobastank - Alternative/Pop

Puddle of Mudd - Rock/Post-Grunge

Oasis - Alternative

Trapt - Rock

Weezer - Alternative/Rock :)

Soundgarden - Grunge

POD - Christian Rock/Alternative



At least, that's how I would label them. I would add crap on most of them but it is not my place to tell you what to like! :)

BTW, It would have been easier to just put the band names on instead of the names and songs by each. You should also listen to Alice In Chains, Godsmack got their name from one of their songs, and in my opinion AIC is much better.

Answer 3

Well, most is Alternative rock or Hard rock, but Nine inch nails classify themselves as Industrial most of the time.

Answer 4

Not ALL of it.... And Learn to spell names right. Its LINKIN PARK, and ALIEN ANT FARM, Godsmack and Nickelback is one word. Lets see Foo Fighters is Alt. Rock, Linkin Park is now Punk Rock, Incubus is Alt. Rock, NIN and Godsmack is Hard Rock, Seether is just rock. Alien Ant Farm is well lame. If you just google each band you will find the Genres pretty quick... But ALL the bands you listed are NOT Alt rock. Only a few.

Answer 5

Alternative rock, ska, grunge, industrial, pop-rock, nu-metal. There's a whole bunch of different genres in this list. Most of them could be alternative rock though.

Answer 6

The most common term used these days to describe the majority of these bands is "post-grunge".



Typical hallmarks of post-grunge are American hard rock songs that don't have the scooped distortion and funkier beats that nu-metal used.

Answer 7

I guess that you could put that all in alternative if you had to put them in one genre. But Sublime is more punk, Nirvana is more grunge then anything, and I'm not sure about other ones, I guess that you could just leave it at alternative instead of going into more detail.

Answer 8

Linkin Park are like rap rock

Godsmack and Seether aren't really alternative

Nine Inch Nails are industrial rock.



Genre's shouldn't be a concern when it comes to music. Just listen and enjoy.

Don't be offended or mad is someone says different.

Answer 9

Linkin Park- Crap "Rock"

Nickelback- Crap "Rock"

Seether- Post-Grunge

Incubus-Alternative

Nirvana- Grunge

Nine Inch Nails-Alternative/Industrial



All falls under mainstream.

Answer 10

For such a relatively broad range of music "alternative rock" is a quite suitable genre, yes.

Answer 11

foo fighters, nirvana, and alien ant farm is more punk

sublime is an alternative reggae/ska

god smack, 9 inch nails, seether is metal

linkin park and nickel back is well just gay

Answer 12

I agree with you for all of them. I's also call Nirvana grunge and NIN industrial.



And yes, Linkin Park is alternative rock, and nothing more. It's unbelievable how many people think Linkin Park is metal.

Answer 13

not all of those are alternative, I see a few which would be considered more of flat out rock, such as animals by nickelback and all that nirvana stuff.
