Alternative Rock Mug
An umbrella term used to describe a style of music that emerged in the late 80's and early 90's. Alternative Rock is usually characterized by bands who have a "do-it-yourself" or non-conformist attitude; hence "alternative". It originated with the jangle pop guitar sounds of R.E.M. and the loud/soft dynamic of the Pixies and gained popularity when Nirvana brought it into the mainstream with their album Nevermind. Ironically, it became probably the most popular music of the time period, which was a paradox of sorts in itself -- although purposely anti-mainstream and "against the norm", it became commonplace for people to conform to non-conformity. Today, the term is often thrown around by people who don't really understand what it means and think that it can be applied to any band of their choosing. This is not true -- for a band to be truly Alternative, they have to follow the Alternative mindset; that is, they must either perform in a style of Alternative Rock already established (see Grunge or Britpop) or be avant-garde and completely throw what it considered usual or average out the window. The name is often wrongly associated with "Modern Rock". This is wrong because whereas Alternative Rock is a genre and follows a specific style, Modern Rock is a radio format and simply refers recent bands. Note: discrepancies with categorizing bands as "Alternative Rock" come from the fact that most Alternative bands fit easily into an Alternative Rock subgenre (Nirvana - Grunge, Modest Mouse - Indie) and can be classified as either the subgenre or "Alternative Rock" in general; if a band covers more than one style instead of sticking to one in particular, they are usually just called "Alternative Rock".

This mug is perfect! High quality product
My Aiden mug is awesome
This item was ordered as a gift, so you can imagine how happy I was to see it arrive in a box. Not only was it true to order in color and wording but was also without holes and held a strong cup of tea. However, I would not recommend green tea for this mug, or any mug for that matter as I prefer black teas. Emiyah will love it once she decides to return from France bringing her awesome hair and her kind heart and maybe some macaroons. I will put it to use until then and think of her fondly.

I want to buy all the random word mugs in the world from you all 🙏🏻
Perfect way to start my day!
Ok it’s a mug drink from it act edgy with it who cares
This was a gift for my wife. She loves it.
The custom word and design came out perfectly, and my girlfriend absolutely adored the mug; I'll absolutely consider more custom-printed cups for birthdays and other occasions in the future.
Purchased this custom mug for my teenager, and they love it! The first comment was that the coffee stayed hot longer. Solid mug and the custom text isn't wearing ff after so many uses. Will definitely buy again.
The mug looks great and hasn't faded after multiple runs through the dishwasher. It microwaves well, and the text is sufficiently unruly.
I had been looking for the translation from a Tik Tok video and found it on Urban Dictionary. I was surprised to find a coffee mug available so I ordered one. My order was processed very quickly. My mug arrived promptly and in perfect condition. Many Thanks
This mug was a Father’s Day gift for my dad, and let me tell you, it is the greatest mug ever produced by humankind. Not only does it have a simple, minimalist design on it with my father’s name, but also the witty definition on the back that perfectly describes him. While he only uses the mug to hold his pens, I’m sure it would act perfectly fine with any sort of beverage in it as well. Urban Dictionary, let my just tell you that you have sent me the finest piece of art I could have possibly asked to hand over to my dad. Thank you, and I’m sure I’ll be purchasing another one of these fine crafted mugs some time soon. To whoever is reading this, have a nice day, and enjoy your summer.
I bought this for my daughter and she absolutely loves it!
exactly what wanted, holds hot coffee excellent, am 'Hutty'!! that's funny
Used it for a family inside joke, very funny
Great mug! Customizing was great!
why i want this mug i want this mug because I LOVE JUDE :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :) :)
Great as a little joke gift! But a little on the pricey side for a coffee mug. If I didn’t love the person as much as I do, I would probably never spend that amount on a normal coffee cup.
It is perfect. I purchased the mug aa a gift and the recipient loved it!
