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.

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.

A band, that is talented, not by guitar but by lyrics that dominated rap and hip hop for a few years.
"polly" and "smells like teen spirit"
were some of there great lyrics. This is a truely great band, because after the 90s, they came out with bands like dashboard confessionals, simple plan, and blink 182, who are horrible at playing, and vocaling. Sorry, but screaming "vindicated" at a gay tone isnt a song.

I wouldnt say nirvana was the best rock band in the world, but they were the ones who made me get into bands like "van halen",ledzeppelin,metallica and the great 70s to 80s rock. Lynyrd skynyrd also. There Song "smells like teen spirit" is famed for its solo, that got them into "100 best solos of all time". its 30 something.

A Seriously Crap Band That Did Not Influence Anything And Just Sang About Anything. None Of Them Can Play Their Instruments And My Cat Can Write Better Songs Than That And Then My Dog Would Lay Down The Instruments 300 Times Better.

Me: Dude, Have You Still Got That Nirvana CD?

Bill: No I Put Mine In The Microwave. And you?

Me: Mines A Really Shit Frisbee.
