The Nirvana Thread
 
We very much need this thread, so here it is. Post anything on your mind about Kurt and Co.

To start off. Bleach > Nevermind.

MESSAGE FOR CHABIB: Given all of our opinions on Nirvana, some humourous and less serious, where do you think this should go? I meant to put it in the Non-Sonic Sonics.

For a start, I'm ALMOST inclined to agree with you.

Ultimately though, if you want a song-orientated album, I reckon Nevermind has it. But artistically, hell yeah, Bleach is the god. I for one prefer it.

Predictable reply?

The very first band I got into, besides The Beatles when I was young.

schizophrenicroom 03.21.2006 10:04 PM

Same here. I was obsessed with the Beatles when I was young.

Jt 03.21.2006 10:07 PM

Why stop with youth? I'm still obsessed. For me, they're not just some phase, y'know... on the one hand, you can listen to the most obscure/out-there alternative shit, but... you've got to appreciate the brilliance of their stuff. Even now, I listen to A Day In The Life and just think... "fuck."

marleypumpkin 03.21.2006 10:09 PM

The Beatles will always be the best band ever. No doubt in my mind.

marleypumpkin 03.21.2006 10:11 PM

Schizo- Do you have any rare Beatles stuff?

Jt 03.21.2006 10:12 PM

Yeah, but... don't you think a lot of people are losing sight of that?

Increasingly it's all about which band are wearing the tightest jeans and t-shirts and playing the best three chords, as opposed to at least ACKNOWLEDGING the huge contribution to music and art that they represented.

schizophrenicroom 03.21.2006 10:14 PM

Marley- Nope :(

Very well put, no one realizes that The Beatles are the foundation of transcendence in music. They're not one type of music.

Jt 03.21.2006 10:17 PM

I don't know; it just seems almost like they're ridiculed now instead of held up as icons. "Ohhh, my dad listens to them..." Fuck off, y'know?

I have a whole cd full of radio performances, demos, & outtakes that I could upload for you.

I wear tighter jeans and t-shirts than anyone.

I am god.

Jt 03.21.2006 10:18 PM

I wear mine BENEATH my skin. So smoke it, hard and fast.

Everyneurotic 03.21.2006 10:20 PM

the shitty beatles? are they any good?

nir-who? never heard of them, are they on american tapes or load or hanson?

Jt 03.21.2006 10:23 PM

Maaan, I'm not a play-thing just to be pissed off at will, y'know... :(

I'm going to bed anyway. I might listen to the White(y) album a while first though. Being the artistic masterstroke that it is. Adios.

HaydenAsche 03.21.2006 10:23 PM

LOAD is teh almighty record label.

Everyneurotic 03.21.2006 10:28 PM

maybe they have released stuff thru deathbomb arc or chocolate monk

Inhuman 03.21.2006 10:31 PM

I think Nirvana's lesser known stuff is a little better than the well known stuff. Songs like Marigold and Something's in the Way are what really get to me. Kurt was a genius

HaydenAsche 03.21.2006 10:33 PM

I really dug the box set. Nevermind was a decent album. None of their stuff really appeals to me anymore though.
