I think it's more about Capitalism. It took about 6 weeks for grunge to make it from a Seattle basement to a Paris catwalk, and that was three decades ago.

If it might make money, it'll get amplified.

Nirvana debuted in 1988 and it wasn't until 1991 that they hit it big and brought grunge to the larger music world outside of the region.

We were drowning in crappy corporate driven pop prior to that for years (with bright spots like techno, industrial, etc.)
