Notice that my comment was a contrasting reply to someone saying "nirvana is the best band ever." I was making a point using an extreme.
Yes they probably aren't the most overrated band ever. I think there are too many extreme opinions on Nirvana. So many people either really hate them or they worship them & Kurt Cobain.
Hell no Nirvana is awesome and how can you overrate them? They deserve that rating and they are the forefathers of GRUNGE music!! Nirvana rox and so does Kurt C.
Forefathers of grunge would be more appropriately applied to Green River (who would later become Mudhoney) & The Melvins.
You can easily overrate them, just as you just did by calling them the forefathers of grunge. You are just further reinforcing my views/experiences with Nirvana fanboys (I live in Seattle, so I run into it all the time).
Nirvana is good, but they are in no way the forefathers of grunge. That's like calling the Sex Pistols the forefathers of punk, Elvis Presley the forefather of rock, and Judas Priest the forefather of metal. That's just ignorant of groups and people like The Stooges and Iggy Pop, Chuck Berry, and Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin. As previously stated, bands like Green River, The Melvins, and Mudhoney factored into it a lot.
And, despite not being grunge bands, groups like Dinosaur Jr., the Pixies, and Husker Du had a lot to do with the grunge that came out of the early nineties.
Haha, talking about that political stuff instead of the song? Might as well. Most people (not the mainstream loving people, but real rock enthusiasts) know that this song and this band kicks ass, so you might as well have thoughtful discussions instead of stating the obvious eh?
Ahem. LOL! I'm LUFC. We've never got on with Scum United! Our number one rivals! Yes I'm going to check him out. He seems to have had a crazy life. I'll have a look at his stuff, his concerts look mental. I'm off to bed now you SCUM MANU BASTARD! We wont be able to have our usual chit chat tomorrow cos I'm going out to get wrecked. Have a good weekend.
Mmmm inside job? I think they defintely knew it was coming. I don't think they engineered it as such.Monitered it , yes. An attack of pearl harbour proportions would be the best excuse to go to war. The only tenuous link the people had to buy was that Iraq was involved in some way. Given the history it wouldn't seem that hard.
I've been reading about him on wiki, he's seems like a true rock and roll nut. He reminds me of a guy I know whos a nut on stage. Seriously. I'm not in the army. I had a taster in the Paras on Sep 13th 2001. But I knew it was all bullshit and I was a bit too old for it anyway. If I thought for a second we'd go to war for valid ethical reasons, maybe. I toyed with the idea too long, thank god. I'm into the arts, non-martial. Any idiot can pull a trigger.
True. Never been to Iraq as such. Flown over it. Never killed a womam or child either. I'm guessing you're American hiding behind false flag. Don't be ashamed.
And acid house these days is shit but when it was original then it wasnt (pre chavs days)... there again your the expert on all things music wise so i should really bow down to your greatness.. but seeing as your currently sucking your dog off, im not going to bother.
I suggest you sit and wait patiently for high school musical 3 to be released then your pent up frustration can be satisfied. Nonce!
now you have to resort to my spelling oh dear! you really are scraping the barrel arent you!(they said the same to your mum when she changed her mind (too late) about the abortion)
Anyway dont you have to go, the pets r us will be closing soon and im sure you need more hamsters to run up and down the tube you petshop boy!
if you you need that sense of achievement of being right, then i will not deny you that, i mean in the world we all need a little piece of something to hang on to and i wouldnt want to take yours away (not yet anyway)
I am not in a position to judge the quality of Es over the past 10yrs, you so obviously are which explains your diminshed mental state. Since when has having an opinion constitute starting shit.. you ballsucking cum smearing dog walking piss flap like a saddle bag arsehole
let me refresh your weak and feeble memory ... to quote "most of the people here wouldn't be on this video if it wasn't for kurt. how many albums did they sell because they were "kurts favorite band"? show some respect you fucking gimp"
Haha back in the days.. still fuckin do Es knobcheese. And how predictable, you look at my profile and make such poor obvious comments... a 4yr old could have been more imaginative then you... if you are going to insult then at least put a little bit of thought..
perhaps you need to join Mr C on the plateau in the sky. I will even pull the trigger after all your are such a fucking retard i couldnt trust you to do it yourself, you probably end up shooting your mum(that is her in the profile picture right?). 35yr old with a mental capacity of a goldfish I guess your just another case of arrested Development.I bet your glad that burger king has a positive attitude to hiring dickheads job 4 life 4 you.. . WANT FRIES WITH THAT?!
I have just trawled throught mindless, pointless and downright immature comments that have been posted on here. your arguments are so flawed, people only listen to Melvin because it was cobains favorite band... so does that mean people only listen to oasis because they liked the beatles? I only listened to Nirvana because they were influenced by Black Sabbath and led zepplin (as demonstrated on the Bleach album)What a fucking load of shit arsehole!
On lates tomorrow, I'll catch you on Friday. Finish 6 - usual meeting spot. See you there. Do you think you can leave Nirvana fans alone until then you animal?
haha...No not a big fan. good tune though. As stated, i don't mind Nirvana. Every Melvins tune i listen to has got some argument about Nirvana. It's an insult. It's about time people stopped fantasising about his death and start knocking him down a peg or two.
I think he thought you were me. I thought he was you for a min. LOL. You not playing Saturday then? Big night friday. I'll bring my Nirvana albums round, I know how much you like them!
No argument. I don't like trolls whatever their age. I don't use macho shit on the internet,what's the point? You seem to be very insecure even sat at your pc talking shit to a complete stranger. If was to be macho I'd tell you I'd come down to your street corner and slap the dick out of your mouth while you were working but how could I? I don't know what street that is do I? Keep your self inflating bullshit comments to yourself in future if you don't want to attract "trolls".
Troll? I don't think so. Your powers of observation are weak. I merely explained the simple laws of structural tension when everyone else is freaking about unless you're refering to that 16 year old keyboard warrior I made mincemeat of for insulting me. You want to be next?
I am The Chief. Tell us all genius what did he stand for? Little shits combing youtube blabbing on about none of us would be here watching this had it not been for Kurt? What the fuck are you on? "Pathetic Twat"? I'm in awe.
I find it hard to say something bad about Nirvana or Kurt being a fan for nearly 20 years and knowing everything there is to know about them I know one thing. He'd think you're a cunt.
Get over Kurt Cobain. He wrote four reasonable good albums. End of. Go and listen to the Smells like teen spirit son. Buy a plaid shirt while your at it. I forgot it's still 1991.
Ahh, But call me such things, i was just relaying what the singer of Melvins had said when interviewed about Kurt on the album Houdini, notibly for Sky Pup. But i said in my own words sort of thing, because I feel that those albums that melvins got because of Kurt, Were his sort of owed thanks for "getting me here". By the way, I never said I don't respect Kurt. Just saying, He didn't do shite on the albums he hung around for.
Plus his hair is nowhere near as cool as King Buzzo's! And Nrivana has admitted to being heavily influenced by Melvins/Mudhoney AND Dale Crover drummed for them for a little...so if anyone says anything about Kurt being the original they are complete dumbasses.
His non-pop stuff was amazing, but once he got big, he just did total shit.
If I'm listening to Nirvana, I don't want to tune into some pleasing and easily accepted catchy music, I want to damage my ears and piss off the neighbors, ya know.
ya gotta remember it was apparantly largely the censorship of his music that pissed him off most and contributed to his demise into drug addiction, seemingly he agrees with you from the grave
These guys, Soundgarden and Malfunkshun are the true leaders of grunge. Nirvana only copied everything they did off of Mudhoney. I don't understand why Cobain gets so much praise... he it a mediocre guitarist and semi-decent vocalist. With Soundgarden, the Melvins and Malfunkshun, there is talent with all the band members and song writing.
This song is flawless. Awesome riff, awesome bridge, awesome chorus. I discovered Melvins just a couple of months ago, and now I totally love the band.
The time has come for this band to hit it really BIG. The new album: NUDE WITH BOOTS has a lot of mass-appeal potential but its still Melvins without compromise.
well 1st of all, no one had ever been that heavy since Sabbath. Saint Vitus were pretty heavy, but no where near MELVINS. Their heaviness and the way they approach the riff made it possible for all the incredible Doom/Drone/SLudge that came after them to shape itself.
Second of all, if you consider this an imporant fact, not a single "grunge" band would have existed had it not been for the MELVINS.
Not many people know this but Curt Cobain was a Roady for the Melvins before he was in Nirvana ... Some of the Nirvana songs sound an a lot like Melvins songs. The Melvins were heavly influnced by Black Sabith not fucking KISS as i saw someone say.
evrey 1 fucking knows kurt used to be their roadie ya fucking duche and even at that buzz said he was a shit roadie but a cool guy so they kept him around
I'd start with houdini then stoner witch then maybe gluey porch treatments, and go from there. these guys are the shit. if theres one band tool wished they could be its The Melvins....

This song is flawless. Awesome riff, awesome bridge, awesome chorus. I discovered Melvins just a couple of months ago, and now I totally love the band.

The time has come for this band to hit it really BIG. The new album: NUDE WITH BOOTS has a lot of mass-appeal potential but its still Melvins without compromise.
Buzz and Dale are god.

well 1st of all, no one had ever been that heavy since Sabbath. Saint Vitus were pretty heavy, but no where near MELVINS. Their heaviness and the way they approach the riff made it possible for all the incredible Doom/Drone/SLudge that came after them to shape itself.
Second of all, if you consider this an imporant fact, not a single "grunge" band would have existed had it not been for the MELVINS.

One of the greatest Rock songs ever written.
Houdini is definately NOT the best Melvins album.
The MELVINS Kiss solo EPs were definately NOT Kiss covers (LMAO). They were some of the most vile, fucke up things ever recorded.
The MELVINS are the most important rock band of the last 25 years.

Not many people know this but Curt Cobain was a Roady for the Melvins before he was in Nirvana ... Some of the Nirvana songs sound an a lot like Melvins songs. The Melvins were heavly influnced by Black Sabith not fucking KISS as i saw someone say.
