Dave brought a more pure punk/hardcore energy and dynamic to Nirvana in his driving, powerful, simple but effective drum work. I can recognize Dave's drumming on anything he works on, shit I had never heard anything at all about Them Crooked Vultures, and I by random coincidence hear a tune one day with my pops and say, "shit is that Dave Grohl on the drums?"

Dave's drum work is what made Nirvana, it shaped the music in its entirety, guitar work (especially as minimalist as Kurt's) is nothing without accompanying drum work. And these drums, especially live, bring out the best in the guitar player, its all fluid. Everything integrally works together, no matter how desperate Kurt was when he let Courtney convince him to change the original Nirvana layout and take 75% for really no reason at all..

Any musician here should be able to attest to the integral and fundamental importance of the fluidity and true collaboration between instrument players, its not like orchestral music where you just sit there are read the sheet.

regardless, he's a cunt.
many other drummers can drum without being cunts (so they say) and starting whiney shitty generic bands with stupid names writing mediocre to unbereable songs about how they miss someone they were never close to.
