What if Subpop Never Coined the Term GRUNGE?

i heard on Soundcheck an interview of Thurston Moore about how bands and people who belonged to the grunge era didn't really call themselves as grunge until an employee of Subpop Records (seattle's leading record label who's responsible for grunge explosion).

So i kinda wonder if Subpop didn't coined the term grunge to describe their label's music, then will people still call it punk rock even though some grunge bands somehow managed to combine punk and heavy metal?

its Mark Arm who blurt the term Grunge, or as the story goes. that employee from Sub-Pop just heard of him joking about how Green River sound dirty like a garbage, like grunge. She then used the term grunge on her Columns as part of promoting Sub-Pop aswell.

theres Actually a film focusing on the Grunge Era & supposedly Lifestyle, its called "HYPE"...

PUNK.... lol. Layo-a sab uy. I'd say Southern Rock or Hard Rock. They refer Neil Young as the Godfather of Grunge.. and Neil Young's sound isn't really punk.

IMO ang grunge kay mas doul sa mga proto-punk sa 60s like stooges and MC5.... murag MC5 meets black sabbath... hehehe
