The Official Nirvana/Kurt Cobain Thread (single, albums, pearl jam, Courtney Love)

Yeah. There's only two major bands who I'm friends with... and they're Bowling for Soup and Army of Freshmen...

It's strange how I'm friends with huge pop rock bands... and I hate pop music!

But I digress, have you heard of or listened to the Pixies to have ignored Frank?

Grunge_Junkie · 09-11-2008, 06:32 PM

yeah i listen to them sometimes..i just dont remember names lol.

Cobe Kai · 09-11-2008, 06:55 PM

Haha. Well I would say put The Melvins on your 'Top 5', but I asked Buzz last night, and he says that they're "well we're heavy metal and sludge, except for the quiet stuff".

So, you got off there.

Sorry for late reply. It's nearly 2am... I should be asleep... school in morning... Second year of 6th form... It doesn't get easier.

Cool. So what bands you into?

Nirvana is a band that made not only a career but an entire movement out of being mediocre. They overplayed their counterculture status and instead became representative of a generation of lost souls. They were vastly overshadowed in technical, musical, and songwriting ability by bands like Blind Melon and survived only because Kurt decided to bite the bullet instead of life.

All you people who venerate Kurt, ask yourselves: would he had as great an impact upon modern music if he didn't blow his head off?

FactoryGirl · 09-11-2008, 10:02 PM

I still love his music.. sometimes theres nothing better then a good Nirvana track to get you thru the day..

By the time of Kurt's death, he was already worth multi-millions and was a huge name musically and globally. His death didn't make him big, he was already big.
