It is true that Nirvana are to this day very overrated. One good album and another few decent songs here and there is not enough to earn the praise they recieve.

1 - Kurts death was always going to give the band a ridiculous and undeserved amount of hype (like the Doors).
2 - The late 80s early 90s were the dark ages of musical history. If any decent band's only competition was from Phil Collins, Vanilla Ice, New Kids on the Block and poodle rockers then of course they will stand out.
