Grunger is a common slang term given to anybody related to the alternate scene. It originated around the late 80s to mid 90s grunge scene. Started by bands like Alice in chans, The Melvins and Nirvana. The word grunge was first used by a critic trying to describe the rawness of the sound these bands created. It somehow stuck, and over the years was transformed into the steriotype of grunger.
