I actually like Portland, Eugene, and the state of Oregon, but I know lots of poasters on here were born in that region so I tried to ruffle some feathers -
Of all the stupid shit splattered over this site, nay the Internet, this is stupidest, most splattered shit. I don't even have a problem with Modest Mouse really. Of all bands with the vocal stylings of an epileptic during a sneezing fit, they're up near the top. But MM is making bad coffee in the Lebanese-owned lobby Starbucks whilst Soundgarden is doing hookers-n-blow in the penthouse of One Rockatomi Plaza.

All other 90's grunge bands were just trying to be Nirvana. Nirvana was copying the Pixies.

You got the Pixies and Hendrix part right. Nirvana was also copying The Melvins, who way pre-date Nirvana. AiC, Soundgarden, Mother Love Bone (more glam than grunge but still), Gruntruck, Green River, Mudhoney, and on and on either came before or essentially at the same time.AZDuck said:All other 90's grunge bands were just trying to be Nirvana.Nirvana was copying the Pixies.

Nirvana was as much a Portland product as a Seattle one.
