Tru! Nirvana hahahaha Grunge (seattle grunge at that, you know, the flannel, hair in the face, I'm sad cause I'm all pimply type music)
Nirvana != Punk.
And I think its wrong to say that Nirvana can be called responsible for making anything mainstream.
They came from the city that gave us STARBUCKS!!
Not to mention that Perl Jam (Who I would argue has a bigger following than Nirvana) was making just as big of a splash at the time as Kurt and Dave and the other guy.....
(I don't like nirvana, but I do like the foofighters.....??)
Oh, and the Beatles are like Elvis. They'll never be matched.
