70"s Hear was not for girls and homos, flea. They were big in Shelton even. Led Zeppelin wannabes. I'm not talking faggy 80's video Heart
Yeah - I hear you. Everyone listened to and wanted to bang the Wilsons when Dreamboat Annie and Little Queen were out. It was good music.
But then they went horribly wrong - and miraculously, the albums I thought were pieces of shit were their biggest sellers.
I don't give a fuck that Pearl Jam sold more than Soundgarden, either - Badmotorfinger and Superunknown are albums I can listen to over and over and I don't think PJ ever had an album I wanted to play over again.
It makes sense Jimi would set the bar. Who the fuck in the world doesn't like Jimi?
Every offseason this board has a "Seattle Grunge Superiority Guy" Thread.
Always, the final consensus is Pearl Jam sucks.
There is only one true Grunge Superiority Guy, and we're still waiting to hear from him about how Soundgarden blows them all away. Paging * @Blackie *.
Ehh. You like what you like.
But you're an incompetent ass if you don't have Cornell as a top 3 rock vocalist and lyricist of the past 30 years.

Melvins, Mudhoney, and Tad are better than Soundgarden.

Cept NOGAF about most of them outside the NW.

you don't say? I'm shocked a genre that was largely regional before being infiltrated by A&M, Columbia, and Geffen would have many noteworthy / influential artists that the fans of the Top-40 radio frontrunners don't know about.
Comments
Nirvana 75 million
PJ 60 million
AIC and Heart both at 35 million
Soundgarden 22.5 million
But number one looks like Jimi Hendrix, with 80 million sold worldwide.

Can only take so much disrespect for a master work.
