Is it normal to find grunge relaxing

When i listen to a grunge song i feel happy truly happy just the sound of yelling or something. Pearl jam nirvana alice in chains it relaxes me. The sheer sound of yelling. The guitar playing power chords the bass mimicking it with distortion blazing. Heavy dream beats the lyrics full of nihilism... Its like i feel really truly happy not like my life is fake. No its like the music is my life sloppy pointless stupid like everyone else's like everyone else's life i just feel like i don't give a fuck and the world is true. My leg twitches my heart beats the drum beats slowly getting faster the feel to it is amazing i dont know why i dont know why I DONT KNOW WHY. The screeching voice makes me happy daydream even to the sadest songs the deepest anger the songs about how people stuck on heroine makes me remember sneaking away to a bar when i was little and having the bartender give us free soda's and hot wings and talking to the people and running home as fast as we could at night. Though to the untrained ear this music sounds like crap!! it does sound like crap like awesome crap, but when i listen to happy songs i feel sad. Its like polar opposites. When i hear a song on the radio about love i get sick, but when its about going through rehab or dieing it makes me happy.

    I like listening to Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and the Foo Fighters before I go to sleep.

    I listen to nirvana all the time! It outs me in a mood where I don't give a fuck and I drown out the world. It works for me when I need to study and helps me to focus on doing well as opposed to how I am comparing to others. I'm a girl though so I don't exactly feel feminine when I listen to it. Do guys find it a turn off when girls liste to grunge music?

    Oh man I AGREE. Whenever I listen to Nirvana, its just like, I feel right in place. It doesn't make me feel tired or anything. Not even terribly happy. Just... content.
    Same with the Violent Femmes. But they aint grunge. That was just random.

    grunge is awesome nirvana were my favorite band since i was like 6! i get the same feeling as you only with house music (old skool house) it has such a liquid, dreamy sound can be very upbeat or reflective and i love the old skool synths and drums of late 80s, early 90s house, but yea i would say its normal if you like a song, you feel good listning to it no matter what its about, nirvanas songs are as fresh today as they always were :)

    Me too, some grunge music can really mellow me out. It seems like grunge is more veritile than most people think, because it can be really adreniline-fuelled or really relaxing. Not many music genres can do that.
