Grunge didn't kill metal, it just became more famous than the stock standard hair metal. But everyone decides now they'll interpret it in their own little way, "ooh such and such at the NME told me smashing pumpkins are better than extreme and mr big" or, "man I'm so glad nirvana killed warrant". Hair metal didn't suck- while it reached a point of over saturation so did grunge. Bands like def leppard could easily come up with stuff as intellectual as Alice in chains, just because they had a few songs like make love like a man or pour some sugar on me it becomes a thing of "oh grunge killed off unoriginal gay metal"
Metallica, Guns N Roses, Pantera, Queensrÿche etc all still had quite a lot of fame, and I think now that everyone's been conditioned to be grunge lovers it's all "love everything that isn't hair metal or dubstep Ew critics don't like that why should I"
Thoughts?
