    Being mean toward Godsmack is fine, but I don't know if I'd consider them post-grunge.

    They do borrow heavily from AIC, but I think AIC being grunge is disputed even, and I tend to associate Godsmack with nu-metal bands more than anything, even though I know that's also not entirely accurate.

    I think of post-grunge as Bush, Candlebox, Collective Soul, Silverchair, Creed, 3 Doors Down, Nickelback, Seether, Shinedown, and on.

    The first thing under genre on Godsmack's wiki page is Post-Grunge

    And it can be disputed. I didn't know we were treating Wikipedia as a definitive resource.

    Neither of those are post-grunge, that's just silly.

    Anyway, genre, like a lot of things, is open to interpretation.

    that’s a band that has gotten much better as their discography has rolled on.

    their pure noise debut was straight gas.

    oh… question, does anyone know why some of the pure noise releases on apple music say epitaph records? but new releases are still pure noise?

    all of the recent grunge bands sound like bush

    Which ones? I'm not sure I've heard any that remind me of even older Bush.

    i didn’t specify older bush

    but that narrow head album definitely reminds me of them vs. pearl jam/nirvana/aic etc.

    superbloom is another. violent soho. dinosaur pile up. there’s a lot. most of the bands labeled as a grunge revival or whatever sound more like a post-grunge revival than any of the more classic bands

    I guess I don't hear it because I don't find any of these bands to be nearly as accessible, and I think that’s a big part of what post-grunge is.
