Nirvana is not as good as everyone thinks.

Nirvana 2.0

When one believes he/she has forgotten the day of the week and the date. Usually they take up to 3 hours to wake up fully. Usually accociated to those who are directionless, but still content with life. Most likely to resemble "The Dude".

Christian: Dude, what time is it?

John: 3:30pm. did you just wake up?

Christian: yeah... what day is it?

John: are you high or something?

Christian: Naa bro, Nirvana 2.0

dirty nirvana

A teenager with long greasy hair that plays acoustic guitar all day. They usually wear Iron Maiden shirts and love bands like Metallica. They can be seen in places like Sam Ash playing guitars because they don't have enough money to buy them.

Dirty Nirvanas are usually walking down streets alone with an acoustic guitar on their back.

Nirvana

Nirvana is the greatest fucking band of all time ! You CANNOT compare them to Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, or Metallica. If you do, you clearly are RETARDED. It is a completely different kind of music, grunge. It mostly expresses teen angst. Kurt Cobain (R.I.P) supposedly commited suicide, sadly, but I personally believe he was murdered by his fucking wife (Courtney Love). Just read the last for lines of his suicide note ! WTF !?!? The handwriting changes and so doesn't the mood of the letter !!

Although Nirvana's message was that they didn't want to be used just to make money. If you've barely heard any songs by them, get your ass to the store and buy the album simply titled Nirvana. It'll give you a taste of their music and if you like it, go and buy their fucking awesome albums.

person 1: "I hate Kurt Cobain!"

me: "Fuck you, you probably don't even know what happened to him. Go rot in hell. You probably listen to fucking gay Paul Wall and that gay rap shit*. Nirvana rocks !! "

*Not all rap is shit.

nirvana

One of the Best Bands of all time. They delayed the domination of rap and pop for a few years and allowed rock to regain it's title.

'If you are either a racist, sexist, or in any other way an asshole, don't buy our albums. I don't want your money. Don't love me because I hate you."

nirvana

A criminally overrated band fronted by Kurt Cobain. Though some good came of the band and the associated grunge scene (the destruction of Poison and Ratt), the negative effects were far more pronounced. Real metal was dealt a crippling blow as well, and depressing heroin rock was able to dominate thereafter. Though grunge died in 1995 with Cobain, the effects of Nirvana's "whiney generation" revolution are still being felt today. Nu-metal and mallcore filled in the vacuum left by heavy metal, mimicing the simple chord progressions and detuned guitars that were present in the grunge movement. Post-grunge rock, which has blossomed into many lackluster subgenres, still bears the simplicity and downcast attitude, as well as the whiney vox of the grunge movement.

"My generation is dwarfed by the baby boomers, what a bummer," -Cobain
