[J.S.N.]

i vote for AIC

[J.S.N.]

extra grunge points for staley being obviously strung out on teh opiates.

[Schmidty]

I hate Nirvana. Its all about Alice In Chains.

[Schmidty]

Whenever I tell people that I hate Nirvana I always get some stupid answere like, If you dont like Nirvana you dont like real grunge or They changed the music industry. No they didnt. I think it was NIN and Chili Peppers.

[Schmidty]

I just thank God the hair bands died.

red hot chilli peppers are a bunch of sellout cheesy twats. released 1 good album and a few good songs. they havent done anything important.
nirvana completely changed the music industry. and are the greatest band ever.
nine inch nails had a smaller effect on the music industry than rhcp.

[donniebrasco]

what. like iron maiden, metallica, megadeth, slayer, guns n roses etc.

[amender]

slayer

[JAYROD]

[Schmidty]

No no no no, I mean Like Poison and Damn Yankeys, and Montely Crew. You gave the worst examples of hair bands ever

How did the chilli peppers sell out, You a sheep. BAH BAH BAH. Go listen to teen spirit. BTW If the Chilli peppers helped out Smashing Pumpkins and Nirvana alot by taking them on tour. Go follow your leader and do what ever MTV tells you to do

What are you talkin about bro? Chilli Peppers are totally sell outs. Have you heard any of their TRASH on the radio lately. It's terrible. They had one good album - now they suck. And MTV made them that way - if he did what MTV told him to, he would love the peppers.

NIN only affected a SMALL crowd, Nirvana impacted a MUCH LARGER group. Hands down, no contest, Nirvana is the best grunge band. Done.

I think the lyrics are great but the music sucks I dont even play guitar that much and I can play half of the BS they made.

[Schmidty]

Nirvana wishes they could be as grunge as AIC

[donniebrasco]

schmidty you really havent got a clue have you.

im guessing your quite young, i however was around in the grunge explosion and it is still my preffered music.

rhcp sold out big style, they perform at crappy mainstream music festivals infront of kids who are just into pop music. every single reaches the charts.
nirvana changed the direction of rock music back then.

if by go listen to teen spirit you are making a comment that its pop, may i point out to you that it was infact the first song like that. sure it may have had that commercial feel, but nirvana never wrote anything like that again. the albums released after went in different directions.
unlike rhcp who seem to get worse and worse.

mtv moves with the times, it is now more likely to be playing rhcp as it is commercial.
just like kerrang.

[Schmidty]

Im not saying that RHCP are more grunge then Nirvana, Im saying that Nirvan is over rated and their were other bands Like RHCP and NIN that put the Nails in the coffins of the hair bands

[donniebrasco]

i think the legacy nirvana / cobain left speaks for itself.

as for "killing off hair bands" just shows how easily people fold to new fashions and trends. im sure the people with a real passion for that music genre werent so easily lead.

i for example didnt follow the nu-metal scene ( however some good has come from it) and definately wont be following this emo shit

I bet you really like them deep down. LOL

[donniebrasco]

i wouldnt even class rhcp as a grunge band, but as a pop / rock band. they are too inconsitent with their material to be categoriesed within such a label.

Like I said a lil bit ago they arnt grunge. But they did change alot of things

[Schmidty]

Head like a hole paved the way for alot of other bands LIKE NIRVANA to come in

[donniebrasco]

I bet you really like them deep down. LOL

yeah im actually sitting here in my 9 year old sisters black jeans which have completely cut off the blood to my legs, with a haircut of which each individual hair is at a different length than any other, pointing in complete different directions. lol

Dude im at my school library and that shit just made me bust up

[donniebrasco]

like their guitarists a number of times, and music style.

[Schmidty]

See I would defend NIN and Chili Peppers till the day I die because they are sum of my favorite bands. But every band that has ever made it big has been acused at one point in time of being sell outs

[donniebrasco]

well it doesnt really matter, some-ones opinion which is based on their taste can never be wrong, as its their opnion
an opinion on fact is however is different.







but.
red hot chillis are crap. lol


quick lock the thread i want the last word.

[Schmidty]

Without NIN their would be no Nirvana

[Schmidty]

The one band that TOPS THEM ALL is THE CRASH TEST DUMMYSLOL

[Schmidty]

Maybe Nirvan left a bigger impact on the world but without NIN Nirvana would not have come around. And when Nirvana was around the Chili Peppers had like 2albums at the most and had not yet had a chance to sell out

[donniebrasco]

Without NIN their would be no Nirvana

nirvana formed before nine inch nails.

[Schmidty]

NOT TRUE, The head like a hole was released in like 88or 89

[donniebrasco]

NOT TRUE, The head like a hole was released in like 88or 89

the band which became nirvana- consisting of kurt / aaron / chris had formed in 1986 ( june) but played under the name nirvana in feb 1987 at a house party in raymond for the first time in public


purest feelings ( nin) first demo was made in early 89, by which time nirvana's bleach had already been released.
nin first offical release was down in it released late 89

[Schmidty]

My life is a lie. Im gona look into this again but this doesnt sound right. Either way I had a good time talkin music. Crash Test Dummys are the all ranking chaps either way.LOL

[J.S.N.]

you can't compare a highly original industrial band like NIN to nirvana, which was basically a more polished version of a group like the meat puppets or pixies. NIN is a much more developed concept, much musically and artistically.

[donniebrasco]

we arent actually comparing anything, i dont what we are actually doing.
apart from me showing that im anal about nirvana, ive been researching them for about 15 years. read every article every book collected every bootleg. etc

[Schmidty]

Anal Lol

[J.S.N.]

here's something not grunge, but same era:

what an interesting mix with the flute, tabla, bass, and organ.

[chest6]

mmmm soundgarden was good stuff

they r grunge correct?

[J.S.N.]

grungier than paris hilton's twat after an nba party - her valtrex

[JAYROD]

who is the best grunge band is nothing more than opinions whether you know nothing about music or if you have alot of knowlege (or just think you do) but there is no question that nirvana is the BIGGEST grunge band and had the most impact on music but you guy's in your early or mid 20's can't possibly know that because you didn't see the effect they made on music and how it changed because of them. i remember the style of clothing people wore changed that's how big they were. from what i remember nirvana, alice in chains and pearl jam were the big 3. there were many good bands that hit it big in the early 90's.
