From the last 20 years...


Just wanted to feel the consensus around here....
Conversations getting dull
There's a constant ringing in my ears
Sense of humor's void and numb
And I'm bored to tears.......

    soundgarden....perhaps he could have been saved
    I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again.

    Some die just to live.

    not so much a band as a person. kurt cobain.
    i think he would have moved past nirvana and gone on to do some interesting stuff, most likely outside music, as well as within it. the man was more than his music, im sure of that.

    hold my hand
    lie beside me

    I'm torn between Soundgarden and the Beatles.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.

    The Beatles, The Doors and Hendrix dont realy count as they are not from the last 20 years.

    I got to say I wish Kurt was still here making music, there is always a sadness surrounding and taking away from part of the songs when ever I listen to or here Nirvana now, it's annoying the man could have been so much more.

    1.Nirvana
    2.Pantera
    Both Kurt and Dime were great muscians IMO. Dime had a great sound that a lot of poeple didn't check out because of the speed/death metal thing and I feel Kurt could have done somemore great things. Later yostarama

    I agree. I always looked forward to Soundgarden's new releases, never got to see AIC and I think Kurt would have done some amazing things. :)
