Etsy Search Word: Grunge

Today, I'm inspired by the 1990's "Way Back Weekend" on the radio (yes, radio in my home that is not NPR right now--pledge drive time!) Grunge is the word of the day, and here are my favorite finds:
StephsDIY shop is filled with music-based art-attire. Here's one that harkens back to the days when the Seattle sound ruled the airwaves.
The dichotomy of "pretty" and "hardcore" is a bit jarring here, eh? I do (did) so love Alice in Chains. Check out SakuraMonkeyBoutique for more clashes of culture, many inspired by music.
"Three Crows" by GothicCrow is haunting. And it inhabits several art genres at once. I like the gothic-primitive shadowy dimensions. Check out her shop for art and photography.
Although there were 19 pages of items tagged or titled "grunge" I didn't think many fit the descriptor. I'm finding that the case with most of my search word experiements.
