Though, now that I'm talking about it, I have to admit I kind of feel like listening to them. Maybe I will.

You've hit the nail right on the head there. If Nirvana had been about as popular as say the Melvins, they would've attained cult status and people would be constantly singing their praises on this forum as a band to check out. For a lot of people, being too popular seems to dilute a band's quality unfortunately.

I mean I know Ghost Jam loves nirvana. Obviously yes I like Franco and Pepe Kalle but my name makes that obvious. You should know that I like those two since that is my name here. DUH. But I understand that not everyone is going to like Franco and Pepe Kalle. I respect that. But Ghost Jam is mad that not everyone like Nirvana. That is all what I am stating. Ghost Jam knows that he is being a *******.

I remember my brother telling me how he found a favorite band. After I heard them I was like nevermind. I guess part of my problem of not hailing Nirvana as the greatest band ever is that I heard a lot of music before hearing them. Not that I am an expert in any way.

I'd also heard a lot of music before hearing them, I just think their execution of the sound that they had put together fairly mind-blowing for its time, despite the fact that a lot of their base sound had been already done by the Pixies.
