Quote from: sepehr^` on April 05, 2006, 05:56:58 PMehh r.i.p i guesshe killed himself tho, thats cowardlyI'm not implying it's true but there have been a lot of questions regarding whether it was really a suicide. Somethiing about the amount of heroin in his body was too much to be able to pick up a shot gun and shoot it. It made it on a couple of TV shows like Hard Copy way back in the day but most have been quiet about since. I don't know personally and I don't really care one way or another, I'm just putting it out there.As for his talent, he was definately a great composer and poet. I think he gets way overexaggerated by some of his hard core fans, and I think some of those hard core fans have it to positions in the media world where they can push his greatness more than it should be pushed. For example when talking about the early 90s alt Rock boom people rarely ever mention the other bands that were in the same league as Nirvana and also had a great deal to do with alternative music being popular. R.E.M., Pearl Jam, the Chili Peppers, the Smasing Pumkins, etc. Nirvana may have been the only one of the big bands to be so heavily punked influenced but most of the scene of the time was not so much punk rock. The point is that there were a lot of huge bands in the early 90s and only one keeps getting shoved down our throats by MTV and music mags. (But then again the same can be said for Elvis and all the other Rock and Rollers of the 50s that made it big. I guess the media just decides to pick one guy and give him all the credit). (Of course alt Rock/Grunge did not have the historical impact of Rockabilly or 50s Rock in general nor will it ever, but that's neither here nor there).
Kurt is to 90s rock what 50 is to Rap
I meant that Kurts music was shite.
Kurt Cobaine is a prime example of another artist that is completely over exaggerated because he died. He wasn't that good....so what if he did a lot to bring grunge to the mainstream...that lasted...what? 5 years? 8 years? who gives a crap. The sad shit about it is how everyone is still on his dick. Maybe i get the worst of it living here in seattle...But its fuckin terrible...our rock station 107.7 does a show called Nightly Nirvana where they play a bunch of nirvana songs in a row....and if thats not enough they play atleast 2 nirvana songs every hour....i mean damn...nirvana only had a few good songs...most of it sucked balls...but yet he's "a legend"who gives a fuckHear hear.
