Top 10 Evidences that Nirvana Didn't Create Grunge
Some people actually believe that Nirvana created Grunge music, it's a big and rather false misconception.Why the hell was it changed to evidences? That's not even a word...
So in all honesty Green River created Grunge not Nirvana.
I bet most Nirvana fans never heard of Green River.
And he's completely right...
Drain You, Territorial Pissings, Endless, Nameless, and Stay Away are exceptions but that's it. Come As You Are, Polly, In Bloom, Lithium, Something in the Way, and Smells Like Teen Spirit are poppy radio friendly Rock songs.
You do realize that you named 6 so called "poppy" songs and 5 hard ones. Even so, Come as you are and SLTS are DEFINITELY defining traits of the grunge genre. Stop spamming pointless lists
In Utero and Bleach are more grungy.
If you want to say Nirvana popularized Grunge, then you'd be right. But they didn't create anything.
By that logic Metallica's Master of Puppets created Thrash Metal, because it was a popular album. Popular albums DO NOT create genres.
The only thing they were influential for is maybe Post- Grunge acts like Seether that's about it really.
Their techniques were already done by acts such as: The Pixies, Melvins, and more. So they didn't create anything.
Making Soundgarden more influential than Nirvana in the Grunge Four.
Not the biggest reason but still worth mentioning.
And not to mention false to.
