    oh, they count! While many credit bands like REM for bringing college rock / alternative to the mainstream, it ushered in an era of authenticity that Nirvana pretty much personified with their explosive success.

    Alternative (or indie or college rock) just really means music not designed for top 40 mainstream accolades - yes, they may hit top 40, but that’s not really what the music is about. The music isn’t making music to follow top 40 trends, they tend to follow their own thing.
