discuss..
(however, keep in mind that i am a diehard nirvana fan.. what you say may result in an endless flame message..)

I've been planning on getting more into Nirvana... I'm just too lazy at the moment. :P

On days where nothing is happening I listen to every single song ever written by a specific band or artist that I'm planning on getting into... after about half a year of only being familiar with only one or two songs by them.

Nirvana was a pretty decent band, and I'm glad they got as famous as they did. I'm not a huge fan, but I will gladly listen to anything they put out. Bleach was a great debut album.

Though I must say, they verge on being horribly overrated. They're a lovechild of Pixies, Melvins, The Raincoats, and Mudhoney. Yeah, they merged those sounds into something people really wanted to hear at the time, but Cobain was never an innovator.

Still, can't blame the guy. Every good band is influenced by their predecessors.

Well... they're mostly deified because he died at a young age. If he were still alive they wouldn't be worshiped but just mutually respected.

WHY CURT, WHY!?!?!?!?!?! I love Nirvana. Curt made me sad. Emo time.

Dude... I regret listening to Courtney Love recite her speech at his funeral on youtube. Today of all days. Why... WHY did I do that?

Turkey Day eve should be a happy thing... :P But that rested an underlying depression in me all day today.

Maybe I won't get into Nirvana. Doing so will mean that you'd have to live with being just a little bit depressed for the rest of your life.

They're not bad, but I'm not a fan.

are you kidding me?
there name says it all..
"Nirvana"


when i listen to their tracks (particularly jesus dont want me for a sunbeam , dumb, polly, on a plain)
i just wanna lie down and stare at the roof.


you're not depressed. just calmed... theres a big difference.

Mmm... I'd say depressed. I might get familiar with their works and all that, but I'll definitely not becoming a 'fan'. It's not going to happen.

(in my signature... that's the advice Kurt could have taken before blowing his brains out... even though there are.. "theories" that it was a "set up"... yeah... okay >_> srsly, there are people who claim Courtney hired people to kill him and then plant the note in the room where he died... yeah... that's believable)

so are you saying you dont like kurt cobain because he killed himself...

cuz that would be really stupid...

there are more fucked up people in this world...
like hitler..

Oh yeah, you got me... >_>

I never liked Nirvana much. Not my type.

...

Dave Grohl and the Foo Fighters are better. I like Nirvana, but the Foo Fighters are more creative and diverse. Their newest album is awesome.

Dave Grohl is great, but the Foo Fighters don't even occupy the same level of awomesomness.

i think dave grohl secretley wanted to be an actor but was told from an early age he wasnt good enough... every music video, he plays a lead role in an overly complex storyline that sounds more like a movi than a music video.

foo fighters arent even worth comparing to nirvana.
they dont even appear on the same radar.
it would be like comparing the height of a tall tree to the hight of a midd sized skyscraper...
nirvaa has stood the test of time. 10 years after kurt cobains death they are still alive and strong. but you only hear about the foo fighters every time they release a new album...

ive held back as much as i can.

Dude... it's just music. Hold your horses. People have different tastes. Get over it.

In musical proficiency and originality, Nirvana kills Foo Fighters.

Here's how I feel about Dave Grohl. Dave Grohl was a great drummer and should have REMAINED a drummer.

NOT become an actor

please refer to my opening post on this matter...
diehaard nirvana fan.
eccentric music listener.
not afraid to shout.

I'm aware of this... it was just a vain attempt to help change your attitude regarding personal amusement. :P

well there are few things in this world i feel strongly about..
two in fact. and one of those is music.

I suppose I understand that feeling.

No. I don't think you do.

not the way i do...

I'm talking about in general. Not Nirvana.

feeling strongly about something feels different depending on what you feel about...

Yeah... I know.

You know what? How about we just talk about the music already. Not much constructive seems to be coming out of this thread at all.

fine.
listening to them is like falling from a burning plane in slow motion.
