nirvana

Nirvana were a band that played alternative or "grunge" music in the early 1990s. An alright band, but highly overrated.

There's nothing that Nirvana did that bands like Sonic Youth and Pixies didn't do before them.

The greatest, most talented band, to ever strum a guitar or write a lyric.

All must bow before the might that is Nirvana.

Nirvana

One of the most overrated rock bands ever. PERIOD... How is it that sub-par 4-chord guitar playing and screamed vocals could be taken for anything else?
A phenomenon spun out of a single novelty song that filled a void in a lame musical landscape.

- "Shame about Kurt and Nirvana eh Doctor Lecter?"
- "Best thing for him really, his therapy was going nowhere"

Now-defunct three-piece band formed sometime in the Eighties. Famous hits include 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' and 'Come As You Are'.

Greatest band ever. Don't listen to the dumbasses who say they're overrated, they're the kind of people who judge a band by one song, which would be Smells Like Teen Spirit. Also, definitely one of the most influental bands ever.

Listening to Nirvana is much better than even going near rap or cock rock, such as Good Charlotte.

Nirvana

The most overrated band ever, a band that has only come up with only 1 or 2 decent songs.

Guy 1: NIRVANA FUCKING RULES, BEST FUCKING BAND EVER!!!

Guy 2: (Takes a look at Guy 1's iPod) Then how come you only have 1 Nirvana song? (Smells Like Teen Spirit)

Guy 1: Um... because... uh... I like it a lot!

Guy 2: Yeah right, I'll listen to some AC/DC, you know, some REAL music!

Nirvana

The best rock band ever. Their music inspired and influenced millions of young people. Kurt Cobain as guitar/vocals, Krist Novoselic as bass, and Dave Grohl as drums. Their music will always inspire us.

Our little group has always been, and always will until the end-smells like teen spirit.

Which is so true.

RIP Kurt Cobain. You live on in all of us.
