Alternative rock music is really a name given to rock music that didn't fit any other genre.
However, the technical meaning is usually any rock music that descended from punk rock. A
lot of rock music has been classified as alternative rock music even though some of these did
not exactly fit the meaning.
Generally, the alternative rock image is very grungy and laidback. They tend not to make an
effort with their look in the way that classical artists wear gowns and suits. They all have
their own unique look and come across fairly casual.
