Did Grunge really kill hair metal?

And anything pop tends abuse the new trend until people get sick of it or are ready for something different.


Although what do you guys think about Imagine Dragons being a modern day hairband/balled-type?  I'm sure others fit the mold as well, but that's the one that screams to me being an old formula repackaged.

I'm not sure about Imagine Dragons.

That folk rock crap fizzled out pretty quick though.

Mumford & Sons and all of the other bands of the kind of flashed big for a second and then seemed to slide back into obscurity.
