Metallica...if you can grungers can handle it. The rest were weak "alternative" excuses for rock and roll, which is really what we're talking about here. History speaks for itself, just as the punk pukes before them, the grunge bastards came and went and nobody will remember them years later when they get old. Look at Johnny Rotten, he's completely dated and irrelevant. Take Cobain, who thought that by committing suicide he would somehow automatically inherit the throne of the Jimmy's and Janis' before him, his music only matters to those who happened to grow up in his generation and nobody else.

I think Nirvana still sucked. It's all about promotion and what the big fat guy behind the desk THINKS the kids want to hear. We will never know of many new bands who tried to make it after the hair band generation. Just because some dudes got together in Seattle and had their own big party scene where every band (especially the vocalists) sounded the same and dressed the same and smelled the same didn't mean that's what the whole friggin planet wanted. Pretty soon everybody is convinced it must be good just because it's the only thing being spoon fed on the radio even though most probably hated it from the start.
This is just my opinion so you can refrain from getting personal.
