Alternative Rock emerged in the 80's and has only been fully accepted as a music genre in recent years. Alternative music is a recent genre type and can be generalised to apply to many different types of music, however Alternative rock narrows this genre down to only apply to rock music.
R.E.M and The Cure are examples of Alternative rock music that have been hugely successful, however it is a popular view that alternative rock music struggles to be successful due to its limited audience.
Alternative rock symbolises underground music that can be applied to punk rock and emo styles.
