I was never a big Nirvana fan either. I think when yu listen to their music, its not hard to imagine Kurt killing himself. It just has that vibe about it.

The legend is that Nirvana completely changed the face of rock music, suddenly 80's pop was done, 80's metal done, grunge took over the airwaves. And that was true, but I think radio embraced it cause it was looking for something new and different. not because of how talented they were

The guy makes some good videos, I think we should have a section "what makes this song great" so we can discuss it.

Notice not ONE thing was said about the lyrics lol. not ONE thing. Thats cause the lyric is incoherent and just mumbo jumbo.

Which is fine, much of rock music doesnt have much to offer by way of lyric

He also said when speaking of all the intervals used "i know you guys are probably think, Kurt Cobain didnt know what he was doing" Also true, he was not sitting there saying, I need a flat 9, and a way to play these intervals. My personal feeling is he was just a scary dude, with issues, and he managed to express it well just by singing. "Hey, this sounds weird and angsty, good"

It also goes back to my post about tempo changes and dynamics. Something, that most home recording people dont consider, or are unable to consider.

Nirvana were huge, i remember how the radio sounded shortly after this release, but I think it was more about timing, looking for something different, and they were the spark.

If it spoke to a generation of Angst ridden youths, it didnt do it with lyrics.

I personally prefer Foo Fighters, with Dave Grohl as singer and guitar, instead of him on drums with Nirvana And have to wonder if Cobain didnt kill himself, would Dave ever have come out from the drums and start his own band?

But we should have a section where we all post songs to dissect
