I hate to bring negativity to the forum, but i freely admit that i hate Nirvana. I understand that they were at the right place at the right time and everything was in line for them to bring grunge to the mainstream. But there's two things really....i think the music is so very dull and tedious to listen to, and i can't believe it was Nirvana who made grunge famous. Kurt Cobain for the most part seemed like a bit of a tool in interviews, and there really was nothing special about the music. It was simple, boring and Kurt's voice drives me nuts.

I understand that if Nirvana hadn't broken into the mainstream then PJ may not have become popular, so for that i'm glad. But i don't think i'll ever understand how people can talk about their music being innovative and amazing. It's just dull.

Sorry, negativity over!

As far as Ramones go, their music makes me wanna dance!

I totally agree with you that they were not innovative. They were modern punk. Kinda an updated version of punk.

Modern Punk is not Green Day, Blink 182, etc.

I will always love Nirvana.


*Had to edit* By the way, I will always love The Ramones too.
