That's why I liked their music and still do.

But Kurt Cobain could barely play a guitar, just like the guys in KISS.

I have no problems with either!!! like em both!

As overhyped/worshipped/rated as cobain is, he was talented. He was a good songwriter, and as for guitaring well i'm sick of this "lolz someone has to do 10 minute solos to be talented!" thats stupid, and extremely narrowminded to think that. Cobain wasn't a speed metal guitarist, he was a guitarist for nirvana and the guitaring he did fitted it well, another thing if it wasn't for simple stuff like nirvana alot of people wouldn't of learned to play guitar. Simple isn't bad, and Kurt Cobain did write some very pretty riffs.

and yet, when it comes to KISS, you discredit them for the exact same principles

This guy is even more obnoxious than Expletive Deleted when she decided that i didnt know a damn thing about music after she found out that i like Nirvana.

Please give me an example where I insulted them for not doing 10 minute solos, and yet again you don't contradict my arguement or back up your point on Cobain being a "hack"

Im pretty sure that he didn't use that to dismiss them. Show me the post. Or wait, did you read that he said that in a book?

KISS are not bad because they are simple, a lot of their music is just weak and or plain average.

I think he read it in my scholarly journal.
