: Whether you like them or not, there is no way all the shit MTV and VH1 and Rolling Stone say whilst having contests to see exactly how far up Cobain's dead rectum they can get their tongues is true. They weren't saviors of rock and roll.
I'm so tired of being told that Nirvana defined my generation. They were OK, but they weren't better than anyone else that came out at the same time. And they certainly shouldn't be held up as the paragon of "grunge" music.
I swear, they would have died out long since as a band, if Cobain hadn't immortalized himself by bravely killing himself.
