It developed as a genre consisting mainly of vocals, guitar, bass, and drums that could vary in sound from upbeat to emotional. Many iconic alternative rock bands like Nirvana, The Smiths, and R.E.M. achieved mainstream success in the 1980s-90s, though the genre's popularity declined somewhat in the late 90s.

The document analyzes camerawork, editing, sound, and mise-en-scene conventions in the music video "Always Where I Need to Be" by The Kooks. There are many close-ups of band members playing instruments. Shots are edited quickly to match the upbeat tempo.
