12,898Is this the most hated genre on the Professor of Rock channel? I don’t know. You tell me. Whenever I release videos from this genre I never know what’s going to happen. Some episodes have blown up, getting phenomenal feedback. And others have been torn to shreds. I might be taking a risk with this one, but I’ve gotta confess that I love this genre. So today I’m giving you my top 5 songs that I hope will win you over to this genre. Including one that was created in a cramped closet for an imaginary album. Another that is the definition of schizophrenic. And one that the band refused to release as a single, but it got picked up by radio and became their most iconic track. five songs from the last great rock revolution of the rock era… and they’re coming your way NEXT on the Professor of Rock.

Today, we’re going to get into one of the most under-appreciated genres of the rock era. And maybe the last great rock revolution… It’s a genre that I think gets a lot of unnecessary hate. I’m going to count down my top 5 Greatest songs from grunge. And if you think you don’t like it, stick with me and I think you’ll change your mind by the end. These aren’t your typical picks. In fact, my top 3 songs have become favorites of friends who aren’t fans of the genre but I talked them into giving the songs a chance and now they swear by them so take a chance… Now GRunge didn’t just appear out of nowhere. It was the product of decades of musical evolution, blending punk’s rebellious energy, hard rock’s weighty riffs, and classic rock’s emotional depth into a genre designed for the outcasts.
Characterized by distorted guitars, raw production, and quiet-loud dynamics, grunge’s influences trace back to the songwriting of Neil Young (who is often called the “Godfather of Grunge”), the DIY ethos of punk bands like The Ramones and The Sex Pistols, and classic rock giants like Pink Floyd and Led Zeppelin. Give Zeppelin’s Ten Years Gone a closer listen and you’ll see what I mean.
Experimental 80s acts like The Pixies and Sonic Youth also shaped the genre’s unpolished textures and dynamics.
By the early 1980s, these influences began to coalesce in and around Seattle… a location that was musically isolated from most of the US. Pioneering bands like The U-Men, Green River, and Malfunkshun laid the groundwork for the Seattle genre, blending punk energy with heavy, sludgy riffs. The Melvins, Soundgarden, and Screaming Trees soon followed, further defining the scene. And then came the moment in the early 90s that everyone from my generation, Gen X, remembers… Nirvana and Nevermind. And that’s where I’m starting the countdown.
Okay, so coming in at #5, from their revolutionary album Nevermind, and I’m skipping over the obvious picks and going with Lithium. In 1989 Nirvana released their debut album Bleach on the independent label Sub Pop. The record captured the raw, unpolished energy of the band’s early grunge sound and featured standout tracks ‘About a Girl’ and the Shocking Blue cover ‘Love Buzz.’
