Nirvana vs. Foo Fighters

I prefer the Foo Fighters. I listened to Nirvana so much back in my teen years that I can hardly stand them now - Drain You and Polly are good songs though.

Nirvana...

While I enjoy both I will always like Nirvana more.

Dunno why, but never been a fan of the foo fighters. And the name makes me uncomfortable for some reason. Nirvana's great! Even though some of the lyrics are more random-seeming, or 'up to interpretation.' Kurt did pave the way for grunge, so i think that's what merits his fame despite some of his, er, 'confusing' (?) content. That and the fact that he died young and in a terrible way.

Nirvana for me. There are only one or two Foo Fighters songs that I think measure up to the best Nirvana stuff. Nirvana were also pioneers which counts for a lot in my opinion.

Nirvana, they made actual content. Yeah I said that.

Nirvana. Even though I never really listen to them anymore. Meant a lot to me at a younger age.

Dave does have a good voice though.

I listen to Foos more, but Nirvana matters more.

Grew up listening to Nirvana, but gotta say Foo Fighters on this one, despite the release of Sonic Highways.
