>"It was inevitable that the alternative movement would attract bandwagoners. I don't know about Soundgarden, we've hung out with them before and they seem like great guys, but then you have other bands like Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam that are obvious corporate puppets. Many of these guys were involved in the hairspray/cockrock scene for years and now they quit washing their hair, fly up to Seattle, and act as if they've lived here their entire lives. It's very offensive to me."Was he right?
>>131622138Conveniently forgetting he had a cock rock/glam phase himself.
>>131622138Pearl Jam and Alice in Chains were already making stuff before grunge blew up. Bandwagoners would be more like STP or Candlebox
>>131622234uh wut? more on this, pls?
>>131622138>bandwagonersThis shit gets so old. I'm sure Kurt had NO influences that leaked their way into his music. He was only 100% original all the time....Only when his group became someone else's influence, he shits on them.Glad Courtney brained him
>>131622284Stp and candlebox also were making music before grunge blew up. Its almost like a 70s revival punk movement was inevitable
>>131622284Thats what he meant, they were making buttrock funk metal garbage and changed their style when Kurt got famous
>>131622284Wasn’t Pearl Jam literally assembled by studio execs? Like an actual corporate created band?>>131622829Kurt really was a retard fag who caught lightning in a bottle. I legitimately hate him. I actually think his music is ok, I just think he’s a twat and I’m glad he’s dead. I can’t imagine how hard he would be crying about orange man.
Notice how all the other grunge bands were friends with each other except nirvana because Kurt was a douche
>>131622138imitation is the greatest form of flattery, kurt
>>131622852>buttrock funk metal garbage? Ten and Facelift came out before Nevermind and neither sound like that>>131622906>Wasn’t Pearl Jam literally assembled by studio execs?From what i know they were made by the half of Green River (OG underground grunge band) who wanted to make more accessible music, while the rawer more punk half formed Mudhoney
>>131622234Post proof.
>>131622138dude used to be total mainstream, and only went grunge to try to impress alpha buzz.
Kurt's a douche and Nirvana is just okay.
>>131622138Literally all of PJ besides Eddie is from seattle or atleast WA. As for AiC it saddens me he could hear their music and shit on it when Layne was a force of nature, Kurt wrote pop music more than any of them. Everytime Kurt says shit like this i like to think of Buzz Osbourne telling him to check himself
>>131622906>by studio execs >being this ignorantNever heard of motherlove Bone? Or Green River? These 2 bands were foundational to Seattle's scene and almost all of PJ members come from them. Nirvana was the outsider, Soundgarden knew many of PJs members and Cornell performed with them on Temple of the Dog
>>131623865aic sucks
>>131622284Pearl Jam have a few decent tunes, but they (mainly Vedder) were always lame AF, posers.
>>131623933Truth nuke.
>>131623933no u
>>131625390They're far from the worst band, they are all talented but they just don't have the songs, drives me nuts when plebbit hypes them up over Nirvana, Nirvana has the same number of BAD songs as AIC has good ones.
kurt hung out with layne and jerry and did drugs he said this before he met them
>>131622138just listened to a snippet of alice in chains first album and this sounds nothing like cockrock
>>131626135The infamous Rock 'n Rio show was a result of Kurt and Layne up all day and night before doing speedballs
>>131622138Why was he such a prick?
>>131622138He should've told that to his whore wife
>>131623136it literally does thoughhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N5_lDkHOEMw (funk metal)https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CcROfydOQv4 (funk buttrock)
>>131623933>>131625390YOU SHUT YOUR WHORE MOUTHS
>>131626566OH NONONONONO AICSISTERS...
>>131622138He's not wrong, AIC is more a heavy metal band, not grunge. At the end of the day no one cares about this scene drama and narratives, the tunes are what stand the test of time and AIC mogged in that department.
>>131622138>It was inevitable that the alternative movement would attract bandwagoners.Yes, such as Turdvana and Kurt, the industry plant who flopped hard (couldn't even outsell Garth Brooks or Color Me Badd, lmao).
