@exedeath You will be hard pressed to find one piece of art that is not inspired by something else. you need to listen to more music.

@Supersweetguy

They dont know this band. Also some problably think "nirvana is so fucking good, so this means that this band ripped off killing joke, because they wouldnt need to rip off another band".

@iangarnettify

Not every song comes from other songs. You should listen to more music.

@YouGotWoodRolled There are a good number of bands directly influenced by Nirvana.  The only one I can think of was the vines, but Nirvana took the eighties style of rock and transformed it into something completely new, making it much harder. Nevermind itself was one of the biggest forces that destroyed hair metal, and brought the definition of hard and loud to a whole new level

@iangarnettify I can make the case that Nirvana weren't really that influential, musically-speaking. They became a cult of personality but without any artistic importance. They did spawn some wannabe grunge bands but none of them ended up being any good. The indie bands of the 80's (on labels such as Touch and Go, Merge, AmRep) have done way more to influence the current pool of rock musicians. The Beatles are still cited everyday by musicians as a direct influence. Nirvana? Not so much.
