> How so? In many ways it reminds me of how Nine Inch Nails reinvented him/themselves during the same period. The nihilism became the focus of the music (as you say later) but without actually trying to say something meaningful. I obviously don't have any Nirvana records anymore (I sold them all to buy Danzig stuff) so I can't do a line-by-line analysis, but when I came to the decision to dump them, that's the impression I had.
It really seemed to me (at the time) that they were catering to the less attractive passions of teenagers of the time, without actually having a message. Nothing has really changed that idea... > About the Soundgarden bit. Are you saying that they > are a band of more > substance than Nirvana? Or do you simply like them > more? Both. Infact, I think Soundgarden was the best band to come from the Big 4 of the "Seattle" music scene from the time (the others being Pearl Jam, Nirvana, and Alice in CHains; IIRC Queensryche, being from Seattle, doesn't count because they came earlier...)
