Holy shit! This just gave me fucking chills! No wonder why Kurt liked it so much. It sounds like Kurt's spirit fucking lives in this song! R.I.P dude we <3 you....
Nirvana´s sound for a song like this would have been dirtier, in my opinion. There are similarities but every instrument sounds clean and smart. But yes, first album by FF has reminiscenses of that era, the spirit is in there.
@barbarian981 I think that's because in recordings. Kurt usually recorded with a Jaguar or a Mustang i believe. Whereas Dave has recorded every Foo's record with a really odd guitar that sort of resembles a ES-335.
Dave was so influenced by Kurt at this point, it almost sounds like Nirvana. I can close my eyes and almost hear Dave's voice turn into Kurt's in this song.
@seatleson To me, this could never be a Kurt song. Dave Grohl's writing is smarter than Kurts - which doesn't necessarily mean better - I just feel Dave is using his brain more to write the music than Kurt, who uses his gut. Just my opinion.
Brings back memories of being sweet sixteen, wearing oversized cardigans, DM boots, stealing booze from our parents alcohol cabinets, going to my first festival, sneaking into local pub gigs, writing lyrics in tippex on friends bags...
By far my favorite Foo album. I just like the overall sound and composition. It really kicks into high gear starting with this song. Good times back in high school playing along on my guitar.
Jesus guys, this album was recorded on the 90's, and composed by a former grunge drummer, what do you expect it to sound like?

What pleases me with the Foo Fighters' debut album is that the rudimentary side of the production doesn't marr the excellence of the songs!

I guess thats why Kurt liked it.

@seatleson I was thinking exactly the same. This sounds so much like something grungy enough for Kurt to sing it.
