if you don't like punk based music that's fine but drop this pretentious "i know what bands are real/fake" and "my opinion about a musicians talent is 'right' and yours is "wrong'" nonsense



Punk music?

My comments were about grunge, and the critiques were about the genre itself.

Grunge is a subgenre of punk concocted out of thin air by Sub Pop. It's just a cross between metal and punk, and the Seattle bands all came up through the punk scene.

I think Cobain's later career would've looked like Mark Lanegan or Evan Dando's. Either a series of acclaimed but small albums that are essentially folk records or a disappearances/reapparance with the comeback album being surprisingly good.

Maybe not as successful but he would have probably made more profound/interesting art. I mean he's already accomplished that.
