    In fairness to me, I hate grunge

    You misspelled music. And history.

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

    Jimi Hendrix is in his own category.

    DON'T PUMP MY GAS DOG

    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.
    Fucking this. You beat me to it. The Melvins end this discussion.

    My list would be AIC>Soundgarden>>>>>>Pearl Jam> Nirvana. I like all of then though and they are pretty much always in the rotation for me. I don't listen to any newer Pearl Jam though. I can't get into it.

    All the grunge bands are solid but I can't listen for more than a few songs at a time. I would rather listen to Tool.

    Tool is good too. It's too bad 95% of the new rock bands suck. Not to mention, rock isn't considered cool anymore so kids won't grow up wanting to be rock stars. They would rather press buttons and fist pump.

    Meh, I'm sure Socrates said the same thing. The good stuff is out there. Dig into the psycho-billy/alt-alt-country scene.

    Modest Mouse > Soundgarden

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

    This thread finally delivers! All it took was AZDuckFS to rile up the masses and so we can unite as one.
