is my second favorite rock band
great band, Kurt Cobain (R.I.P.) was IMO one of the best lyricists in rock music
any Nirvana fans around here?
-
though not being into rock at all I used to be a Nirvana fan when I was like 12 or somethig like that.. pretty much the only group/artist of that type of music I liked
-
i was a huge fan back in the day and still am...one of the greatest bands of all time, peace.
-
fuck yea, I love Nirvana. I'm not really into too much rock but I can always appreciate amazing music. Cobain is one of the best songwriters of our time imo
Favorite tracks are All Apologies and Heart Shaped Box
-
Nirvana's dope...its too bad Kurt Cobain killed himself...that was a huge loss to the music industry.
-
Don't like any of their studio albums, but their Unplugged cd is pure genious. All of their songs just sound better in that environment, and Cobain live is just something else, plus they mainly played their less heavy songs, which is what annoyed me on all the studio albums.
-
I like alot of Nirvana's music. Still listen to some of their stuff.
-
One of the few rock acts with actual talent..
99.5% of rockers today are plain eating off Kurt Cobains work, imo..

Uhhh, it's not like I didn't know that, but Nirvana did it on a bigger scale, they brought the rock/grunge to the masses, and suddenly you had mini-Kurt's going around everywhere.
It's not like I listen to a lot of rock, but the influences can be seen/heard everywhere.

i could name probably 200 bands that sound nothing like nirvana or kurt cobain. in fact the only one i can name that sounds like they've been strongly influenced by nirvana is seether. grunge died with kurt.

yeah when i was like 14 i bumped nirvbana and metallica a lot

Jome, you sound like a fuckin idiot...Please, just shut the fuck up.

Jome; I understand exactly what you're saying, these kids don't have any kind of sense of musical ability, they have no idea how Nirvana has influenced nearly every rock band out there, even some of their CONTEMPORARIES they influenced, bands that were out when they were. It's not that they're just copying Nirvana, it's just Nirvana left a big paw print on the music scene that everybody molded to. Ironically, though, Nirvana always, always reminded me of the Beatles, they're very beatlesque with their music and the way he structured songs. As Billy Joel said at his Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony, though "Hell yeah, I'm derivitave, there wouldn't be a white man in here if they took out everybody that was derivitive", also, John Lennon famously said "There's only 7 notes" so, while everybody sounds like Nirvana, that doesnt' have to be a bad thing. Take the Foo Fighters, for instance... of course they sound like Nirvana, Dave Grohl was in Nirvana, but they still are a very very talented band, even though they are derivitive of Nirvana.
-
lol, NIK and his groupies wants somebody to shut up.
The irony.. kids these days.
-
That damn song "Can ya take it all away", for instance, is the biggest Nirvana rip off I've ever heard. Come on "Everyone's so jaded, there's nobody left that's realllllll", he's trying his hardest to sound just like Kurt.
-

lmao...dude "Blurry" reminds me nothing of nirvana...Puddle Of Mudd is just another good band. its one thing to have a voice that sort-of sounds like an artist and thats all that it is. they dont have the grunge sound at all. its different to mimick an artist (for example the realest).

Not only does Jome not know what he's talking about, but Trauma is now on his side...LMAO...Jome lacks so much knowledge when it comes to music, that it's starting to piss me the fuck off...He says Eminem's "Can-I-Bitch" samples Snoop's "G Bedtime Stories," when it actually samples the well-known classic by Slick Rick, "Children's Story"...He says "Stunt 101" sounds like it's produced by Rockwilder...He discovered Tech N9ne after Tech N9ne has been out for the longest...He says G-Units new album is 4.25/5...He posted a link to some song that sounded like a Neptunes beat, and said it sounded like it was produced by Premo...He says Just Blaze's production style is a complete rip off of Timbaland, when in fact, they sound nothing a like...He said the Eminem "Wanksta" freestyle and D12's "Bump Heads" was new almost a year after they came out...He says Pharaoe Monch is the illest MC ever...He says Lloyd Banks is amazing, and is the next MC to blow, when he shows no potential/charisma whatsoever...He says Fabolous sucks, but 50 Cent rules...He labled "Where Is the Love" by Black Eyed Peas new about 6 months after it was played out...OMG, I can go on for dayyyyyyyyssss about why Jome is such a fake, but I'm gunna stop here, because I seriously feel bad for the guy...He tries too hard to get accepted as a Hip-Hop head, but has the same knowledge as that of a 12 year old female Eminem fan...I'm so sick and tired of seeing people praise Jome like he knows something...He's the only person on WCC that can make my head explode when I read his posts...That's the last time I want to have to adress Jome...Now we can finally squash this...PeACe

SONNNED is the only word that comes to mind.
-
i like nirvana.. havent listened to much lately.. had this g/f around the time kurt died and she had like a mini shrine to him in her room
-
^ You too? LOL that's how I got into them. She used to go to sleep when "All Apologies" came on the radio. I'm serious, it was amazing. That's how I got on her good side, hahaha, I bought her "Bleach". That was back before I even had a car, we walked to the mall.
-
haha yeah.. was a lil weird... she used to love this song "rape me"
-
Yeah, same here. I think maybe I was dating your girlfriend, I can't remember.
Anyways, Kurt wanted to perform "Rape Me" live on MTV, but they wouldn't let him, and told him to perform "Come as you are". So, he agreed to it, and then went out and started playing it, and sang the first 3 or 4 lines of "Rape Me" before he switched into it, he was a class act until he turned into a fucking IDIOT and killed himself, leaving his daughter with no daddy.
-
lol :)
-
i dont think i killed himself, im pretty sure it was murder, there was enough evidence
-
lmao...dude he killed himself. ::)
-
lmao...dude he killed himself. ::)
well, i thought so aswell, at first
of course im not sure, i just THINK he got murdered after some interesting evidence i heard
-
Man, I know it would be great to think he didn't do such a horrible thing... but he did. Everybody wants to villianize Courtney Love in this, but you gotta face it: He killed himself.
-
i dont think i killed himself, im pretty sure it was murder, there was enough evidence
Ummm, no.
-
Man, I know it would be great to think he didn't do such a horrible thing... but he did.
lol, i thought like that around 2 weeks ago, but for some reason, i started to doubt it
of course this so called detective who handles this case might aswell lie about the evidence to get some attention from the media, there are a lot of attention whores in the world today
so fuck it, we lost a great talent when we lost Kurt Cobain, so instead of wondering how he died, i should just enjoy his music that he made when he was still alive,thats much more fun anyways
-
why enjoy kurt cobains music when (according to jome) you can enjoy every other rock band out there because they have all derived from nirvana ::) ;D
-
I'm not agreeing totally with what Jome is saying... but when I'm in the car with my wife she plays alot of pop stations... and every other song that comes on sounds like it heavily takes from Nirvana's style, even down to the voice of the lead singer sounding like Cobane. I just get tired of the radio after about 7 songs because of it.
-
"Unplugged" was my favorite album...Followed by "In Utero"

Talk about twisting reality with lies, bullshit & actual facts that I have already stated, and mixing it further by putting it all on the edge.

As usual, Jamal is only 30 mins away to suck NIK's dick.
Do you even have 1 opinion that's not borrowed from NIK, or is this one of NIK's 100 backup accounts..
these kids don't have any kind of sense of musical ability, they have no idea how Nirvana has influenced nearly every rock band out there, even some of their CONTEMPORARIES they influenced, bands that were out when they were. It's not that they're just copying Nirvana, it's just Nirvana left a big paw print on the music scene that everybody molded to.
YUP, some kids like e.g. NIK can't see the influence though, in everything from their music, stage presence, media-image, lyrics, instruments, etc.
Of course I was exaggerating when I said 95% of rock, but the influence is bigger than big..
AND OF COURSE, NIK was somewhere between 4 and 10 years old when Nirvana was in their prime, OF COURSE HE'S NOT GONNA REMEMBER THEM, LMAO!!!
This clown is just too funny.
why enjoy kurt cobains music when (according to jome) you can enjoy every other rock band out there because they have all derived from nirvana ::) ;D
Bad copies dude.. you have 100 Pac's, but can they ever be like the original.. ?

That's probably the most responsible way to look at it, take the good you can get out of it, don't worry about the bad.
-
Bad copies dude.. you have 100 Pac's, but can they ever be like the original.. ?
who are you to say they are bad copies? in fact who are you to say they are copies at all?
basically what your saying is that rock is still around because of nirvana and 95.5% of rock bands out today wouldnt be here if they didnt bite nirvana's style...funny thing is 95.5% of the rock bands out there sound nothing like nirvana.

Naww, chill..
Read the whole post:
the influence though, in everything from their music, stage presence, media-image, lyrics, instruments, etc.
Of course I was exaggerating when I said 95% of rock, but the influence is bigger than big..
I just put it on the edge..
-
i've seen a lot of bands live...now i've never seen nirvana live but i've seen their unplugged shit and live vids...the bands i've seen are nothing like that.
their influence really wasnt shit...the only thing that kurt cobain had an influence on was lyrics...if it wasnt for him we would still be listening to "you shook me all night long...yeah you"...
but the sounds, the stage presence, lmao @ the media-image...theres not much anyone can do about that...thats how the media does it. none of that shit has anything to do with nirvana.
and instruments lmao...so your basically saying if it wasnt for kurt cobain rock would be played on flutes? because im sure guitars were not going out of style any time soon whether kurt was alive or not. and ive seen some instruments used that i'd be willing to be nirvana has never even heard of...incubus uses a didgeriedoo (i dont know how you spell that) on a few of their songs and when they are live.
now as for voice...you didnt mention anything about voice so this isnt necessarily directed at you jome...but thats possibly the most ignorant thing about this post is to say that because of a singers voice they are biting nirvana. lmao...nobody can help how they sound naturally. kurt cobain's voice wasnt anything special, it wasnt anything different than anyone elses...he just pulled it off better.
-
Nirvana's dope...its too bad Kurt Cobain killed himself...that was a huge loss to the music industry.
How did you go from this to your previous post.. ???
It's quite some time since Nirvana was big, and if you're 18 now, I'm not really sure how much you picked up back then.. when did you get into them ?

dude you dont have to be around that time to listen to music. for one i was into that kind of music at the time. that was when i first got into music at all. and two...so what if im 18, i still listen to marvin gaye, i still listen to phil collins...yet i wasnt around when they were in their prime.
and ill tell you exactly what i meant from my previous post. it was a huge loss to the music industry in that they lost a great act...great music can be hard to come by nowadays. they were one of the best acts out but truthfully their influence (other than lyrics) wasnt shit. yeah it had a lot of fans devastated when kurt died...nirvana was huge...same shit happened when pac died. same shit would happen if justin timberlake died...there would be millions of people upset about it.

Jome, you fucking moron who I sonned, I'm 17 years old and I own every Nirvana album. I am also a lot more open-minded musically than you are...Don't even come with that bullshit, I've already exposed you as a fake...You saying 99.5% of rock is an imitation of Nirvana is the same as some Rock fan saying 99.5% of rap is an imitation of 2Pac...It's just flat out ignorant...Please refrain from posting anymore bullshit on this thread...Thank you.

Don't make me laugh, you clown. Go have some interesting "Yes man"-convos with your buddy Jamal on AIM instead.
You gotta be around @ the time to feel their influence/impact.
Btw, I already said I exaggerated when I said 95%, read bitch.
If you can't see/hear the influence Nirvana had, you gotta be blind, tonedeaf, deaf, or dumb. (Or like in NIK's case, all of the mentioned)
Just because you was 4 to 10 at the time Nirvana was at their peak, doesn't mean that they didn't have a impact.
Ask your parents about The Beatles, same thing bigger scale.
dude you dont have to be around that time to listen to music.
nirvana was huge[/u]...
That's what I'm saying.. but I think you gotta be around at that time, to really know how much of a impact they made, and what influences they had to their contemporaries.

No problem, Nirvana always get shit about no talent, or Kurt committing suicide, but history will show them as a turning point in music.

This has got to be the dumbest thing I've ever heard in my mutherfucking life...Almost all the bands Trauma idolizes weren't at their prime while Trauma was around...Does that make Trauma any less of a fan? No, you fucking moron...I guess my teacher can't really appreciate Shakespeare writing, since she wasn't around during his time...Look at how fucking stupid you sound, Jomo.
Just because you was 4 to 10 at the time Nirvana was at their peak, doesn't mean that they didn't have a impact.
Ask your parents about The Beatles, same thing bigger scale.
I know they had a big impact, you idiot, I never said they didn't...I just thought your 99.5% comment was extremely idiotic, so I chose to humiliate you in front of WCC...PeACe
PS, I was around when Nirvana came out.

Smells like teen spirit is my fav nirvana song..
r.i.p. curt, he was a great lyricist
-
That damn song "Can ya take it all away", for instance, is the biggest Nirvana rip off I've ever heard. Come on "Everyone's so jaded, there's nobody left that's realllllll", he's trying his hardest to sound just like Kurt.
lmao...dude "Blurry" reminds me nothing of nirvana...Puddle Of Mudd is just another good band. its one thing to have a voice that sort-of sounds like an artist and thats all that it is. they dont have the grunge sound at all. its different to mimick an artist (for example the realest).
I didn't think Puddle of Mudd's older tracks sounded like Nirvana, but however their newer tracks off of 'Life on Display' do imo*. When i first heard 'Away From Me' it reminded me a lot of 'In Bloom' combined with sections of Teen Spirit.
Wether they are or not, Nirvana had a major impact on the music industry, so i guess it's only natural that a lot of bands today would be influenced by their music.
I remember a quote by Kurt that went something along the lines of, "It's better to be blown out, than to fade away". It's a great shame he had to take a literal approach to it tho, but the Nirvana 'legacy' i'm sure will continue and i wouldn't be suprised if I still pull out the old Nirvana albums in 15,20 years time, like people do with the Beatles.
