Actually nirvana were better than all those shit like GNR, ACDC, Motley crue… All those college bands didn't create anything new, they were riding cliché and standards because they were NOT artists. They played the music that was invented by someone else, they studied a lot to do this. In fact, those bands always sounded the same. It's only music for kids that want to look bigger and cool.

I'm dissapointed in the writer. Sad-sack Kurt Cobain? When did he ever whine in his songs? Everybody makes him out to be this complaining, look-at-me, pessimistic person. In the end, yeah, he killed himself, but it doesn't mean he whined all the time, if ever. He was not a "sad-sack."

And to the first poster, did you SERIOUSLY say Motley Crue, an irrelevant macho-infused boring hair band, has more talent than Nirvana? If you're talking guitar chops, solos, guitar-dexterity, singing high-ass notes, then yeah they're "better." But when did instrument proficiency decide the more talented band? Kurt wrote great songs that elicited feeling (good feelings, might I add) from listeners. Motley Crue wrote songs in order to get girls to take their shirts off. Seriously, get a grip.

Nirvana was the opposite of "commercialized;" you truly don't know what you're talking about.

Finally someone said it! I hate Kurt Cobain. Grunge is for burnouts and brain-dead glue sniffers. You'd have to be completely devoid of any musical taste (or brain cells, for that matter) to say Nirvana had more talent than what Celtic Frost displayed on "Into The Pandemonium."

Accept, Celtic Frost, (old) Skid Row, (old) Ratt,(82/83) Motley Crue and AC/DC have more talent than anything Kobain had ever wished to achieve. The 80's was the last great decade for rock. Unfortunately, rock is dead thanks to Nirvana. Metal still lives though and it will NEVER die! Not so much "glam" but real heavy metal and I will take bands like Accept over the talentless, commercialized filth that has plagued the main$tream since 1992. and no, I'm not "living in the past." If you love something, you never abandon it.

Sorry for the seemingly "elitist" rant but I had to say it.

As for "The Wrestler", I give it two thumbs up.

Kobain Had more Talent and made better music than most of those other bands combined although I will admit to rocking out to AC/DC and Motley Crue.
