They became legends after the death of Cobain... while they were still popular while he was alive... no way that would have made the mark they have now if the man didn't off himself. Took balls, though. Shotguns are messy.

actually, i'm not some devout worshiper of Cobain, i only really like Nevermind, but that song ( can't remember it's name ) was really good. it would have been interesting. i think they would have done something like pearl jam, hit and miss records...and Nirvana was popular before he offed himself. granted, they would not have become legends if he didn't but i doubt their popularity grew after his suicide, pleanty of singers kill themselves and they don't become more popular just because of that...
