WHAT *ACTUALLY* KILLED GRUNGE? (It wasn’t Courtney Love)

What killed grunge? It wasn't just the death of Kurt Cobain IMO:
* The rise of grunge with Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit," Alice In Chain, Soundgarden and Pearl Jam
* The star power of Kurt Cobain, Eddie Vedder, Chris Cornell, Layne Staley, Courtney Love and more
* How grunge bands helped shine a light on punk, hardcore and indie bands like SSD, Poison Idea and Bikini Kill and riot grrrl
* How grunge killed hair metal overnight
