Best Nirvana Band Members

The Top Ten
1 Kurt Cobain Kurt Cobain was born February 20, 1967, in Aberdeen, Washington. In 1987, he started the grunge band Nirvana, which became one of the most successful bands ever. He was a talented yet troubled grunge performer. Kurt Cobain became a rock legend in the 1990s with his band. He committed suicide at his Seattle home in 1994.

It was such a burden choosing one of them cause I like dave's drum beats but I also love krist's drum beats but kurt's sloppy guitar and rasp voice is so amazing!

I honestly prefer Daves attitude, but I can't choose over the two! They both have iconic voices, and are both good ( Dave slightly better ) at guitar!

2 Dave Grohl David Eric "Dave" Grohl is an American rock musician, multi-instrumentalist, singer, songwriter, producer and film director. He is best known as the former drummer of the hugely popular 90s grunge band Nirvana and the vocalist/guitarist for the alternative rock band Foo Fighters. He has sat behind the drums for many bands and artists, most notably: Queens of the Stone Age, Tenacious D, Ghost B.C, Them Crooked Vultures, Tom Petty, Nine Inch Nails, Pearl Jam, David Bowie, Scream, Probot and many, many more.

Kurt Cobain was a slightly better songwriter and more iconic, but Grohl's guitar playing was better than Cobain's, his voice is just as good if not better, and he is extremely talented across many different instruments. Neither Kurt Cobain nor Krist Novoselic could have written and performed an entire album on their own.

No offense To Kobain but grohl is superior in every way. Lyricism, vocals, drums, guitar, I could go on.

He's better at guitar, drums and singing.

3 Krist Novoselic Nirvana's bassist for the entirety of their lifespan before the group was disbanded in 1994. Nowadays, Krist is a humanitarian and a human rights activist.

Krist is just awesome bass-guitarist. I totally love bass-lines in "StayAway", "Lounge Act", "Sliver" and more. He is funny, very intelligent and sweet man too. I love all of them, but - Krist is my chose for this time

To be honest, Krist has always been my favorite. Dave is the most talented, and Kurt is the most intelligent, but Krist made a movement for people to stop standing on escalators.

With Kurt Cobain as the frontman, Krist and Dave were underrated...
He is great with the bass, he did many memorable bass-lines as "Love Buzz", "Come as You Are", "Lithium", "Breed", "Silver"...
