Aaron Robinson Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 I've never really understood why Nirvana gets so much hate. I mean yeah, they were overplayed and outclassed by other bands within the same genre, but I don't think they were bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolette Opal Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 I've never really understood why Nirvana gets so much hate. I mean yeah, they were overplayed and outclassed by other bands within the same genre, but I don't think they were bad. I get this. At a base level, really, why should anyone hate on any kind of music. In this case (and in many cases), I don't think the hate is the music...it's the fans. I mean, for fuck sake, people make pilgrimages to Seattle to go sit and cry about it near the house where he died. Still. If that's not a deep, deep well of weird/annoying/get a life/enough to make any mention of a mediocre band worth pulling your hair out over, well, then, I don't know what it is.

James D. Posted January 5, 2010 Report Share Posted January 5, 2010 Seriously. I'm one of the biggest AiC fans alive, but I'm not about to hop on a plane to go mourn at Layne Staley's grave. (And Alice in Chains was/still is EASILY better than Nirvana was.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted January 12, 2010 Report Share Posted January 12, 2010 Been kind of burned out on rock lately, so I've been listening to Amel Larrieux's Bravebird album. Great, calming soul music. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest DCAUFan1051 Posted March 1, 2010 Report Share Posted March 1, 2010 RIP Tom "T-Bone" Wolk dang this is sad. I grew up on Hall & Oates and watched T-Bone play with them all the time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dread Posted March 2, 2010 Report Share Posted March 2, 2010 Listening back through Metallica's discography as of late and I'm struck by how poor of an album Kill 'Em All is. Even for speed metal, Anthrax and Exodus had them beat all the way in this period. Especially considering how accomplished an album Ride the Lightning. I think the first two minutes of For Whom the Bell Tolls is pretty much as good as heavy metal instrumentalization gets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
