Nirvana/Nevermind/15Y.O.

[yeahwho]

It's hard to believe it's been 15 years since Nevermind was released. I've heard a lot of varying opinions of this disc but I agree with all the accolades given to this album.

It is the accumlative effect and dispersal of the 1980's all in one great purge.

nice quote

over rated but still great. there were better new bands around at that time... soundgarden

i liked in utero and bleach better than nevermind, but it's still a good album. nirvana wrote some great fucking tunes, and they're the kinda band i'll still be listening to when i'm older.

You really couldn't ask for a better set of songs than the ones on "Nevermind."

That's not to say all their peers aren't worth checking out (Mudhoney, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Green River, Screaming Trees, Alice in Chains, etc.), but nobody did it quite like Nirvana did.

[yeahwho]

Nirvana where smarter than your average hair band. They understood the Replacemnets, Pixies, Sonic Youth and the 70's punk movement. Kurt could write a song like nobody's business and the album was titled perfect.

It is an amazing accomplishment. As I sit here today in rainy Seattle listening to Nevermind out of my computer speakers it reminds me of one of Kurt's secondhand store sweaters, comfortable yet ragged, torn and worn. These are great songs. They don't sound stale at all, there are many multi-platinum albums on the shelves, this one still sounds crisp, fresh and spectacular.

The only member of Nirvana who liked Nevermind more than In Utero is Dave Grohl. In Utero is a whole other topic....Serve the Servants is my all time favorite song about the music industry

Teenage angst has paid off well
Now I'm bored and old
Self-appointed judges judge
More than they have sold

I can't believe that I never saw them live, but if I had they probably would have sucked.

Kurt is overrated. Nirvana is just about right.

I love Dave Grohl even though he makes mediocre music. He's funny.

[Documad]

Oh, I missed the actual question. Nevermind changed the music we heard on TV and radio for a while.

[yeahwho]

I still have the unused ticket stubs to Nirvanas last live show that I snuck into.

Just because fuck nirvana and who am I to not do the wrong thing.

They were great live, plus a soldout Nirvana show was never packed. Why? They undersold the arenas for comfort and safety's sake. A true and little known Nirvana trivia.

well i dont think they suck, but i never really got into nirvana. i fit into the "i think theyre kinda overrated" category. for me it was just ok.

I know you already got shit for this b4, but you're fucking name is korn phr33k, so your opinion is shit and is totally discredited by that. Especially since you defended it by claiming it was 2 years old. Korn fucking sucked dick 6 years ago!

[zorra_chiflada]

lol korn. i remember them. in like, fucking, 1998. then they were on that show, "monk"

I'm dying to know your thoughts of Krist Novoselic. Don't forget him, I beg of you.

I liked nirvana's crazy punk rock songs......but they also had soft "pop" songs that really irritated me...(example listen to the unplugged cd)

Them being crazy
