Why is Nirvana overrated to you? If Kurt Cobain had not passed away so young, do you think they would still be considered icons?

Nirvana was big before Cobain died and there sound was refreshing and different than what was big the previous 6 years. Hair metal was already going stale. Nirvana came along at the right time.
I think Nirvana was overrated on a personal note. There were to many horrible songs in their catalog and most people jumped on the bandwagon. AMG originally gave Bleach one star but after Nirvana got big Bleach was all of a sudden a five star album.
