Speaking of which, these people you're referring to, I imagine that Nevermind is the only Nirvana album they listen to? What do they think of a song like "Territorial Pissings"? or "Breed"? I guess they wouldn't even approach a song like "Tourette's" or "Scentless Apprentice". The "noisiness" of a band like AIC shies in comparison.
Ah, the myth of Kurt! And the best thing to ever happen to Courtney Love's music career! Yeah, and they were still selling Nirvana posters in Wal-Mart in 1997. No wonder he killed himself.
Pop, pop and never stop. I join you in a hearty guffaw. Or chortle, whichever you prefer.

I`ve never asked which Nirvana album they like, but undoubtedly we are probably talikng about "Nevermind" here and essentially the singles that came off it and eventually after excessive airplay and all the commotion were brainwashed into their minds. Songs like "Territorial Pissings" etc would most likely be songs that they would conveniently ignore. An album like "In Utero" would be totally inaccesable to them! So yer we are talking the singles here.
