All I hear is Eric Cartman after that comment.

I do agree that the band members were all saying WTF when he started singing. Some in awe, others on the verge of laughter.

Sounds like the original


People who were maladjusted teens in the 90's and looking back with nostalgia glasses think Nirvana was talented. They were actually kind of shite.

I imagine in 20 years or so a bunch of 30-40 year olds will complain that new music isn't as sophisticated as classic Billie Eilish.

This is what happens when someone who is only mildly talented to begin with tries to emulate a very unique talent.


Woof.

watch PUM singer sing it; then watch Kurt Cobain sing it. You will see the problem.

frick those guys. They were supposed to open up for Godsmack and Deftones in New Orleans back in 2001 or so, but blew off the concert to go be on TRL with Carson Daly.

That's a fairly difficult song to cover for a lead vocalist.

Wes Scanlin has been a trainwreck for years. He should have not tried to sing like Kurt Cobain and just sang it with his natural voice. It's dangerous to cover certain bands music. Nirvana would be one of them.

You've lost all credibility. You're saying Clapton's Unplugged album is trash? AIC was good as well.

As a public service announcement so people don't waste their money catching a Puddle of Mud show.

Was that a spoof? It sounded like the guy was trying to go to the bathroom. Man that was bad.


It's so bad that my first thought is he's mad at Kurt Cobain (even though Cobain has been dead for over 20 years) and was taking it out on Cobain's song in an attempt at a mean-spirited parody.

I would have taken that video and burned it and then sworn everyone to secrecy that it never happened. It's that bad.

No argument, but this was when they first hit the scene with that one song.

I bet you were already headed to Sonic Deftones is the shite

ETA: PoM really did just have one or two songs that they played on 94.5 (Home of Houston's alternative rock), but the lead singer was a total shitshow soon after...drunk as shite during concerts, getting in fights with fans in the front row. They dropped off HARD
