Thank you but not thank you. Even David Bowie managed better in terms of influencing mass culture. The music itself isn't even that weird or interesting anyway.

That is not a fair analysis. While nirvana didnt have a singular image or message, their cultural impact and footprint is undeniable. Before nirvama people listened to guns&roses and michael jackson records, after nirvana they listened to a slightly more diverse blend of bands. Also, courtney love more sincere?? Youre totally fucking trolling us right? Listen, I honestly think live through this is one of the best records of the 90s.grunge.era but lets not kid outselves, courtney love may just be the epitome of plastic, manipulative, and outright lying people to ever walk this earth
