School Live at Leeds/Reading was fantastic!

One of my favourites has always been In Bloom

To me Nirvana was different to all the rest of grunge bands like PJ or AIC. They had this kind of strange energy going on. There was something psychotic about them. About their sound as well. I only like a couple of tunes, but overall "mood" of the band was great.

"Lithium" is probably my fave song by them

cos i feel like that almost all the time

I listened to Nevermind for the first time in forever a couple weeks ago on a long road trip. Was good to give it a spin again and actually makes great cruising music. Breed is still one of my favourite Nirvana songs.

Says he doesn't like depressing music, proceeds to say he likes Alice In Chains...WTF.

Maybe his opinions have changed in the eight and a half years since he made those comments.

The constant Cobain references by various Hip Hop artists annoys me.

Favorite Nirvana song has to be Paper Cuts, I liked Bleach a lot more than the "grunge" stuff, even though grunge really isn't so much a genre, seeing as though Alice In Chains and Soundgarden were alternative metal bands that somehow get labeled as grunge, and Pearl Jam was just some lame poppy rock stuff.

I like all of their stuff, Nevermind was my least favorite, but every time I listen to it I always think "wow, this is one of the best pop albums of all time". It's so well made, the production, lyricism, everything's there. I like the rawness and aggression of Bleach and other albums though a little bit more. In fact, Bleach is just a hardcore album, there's not really anything "alt rock" about it.
