Grunge started as the de facto web design for skateboard punks and garage bands. Gritty or dirty backgrounds, subdued colors, rough textures, torn edges and graffiti-like text define the grunge look.
Like every web trend, grunge has its place. When used for the right website, it evokes a raw, edgy, urban feeling. When used for "Grandma's Homemade Cookies" there is a definite disconnect.
