Grunge Is Dead: The Oral History of Seattle Rock Music Review: Everyone who likes Seattle music, must have it - I think that it is the best "grunge"-related book that you could find. No invention, no guesswork, - only the words of people who really know what they talk about. Absolutely authentic - you just feel it. It took me one night to read it to the end - I couldn't help to stop and to go to bed :) I love the fact that there is a lot of information not only about "the big four" (Alice In Chains, Nirvana, PJ, Soundgarden), but also about less, as to say, "commercially successfull" bands, and also about the bands which gave inspiration to so called "grunge". There are a lot of music, and there are personal stories of people you are interested in, too. Sad ones and absolutely hilarious ones. I want to mention that people who like Layne Staley, should read this book - you will find the story of one of the best rock singers ever, respectfully and frankly told and collected. Buy it, you won't regret. Review: learned lots - Not only does Greg Prato give you the late 80s and 90s era of Seattle, he goes waaaayyyyy back to the roots of it all in the 50s and 60s. I was totally amazed at how much content he was able to squeeze from prior periods and recent events as well. The only thing you have to adjust to is this is a series of quotes and answers from the people that lived it without a lot of narrative from Greg to guide you. Its not the author telling you what happened its the actually artists and people involved...in short quotes or answers. Its hard to get use to at first but then you get used to it and can get through the book quickly and understand why Greg did it this way. I really enjoyed this book and pretty much anything Greg Prato writes. He did an outstanding book on Blind Melon you should read as well. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #852,911 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #264 in Punk Music (Books) #283 in Heavy Metal Music (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (368) | | Dimensions | 6.75 x 1 x 9.75 inches | | ISBN-10 | 1550228773 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1550228779 | | Item Weight | 1.75 pounds | | Language | English | | Print length | 488 pages | | Publication date | April 1, 2009 | | Publisher | ECW Press | ## Images ![Grunge Is Dead: The Oral History of Seattle Rock Music - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71N9gp7dCFL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Everyone who likes Seattle music, must have it *by V***A on October 11, 2009* I think that it is the best "grunge"-related book that you could find. No invention, no guesswork, - only the words of people who really know what they talk about. Absolutely authentic - you just feel it. It took me one night to read it to the end - I couldn't help to stop and to go to bed :) I love the fact that there is a lot of information not only about "the big four" (Alice In Chains, Nirvana, PJ, Soundgarden), but also about less, as to say, "commercially successfull" bands, and also about the bands which gave inspiration to so called "grunge".

Buy it, you won't regret. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ learned lots *by E***E on December 19, 2012* Not only does Greg Prato give you the late 80s and 90s era of Seattle, he goes waaaayyyyy back to the roots of it all in the 50s and 60s. I was totally amazed at how much content he was able to squeeze from prior periods and recent events as well.

I really enjoyed this book and pretty much anything Greg Prato writes. He did an outstanding book on Blind Melon you should read as well. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ perhaps the definitive history of those years *by B***W on July 14, 2013* It's a great read if you're really interested in this topic. The only cons were: I got tired of flipping to the back of the book to lookup who a person was (this info could have been part of the quotes themselves). Also, large swaths of important folks from that era weren't interviewed, yet we get interviews w/ seemingly inconsequential folks labelled as "concert goer". I would have liked to see the Love Battery folks interviewed, ditto for Seaweed, the New Rage records fellas, etc. ## Frequently Bought Together - Grunge Is Dead: The Oral History of Seattle Rock Music - Alice in Chains: The Untold Story - Sing Backwards and Weep --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vn/products/6444300-grunge-is-dead-the-oral-history-of-seattle-rock-music](https://www.desertcart.vn/products/6444300-grunge-is-dead-the-oral-history-of-seattle-rock-music) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vietnam* *Store origin: VN* *Last updated: 2026-05-12*
