Darth Drabek Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Not a bad introduction. They were great, great band that had a minor MTV hit or two but never hit big. [biased opinion]Too bad, because they were 500 times better than Pearl Jam or Nirvana. [/biased opinion] I'd always heard they enjoyed covering the Motown tunes, but I never realized they'd be . And hell, while we're at it, here's one of the funkiest songs in the Whigs' repetoire: Blame Etc. i reply that i don't believe i'm ever gonna die i don't do you? baby, take off your beret everyone's a critic and most people are DJs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baley Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Actually, Nirvana were one of the best early 90s mainstream rock|punk|whatever bands. Fishbone, RHCP and Faith No More, also good choices, but you gotta hand it to them, the mix of catchy tunes, wild energy and pure ole' fashion out-of-your-mind delirium-addiction, is virtually unmatched on teeny bopper Radio. Cobain was a soulful mofo*, maybe he couldn't play his guitar right, and maybe he wasn't much of a natural singer, but only wankers care about musicianship in punk rawk. You, like, don't mess with an Albini produced band, mang, you just don't, classic rule of Rock. *The Mods don't like the Baley using potty language. Substitute at will.

Blarghagh Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 (edited) Nirvana is only even remembered because Kurt shot himself in the head, man. If he hadn't, people would only remember them as the band that ripped of the Melvins and the Pixies so much. Besides, Kurt made a point to call anyone who came close to Nirvana's sales a sellout. That's how punk rawk he was. Too bad he never looked back on his own annoyingly catchy pop hooks. Nirvana was the Green Day or Good Charlotte of it's time.

Baley Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 My my, I thought they'd be remembered for, you know, making great music, but yeah, sure, whatever you say, mang, poppy-hooks are the devil. As for Cobain's off-stage antics, I'm not sure what this gotta do with the music, artists are a strange breed. Frankly, as long as he did his shtick and did it well, he could call my momma a whore and I wouldn't bulge an eyelid. Big Black - Tiny, King of the Jews.

Christopher Hitchens on Leon Trotsky, BBC Radio's Great Lives. I never said poppy hooks are evil. Eels are my favourite artists and they have poppy hooks all over the place. Hipocrisy is, though, and fact is that Nirvana's corporate rock aspirations were just as glaring as any other band from the so-called 'grunge' era. And Nirvana never had their own shtick, and they certainly didn't do it well. The Shins - The Weird Divide Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Baley Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Feisty today, eh? Bring on the hate, brother, thing is, Nirvana were an extremely exciting and most importantly fun band. They played catchy rock'n'roll better than anyone else in the mainstream world, and, hey, hypocrisy's great, keeps the world alive and breathing, keeps the monkeymen in their place, frankly, mate, I don't give a damn how horrible, monstrous, greedy an artist was as long as the art he produced sparkled like gold in front of my eyes.

Darth Drabek Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Sorry I missed the discussion guys, I needed some sleep. Anyway, "Corporate Rock Still Sucks," eh? My opinion on Nirvana varies weekly it seems, but I always think "About a Girl" was a damn fine Beatles song that Lennon/McCartney never wrote.

Baley Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 Yeah, I mean, I was watching this video on youtube, and they couldn't really play their instruments and Cobain couldn't really sing, but what made them great was all there, man, the energy, the liveliness, the there-ness. And Kurt will always be free of sins, in my book at least, for helping produce a Melvins album. Now imagine what would've happened if Cobain had aced his Melvins audition some 20 year ago.

Blarghagh Posted August 9, 2006 Share Posted August 9, 2006 I hate you, Baley. I can never tell if you're trying to be funny, serious or sarcastic. You confuse me. My opinion on Nirvana varies as well, actually. Usually, a listen to Unplugged makes me go "oh so pretty". Yet, then I listen to Nevermind and I'm like "oh god, turn that dingo off!"
