Who's your favorite of the three? This will probably be moved to another forum but just wondering what the consensus is around here since everyone here has at one time or another been into these bands.

As for me, as much as i love all three bands, I go with Nirvana on top basically because i'm a huge In Utero fan. that being said, they're the least talented of the three bands (in my opinion). Alice is the best I think. Cantrell is god. Still Nirvana is my favorite of the three.

    As much as I love Soundgarden, it has to be Alice In Chains.

    Soundgarden, then Alice, then nirvana.

    anyone who EVER says nirvana was better than those two bands or pearl jam..... well.. they don't have good taste and probably have below average intelligence.

    in my opinion, you can't be a Pearl Jam fan AND a Nirvana fan. It's one or the other.

    Just like you can't be a Red Sox fan AND a Yankee's fan. Just doesn't work.


    Go Sox! Good luck today Beckett.

    It's a close call between AIC and Soundgarden. I think Alice just wins it for me. Nirvana is definitely third.

    Very close between AIC and Soundgarden...They contain my two favorite musicians, Jerry Cantrell and Chris Cornell. Nirvana is a distant third although I do like them as well. Aic and Soundgarden are actually sometimes ahead of Pearl Jam at times.
    I caught a flash of flash of your smile through the fog of a dream, I'll have a hell of a time I clearly see, I can't be by your side, see you when I sleep.
