Boring song choice for karaoke.Doog_de_Jour said:This one was tough. But the fact that “Welcome to Jungle” is my go-to karaoke song, my vote goes to G N’ R.

#5 Guns N' RosesMy cousins friend was a total grunge fag. I remember him making fun of me for sticking with hair bands when we were drinking and driving 95 while my cousin did blow off his girlfriend's tits or whatever (only a small exaggeration) on Highway 200 in Idaho and Montana in June of '93. Backpack and Jstyles or whatever, don't act like this. Bill PSA.
Oh yeah, my point: I hated grunge and grunge snobs for a long time. Go GNR -

Nirvana though had 2 great studio albums vs 1 for GNR. Nirvana basically brought a whole new genre to the forefront. GNR took Stones, Stooges, New York Dolls, Zeppelin, Aereosmith, etc, and blended it into an updated gritty and ballsy type of hard rock / metal, but I don't think it was as revolutionary as Nirvana.dnc said:Very little passion about this one either way, could have been the one and two seeds. Both bands who self destructed (if for different reasons) before putting out a huge body of work but what they did out together is fucking legendary. Ultimately smack > yayo.

#1 NirvanaIt is amazing watching everyone trying to rationalize not voting for Nirvana. We get it. You're not a Northwest stereotype. Not impressed. GNR is good and all but nothing compared to Nirvana. Also Duff is a Husky Fan you wretched homers.

#1 NirvanaNot even close. GnR was a good rock band in the style of other rock bands.
Nirvana changed popular music and culture.
Also, Fuck LA bands. -
#1 NirvanaFuck ya!

#5 Guns N' RosesAbsolutely easy choice. Was grunge even a thing after 1995? I still listen to Appetite Lies and Illusion, haven't heard a Nirvana song in maybe ten years

GnR resuscitated hard rock when it was on life support after being pussified by hair/glam bullshit. Nirvana headed the grunge movement. Both were flavors of the month that lasted a couple years. GnR stands the test of time for me; Nirvana, not at all. Nirvana didn't kill GnR; they did it to themselves, just like KurtYellowSnow said:

And GnR did a damn good job of it. I still listen to Appetite regularly. Still, Nirvana wasn't just the leader of the grunge pack, rather, they made alternative the mainstream style of the 90s, which was a YUGE deal. Hell, even by '93 GnR was doing an album of punk covers, which is a testament to Nirvana's influence.BearsWiin said:
