Nobody is ahead of anybody's time... everyone else is just behind (I think Varese said something like that).

I could never get super into either of them, I think I just missed it somehow.

Listened to a lot of each for the past few days. Going to stick with Pixies. Just better.

Pixies. Nirvana has some great songs, but Pixies are the better overall band.

I wouldn't have expected a different answer from a user with the name Black Francis But yes, I would have to agree. I like Nirvana a lot, but I believe their appeal was boosted a great deal by timing... the music world needed a boost in the keister about the time they came on the scene... and Pearl Jam wasn't enough of a boost.
