Scene Culture: music, fashion, or both?

This may be a niche topic that some won’t understand depending on your generation

My husband and I are having a discussion while watching old music videos tonight. Would you explain the scene culture as more of a fashion culture or music culture. If music which bands do you believe were inherently “scene” and why?

Additionally, it would be interesting to know which part of the US or world you grew up in and what years you associated with the peak of this culture
