Was there a more pretentious rocker than Kurt Cobain?

I think not. The guy took an average band and made them famous by being pretentious.
Then he killed himself and the band really took off.

I wonder if this was discussed back in 1994? WGAF

Well, the band became what he despised. It’s not unusual. People that are critical of something often commit the same acts soon after in the real world, myself included. Not unusual for celebrities either. Howard Stern is a prime example.

A certain other band member is probably more famous now with his new band...

Pearl Jam is better than Nirvana.

Is this a bad troll thread you meant to start on the music board?

John Lennon maybe

More the case that others, critics and Courtney Love and to a lesser extent Dave Growler created that pretentiousness more than Cobain who was fukked up most of the time.
Foo Fighters are a good band, but Grohl, et al gets a lot of adulation that he does not deserve

Do you even Jimmy Morrison bro? Except he was a great talent just not a good human

Kurt wasn’t even the most pretentious rocker in Nirvana, much less all of rock n roll.

I remember being a teen and being so sad he died. He was so talented. It was so tragic how hopeless he was. His music was an collection of depression and drugs. I never knew hope until I knew Jesus.

He was pretentious and a hypocrite. It’s well known that he didn’t like Tool, there’s even an MTV video of him mad because of Sober’s supposed rip-off of the Brothers Quay . (It was definitely influenced.) However Nirvana ripped-off the Pixies and Dave Grohl even admitted it.

Know how I know you weren't alive in the early 90s?

How was he pretentious?
I've always thought of him as kinda the opposite. Nirvana's music was generally very simple, raw and full of angst. And catchy.

Black Francis (Frank Black) sure seems to be the biggest count of all....especially given the moderate stardom that the pixies had. His god complex is monumental and annoying.
