These guys are awesome! What fool would rate them in worst bands?

Nirvana pushed most hair metal away that shows how good they are also it's not like Kurt wanted to be famous he didn't hate fans but he didn't enjoy it as much as other bands he enjoyed most which he's amazing at making songs also it's funny seeing people say how do people live without them there annoying they give me headaches also have some dumb songs there overrated

People have their points, They are one of the reasons metal died, outclassed Guns N Roses making Rock Fans Angry. I like both bands, But I seem to like Guns N Roses more because that's just my style and I don't listen to grunge.

The People Who Put Nirvana On The Worst Bands Lists Are Probably Die Hard Hair Rock Fans Who Are Upset That Something Different Blew Them Out The Water In That Era

Nirvana rules. I can understand how people don't like them, but they really do rule

He had tasted some previous success with The [original] Yardbirds and was friendly with some big names in rock. Page states it was Keith Moon of The Who that claimed the band could only go down, like a lead balloon -- thus prompting the iconic name of Led Zeppelin. The band's heavy, guitar-driven sound, rooted in blues and psychedelia on their early albums, has earned them recognition as one of the progenitors ...read more.
