What's there to say about a band that has supplied me with countless favorite songs and more than my fair share of entertainment. All I can think of saying is thank you. So Thank you Chris, Thank you Kurt, and Thank you Dave for being a couple of guys who make great music

No, I am not joking. Yes, I understand they 'changed' rock music in the 90's and how many bands they influenced. But they're just another bland rock band to me. Nothing special.

Grunge..

..despite that, I actually like a lot of the songs.

Not dissing Nirvana at all, but if anyone here thinks they're the end-all-be-all of the Seattle music scene in the early 90's, give Alice in Chains a shot.

They were able to change the face of rock because they were the most radio friendly and catchy. You couldn't put a song like Dirt (AIC) on the air because it's not readily accessible. With most of Nirvana's tunes even if it had heavy lyrical meaning, it was masked it 4/4 punk-style grunge which many people could bob their head to. Overall I think they're overrated, and the other grunge scene bands need a little more credit.

Alice in Chains was definitely better than Nirvana..
But Nirvana has their good songs, not extremely talented or anything just catchy and what not.
The band was overrated and AIC was underrated.

Nirvana rocks my socks.
They changed rock genre for sure.
I don't know how people can't see that.

They're simlpy amazing.

If you think AIC is underrated, take it to their page. That has nothing to do with how good Nirvana was and is.
They're one of the few bands that can be classified as having changed rock 'n' roll permanently. We've yet to see the genius artists that can come from being influenced by Nirvana. I don't think there's been many, if any, good bands around since that have been heavily influenced by grunge.
And "Dirt" is played on radio. Maybe not as much as Nirvana, but it is played on radio.
I think if you measure a band's greatness by how much radio play they get, you're going to end up fucked over.

I can't help feeling that this is one of the most boring bands to listen to of all time.

And your grammar skills would clearly give you credibility making that statement.

Question is nirvana under or overrated? A little of both I believe, while I will respect what they did, it was kind of like watching The Doors career in fast foreward and taking the booze away from Morrison(played by Cobain of course) and replace it with acid and pez dispensers and left handed fenders in short I doubt anyone really truely understands this band as much as they say they do especially younger generations to come who "feel they can relate to these timeless tunes" Unless you went from being a bum looking for the next high to a platinum artist and still felt like that bum, I doubt you'd understand this band, and Novoselic and Love are still fighting over a dead man's legacy GET A FUCKING MOVE ON WITH YOUR LIFE LIKE GROHL!

A rather beast band if I do say so myself. Top stuff, as it were. Who am I kidding? Nirvana has the greatest replay value of any band i'm constantly going back to them. Awesome band, awesome music.
