I seriously do not think Nirvana is grunge.
I seriously do not think Nirvana is grunge.
We're a global band. In 1995, we played 42 countries. So when America did that trend, when grunge came in, we didn't change to be that. We stayed true to who we were, played the world and continued to grow.
As far as the grunge thing, there are three bands from Seattle that I would call true grunge.
Yes, I would say my comedy is grunge, evidenced by the fact my jokes have put an end to big-hair glam comedy.
Best two rock voices I've heard in a last few years both have been from grunge bands: it's Eddie Vedder and the other one is Chris Cornell from Soundgarden.

The Melvins are grunge.
It's all magic to me. Country to punk rock, all of it. Chopin to Kurt Cobain. But it always all comes back to punk for me, because that was the last time, punk rock or grunge rock, was the last time that passion ruled the airwaves.
