Everything Nirvana did on nevermind was already done on Doolittle, but they just reaped the benefits because they came in at the right time. |
I thought so, still, your comment sounded as if Nevermind is really that awful, when its the other way around...
I agree about Butch Vig, thanks goodness they have found Albini
And good that we have live albums
Many fans discovered Pixies through Nirvana, like me. Kurt was very open about his influences (or whom he wanted to rip off
). I think both bands have similar atmosphere/ feel to them, but they both have also easily distinguishable, unique sound. Nirvana did something similar to what Pixies tried before and were successful, thats all. Frank wouldnt want so much fame anyway, and so didnt Kurt.
Is it really better than Nevermind?
this is a good album
