i personally like nirvana but respect ur honesty
Thank you......that's all I ask. And I can understand why people like Nirvana.
Have you listened to Bleach? It's an early album of theirs. The music isn't incredibly complex, but it's a lot closer to the metal you claimed not to be able to find in them.
Caleb Neal their In Utero album was pretty heavy (well for their discography) Scentless Apprentice is probably their most metal sounding song. And Milk It
His OPINION is nothing but spewing craps out of his mouth.
But, hey, respect a looser then..
wtf is a looser? do you mean loser? at least get it right , idiot
2:59 Someone's never listened to Bleach before
Lol

Incesticide and bleach are the best albums ever.
Have you ever spilled wisky in your gear? Because i was looking at your glass the entire video and i'm panicking for some reason.
Underrated comment
No you

smells like the only nirvana song those teens know
A Muncle for your uncle, heh heh
A Muncle for your uncle the only Nirvana song I like
+MrCapone1996 Us Nirvana fans really don't like your kind. If that's the only Nirvana song you know don't talk about Nirvana. Ever. Just a word of warning.
It's not even the best song on that album. Territorial Pissings is pretty great tbh.
11DNA11 hell yeah, lounge act is my favorite off that album
“This is the closest to metal nirvana ever got” listen to negative creep or the entire bleach album for that matter than tell me smells like teen spirit is the closest to metal nirvana ever got
in utero > mtv unplugged > bleach > nevermind
Chance As if you actually think Nevermind is their worst album. Ppl like u say things like that just to go against the crowd and prove you have some deeper sense of the music. In Utero is arguably better, but both are light years ahead of Bleach
Bleach was almost like sludge metal
Yea I thought the same. Smells like teen spirit was Nirvana's attempt at a pop song. That's one of the reasons they infamously mocked the live performance. Seems an easy debate that it wouldn't even be on the top 10 of their harder songs. It seems he's surprisingly igornant of the history of their music. Then again I'd trade in all my moderate amount of nirvana knowledge for the encyclopedia this guy's got on stuff I've never even heard yet. Love Nirvana. Definitely overrated. Definitely don't care. ✌
Yes!!!! I thought the same thing even before watching the video! (Bleach was the heaviest album by Nirvana)
Great video, but "Teen Spirit is the most metal song of Nirvana" ? Did you ever heard of Paper Cuts, Territorial Pissings or Breed? They're more heavy than Teen Spirit.
Bleach
Also those are all from Nevermind, their softest album. Bleach and In Utero are both a lot more aggressive.
tourette's
Milk It is one of my favs
Scentless aprentice
I'm glad that no matter what opinions anyone has, everyone agrees that Dave Grohl is awesome.
Lol! \m/
Tyler Guffey how about krist and pat.
Mohd Faiz Hakimi Krist looks like a dad uncle guy Dave is more like a lovable uncle
I like Chad Channing better
Tyler Guffey Of course, he's the man
I respect your right to dislike nirvana just know that not everything needs to be heavily af influenced through music threory,chord changes,scales, and keys. Sometimes simple is good and relaxing :)
Lol understood \m/
Simple can be great. Look at punk, before all the real punk bands left.
Music is about the notes not played and so minimalism can be the supreme art form. I'd like to add that punk has more dimensions than the above mentioned. Blitz, Cocksparrer, Discharge, Broken Bones or The Exploited are bands I love as much if not more. My heroes though are Amebix, regarded to as Proto-Crust, with hints of Motörhead, Venom and Bathory, at the same time primitively progressive elements. Listen to the "Arise!" album and you know what I mean. That kind of music may require as much training for the listener to really get into as it does for an act like Dream Theater, whilst the latter usually put too much into a song to be enjoyable for me. If punk taught us one thing it's you don't have to master an instrument to become a great musician. It's the musical equivalent of liberalism.
people act like fucking "complex" music equals good music
music is not math. music is art
emotions, feeling, atmosphere > technique
ThreeDog as kurt said music is individual and he believed totally in musical freedom rest in peace Kurdt

"grunge wasn't a great period for music and was a low form of music." *Soundgarden?!?!?!? Alice in chains?!?!?!?!?*
A Muncle for your uncle he said That he did like some grunge songs
Christoffer Olsen I can understand how he doesn't like Nirvana, that doesn't mean the entire grunge era was shit, which is what mike heavily implies.
Thinker Mikhailov alice in chains
no love for Pearl Jam?!
Alice in chains? Meh, nothing great.
I personally love Nirvana, and hearing good reasons and arguments from other people that does not like Nirvana is pretty interesting, great video Mike!
same, I strongly agree with you. But that's Mike's thing! He's the Music Snob! xD
same
Me too
soundgarden and alice in chains? low forms of music!? what.
I mean, I can understand if they're not people's personal favorites but there's actual substance in some of their work.
Both bands have some of the most insightful, introspective and deep rooted lyrics in the last twenty five years or so. There are a fair few other bands that have those things, but AIC and Soundgarden had those kinds of lyrics every other song.
Where the love for Pearl Jam
“This song is the closest Nirvana got to metal”
Me: **cries in Negative Creep**
*cries in paper cuts and school*
*cries in Bleach*
*cries in Floyd the barber*
Uhm Tourette’s
@I come in peace I'd say negative creep has more metal influence than the rest of their discography, I'd say

I agree........unfortunately with my work schedule over the next few weeks it looks like that won't be happening for a while. I'll be lucky to get my Random Jams up soon ha.
Become The Knight 11:41 the Beatles concerts were so crazy that you cant even hear them so they stopped playing live
Kurt Cobain was so into criticizing the crap out of everything (including himself) that he was a kind of self-loathing / everything-loathing kind of guy.
And that can take a toll on a person. (Duh, it surely did).
I was unaware of that. I appreciate the insight dude \m/
@@BecomeTheKnight yea man he had huge parental problems and was passed around for years and honestly was pretty sad a lot of the time. Not to mention the extreme pain in his stomach the doctors couldnt explain which gave him that gnarly scream
Become The Knight he was shot and killed
@@krishdutta5466 nope it was suicide, get that conspiracy bullshit outta here, unless you mean that he was shot and killed by himself, then you just worded it weirdly
Yeah, he was a miserable heroin addict with a messed up back (scoliosis), messed up childhood, and maybe bipolar disorder.
I like Nirvana because of their simplicity. They have a lot of catchy songs that you can sing along to and really rock out with. I personally can't stand heavy metal and bands of that nature, but I can respect them. In terms of the best Nirvana song though, my favorite is Lounge Act, the bass line is sweet.
Cory R Yesss I agree with everything you said!!! And yea Lounge Act is the fking bestt!!
@NaPo7 what kind of heavy metal have you been listening to? Listen to Demon of The Fall by Opeth for example and tell me Nirvana is heavier
Love lounge act .. top 3 nirvana songs for me probably
I like Nirvana because it just relaxes me, there's something calming about it.
I don't see how that could be at all, but as a person who becomes relaxed from from metal, I can respect that.
Oh yeah, I get relaxed from metal too, not headbanging, but just calm stuff.
@@BecomeTheKnight yeah right, I would find it more relaxing to listen to maroon 5 and that says a lot, but I get why people like it.
@@jimmywenebuff8392 then listen to the doors

Can you react to kids react to nirvana
Nirvana is my favorite band... and I pretty much agree with a lot of things you said... not with all of them. As kurt said "most of the time they take us too seriously and they dont look at our funny side". They used to laugh about a lot of crappy things in the music industry and other stuff.
About Kurt whining about how crappy his life was, well... i dont see it that way. There is a very interesting interview called "about a son" where he talks about how "his story is not a sad one", how "it happens to a lot of people" and how "he is just a product of a spoiled america" or something like that. He also talks about how "rock is dying".
I think you should check out more Nirvana songs. More "HEAVY" songs like SCENTLESS APPRENTICE, MILK IT, FLOYD THE BARBER, or LOVE BUZZ (which I think are GREAT). That way I hope you will like Nirvana better.
I really like your videos by the way.
Young Polyyy Man You're gonna get laid in college
I agree. i wish they had Dale Crover for all of Bleach instead of just a few songs
It's... Sadly kinda true that his life has been milked into a glorified sob story by mass media. What happened to him did also keeps happening to a bunch of others.
I see it all in a very gray way... He wasn't totally right in what he said and did, but at the same time was very understandable.
Leonardo Piña Leo My fav band too. But they were kind of overrated. But Kurt did write amazing lyrics in my opinion
Don't forget Milk it
Is it just me or does anybody else wanna see kids react to GWAR
Absolutely
Nightmare Fuel my dad actually told me about GWAR the other day and they are definitely a one of kind band. Actually quite funny and insane.
Nightmare Fuel YES. I'm only 17, but I already know a lot about music, and GWAR is one of my all-time favorite bands.
I kind of want to see them react to Tool.
Let the, react to black mass in krakow
2:58 "this the closest to metal that nirvana ever got, to my knowledge"
well i guess you never heard at least 2 songs from their debut
*insert Blew*
*pretending Scentless Apprentice or Paper Cuts don't exist*
Anorexorcist: gets louder
*insert ENDLESS NAMELESS*
Nirvana is amazing... My opinion but come on
Fair enough. You love what you love.
:)
@tom nutreal Calm yourself, everyone has an opinion. Plus, he said multiple good things about them in the video. I love Nirvana btw.
I feel like Alice in Chains are the best "grunge" band. I wouldn't call them grunge, (apart from Tripod), but that's how they are classified. Layne Staley is just legendary
Not just Layne, man. AIC is Jerry. Jerry is responsible for all the music and a good chunk of the lyrics. AIC was always metal but unfortunately got bunched in with the "grunge" crowd. To this day Dirt is imho one of the darkest, honest masterpiece created.
I rank the "big 4" of grunge in this order
1. Sound garden
2. Alice in Chains
3. Pearl Jam
4. Nirvana
dude, grunge is not a spesific style of music, its more of a style of sound and location.
nirvana is more punk rock influenced
pearl jam is more clasic rock influenced
soundgarden has sort of progresive style to it
and alice in chains is more heavy metal influenced.
its not like al the grunge bands sounded the same and they just threw alice in chains in there for no reason
all of them ARE grunge, thats my entire point. did you not get that?
also i aimed the previous comment to robertgoodball, i completely respect the opinion in your comment
They are def respected by the hard rock and metal fans. Id say they are hard rock these days.
I think paper cuts sounds more like metal than smells like teen spirit
Coruja Play Yeah
Coruja Play and Floyd The Barber
Exactly. Floyd the Barber is probably my favorite song of theirs and I would definately consider it "metal". Most of the Bleach album I would consider "metal" actually.
Scentless apprentice is also kinda metal
Saying things are not metal is so metal.
Most people I know did not make a big deal about Nirvana till Kurt died. Then everybody acted like he was the greatest song writer that ever lived.
Mark S that happens with literally any musician who dies
Celery man Lol XXXTentacion (whoever the fuck that was) died and no one gives a shit XD
Celery man The fuck is this necro posting?
Well from 92 to 93 I would say otherwise. This is where the media made most grunge mega stars. That's mostly when they were most popular. In late 93 is when I started to fade until Kurt's death. That caused all the other grunge bands to take a step back and either stop or change.
Mark S I liked Nirvana since I was like 7 and one time I asked my dad if we can see them and when he told me we can’t because he isn’t alive anymore it crushed my soul.... RIP Kurt Cobain
"There's not a whole lot of dynamics" I disagree. Nirvana's trademark was their quiet-loud dynamics they copied from the Pixies, listen to any song and you'll hear how they use that
Anthony Sclafani exactly. That is not a lot of dynamics.
BRUH
Aneurysm is a good example
you roasted my favorite band, but man you're fucking on spot.
Lol well thanks. Trust me, I mean no ill will. I just speak my mind on these reaction vids. Gives me a place to vent.
Listen to Scentless Apprentice, or most of Bleach to get more metal-type sounds.
HwiteMAn in my eyes nevermind is my least favorite album. It had good songs, but for me it had too much of a pop sound. Bleach and in utero are definitely more of a metal sound, which I enjoy more out of nirvana.
Agreed. A few songs like Stay Away or Territorial Pissings are sick, but their other albums were so much better imo.
HwiteMAn i agree 100% scentless apprentice is prob their heaviest song and bleach really heavy aswell. apart from about a girl
HwiteMAn you mean punk.
I meant like heavier.
i can see why people dont like Nirvana but then you go on and say Foo Fighters is amazing???
Kinda agree. Foo Fighters seem to be one of those bands immune to criticism for some reason, like you're a complete asshole if don't like them. I respect them and I like Dave Grohl, but honestly I always thought their music was bland as hell.
It's all just opinions in the end.
AgentOfOblivion buy Dave grohl :(
Foo fighters first album was amazing then they just got boring and repetitive.
Haven't heard heard much Foo fighters but I think they're not as good as Nirvana in my opinion
"Oh, and Dave Grohl is awesome."
That fact is not an afterthought. He is a walkin, rockin example of a great person and musician
Dude I was really surprised that you made a video on Nirvana even though you don't like them. Like I said in one of your Song Suggestion Friday videos they are easily on of the best bands to ever exist in my book but that's just me. Fucking love your videos man keep up the awesome work.
All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ! That's a hard one bro but it would be between Nirvana, Metallica, and The Offspring.
All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ! And the Beatles are ok but I wouldn't pick them as the best band or my favorite I'm more into classic rock, metal, and grunge. Just rock in general dude.
All you had to do was follow the damn train CJ!
Dude Beatles are rock, dumbass
If you search on some interviews, there´s one (I think he´s on a boat) when Kurt said that 3 chords songs were done and that they wanted to do more complex songs after "In utero" album, but sadly, Kurt kissed that damn shotgun before that happens.
I had a feeling that was probably the case...
RNWO4ever is
Aww I'm personally a Nirvana fangirl but I respect your opinion! ^^
And you do make a lot of great points and criticisms! Love your channel dude!
"He's so attractive" even though he's old enough to be everyones father in this video, not to mention he's dead too
Weird music videos? So Tool?
lol yes
Joseph Choi Adam Jones (Tools Guitarist) helped with a lot of their videos due to him having lots of education in Art.
Haha
One time I showed one of my classes a few Tool music videos, and now everyone thinks i'm weird, which was my goal.
Primus?
Discovered this channel last week and it's amazing!
not really a fan of Nirvana either, but these videos are fun to watch
Thanks dude \m/
zeregaa I agree man his videos are funny and cool to watch
Your channel is freaking great man
This channel is gold
Your face when the girls said that Kurt was attractive made me laugh out loud haha
I feel like you're too obsessive about technical guitar playing and care less about every other aspect of a band.
He's into prog metal that is to be expected. Personally as a dude into metal and Punk, and is in a Punk band right now. I love technical guitar, but a good punk tune is nothing to go off on.
@@EmperorNero he is not just into prog metal. Probably knows much more than you about music
@@Nichwar19 This wasn't an insult, and yeah it's possible he does no more about music I'm a neophyte to composition still.
@@Nichwar19 I've seen your other comments, learn proper English grammar. I bet you can't even play an instrument at all or anything about music theory.
@@jamesvancam sorry teacher lol dont be this obsessed its not good for you
I love that even when you don’t like a song or a band, you still comment honestly on it and pick out things that are good as well as bad
This was a truly interesting video to watch.
I do really like Nirvana's music, and I've always connected a lot with some of the messages of hopelessness in their songs. I also appreciate the simplicity in their music, the raw aspect of it all, although I can understand how that can be a factor which makes a lot of people not really like their music that much.
Great video man! Loved to hear a different perspective on one of the Bands I love the most. Really liked the way you were honest about how you feel about Nirvana and how you view their music, while being super respectful!
Great stuff!!!
👍👍👍
Kurt was ambidextrous...played lefty guitar but wrote with his right hand, etc. I understand your points here. I respectfully disagree with quite a few though. Yes, I've always liked Nirvana, but it's not until leaving the Pacific Northwest, doubling in age and becoming a music promoter that I learned so much about Kurt (and Nirvana in general) that truly surprised me. I can honestly understand the majority of what he's singing now and have studied his lyrics, paintings, politics, etc. I realize you don't have the interest, but he truly was a genius in ways that are very rare and interesting to contemplate. His entire life was so complicated, and if you ever lived where he did and shared some of the same life circumstances, I truly think you'd think differently about him and the band. He was tired of "three chord grunge." He had many drastically different plans evolving for the future, regardless of your opinions of how he passed. I still completely respect your views, but have to agree to disagree. Thanks for an enjoyable vid! Peace....
I will concede that I have not delved deep into Cobain's work/life outside of music. And based upon his work with Nirvana (per your inference above) I have no interest to. In the future I may delve further, at very least because you took the time to explain it to me. At very most to expand my horizons further.
Thanks for dropping by and watching \m/
Can I like this twice? Perfectly put 👌
I'm the same. Even when it sounds like he's mumbling I can sort of make it out as I've listened to all the songs so many times. To the casual listener they'll be like wtf is going on. 😂
I like your voice and music taste. Totally subscribed.
Dude your voice is so deep and freaking deliciious!!!
If this is your favorite Nirvana song, you probably haven't heard much of theirs. Smells Like Teen Spirit is one of those songs that I could never hear again for the rest of my life, and I'd be ok with that. Alongside Freebird, Strairway, and Enter Sandman. That doesn't discount the effects that any of those songs have had on the music world. They're all great songs (well, Enter Sandman I have a hard time calling great), but they're only their signature songs. Not necessarily their best. I recommend "Lounge Act", "Aneurysm", "Very Ape", "On A Plain". Their aesthetic isn't clear to see if you've only heard their singles. Musically they were a hybrid of new wave melody, late 80's sludge/noise rock distortion, and punk rock velocity. Ethically, Kurt was a punk at heart. Socially aware, reckless, and an F you attitude. They stood against the musical status quo of the time, which was power ballads, over the top falsetto vocals, and playing dress up. When Nevermind knocked Michael Jaskson's Dangerous from the number one album spot, the music industry shit their pants
Bleach and Nevermind are just plain awesome albums, Knocking Smells like Teen Spirit because it's overplayed however is snobbery plain and simple - It's overplayed because it's great! Same with Enter Sandman - Of Wolf and Man, Don't Tread on Me, Sad But True are all great songs too but there's a reason Enter Sandman was the big hit!
I don't actually like Stairway to Heaven that much but I'm not a fan of Zep apart from the Immigrant Song.
Knocking Freebird is just not on - Surely EVERYONE likes that song!
Bleach was their only album that I just couldn't get into. Smells Like Teen Spirit and Enter Sandman aren't their most popular songs because of how good they are. They're as popular as they are because of their approachability by the average radio listener. Enter Sandman lacked everything that their existing fans craved, and was hugely controversial in the metal world. They traded in their technical signature sound they were known for, for a watered down radio friendly sound. It had nothing to do with overplay, it's because it's generic as far as Metallica goes. And did I really knock Smells Like Teen Spirit? Nah, I had an opinion that you disagreed with. And don't call me Shirley!
7:06 oh my god yes. Of course it does. I'm going to use rappers as an example. If Tupac and Biggie hadn't died and were still making music =, they probably wouldn't be as acclaimed as they are. Just look at Eminem, If Eminem had died after the Marshall Mathers Lp, he would be talked about as the greatest rapper that ever touched a mic, but because he is still alive and made a crap album hes gotten lower on the list of rappers that people say are the greatest of all time.It is true that the premature death of an artist causes that artist to make a bigger influence and impact, not to mention the bandwagon of new fans that only became fans after the death of the artist.
My point exactly........stick around for the official snob video \m/
But Eminem is still the best.
The same with John Lennon.
EH Miguel One bad album doesn't lower you on the list. If it did then nas wouldn't be where he's at on the list after Nastradamus. Em is still my number 1 and is on sooooo many OG hip hop legends top list. Plus he has other veterans refusing to feature him bc they don't want to be renegaded and other artists admitting they will not ever step to him.
Cliff Burton
I cracked up so much when you realized he was left handed hahahaha. Love your videos man, keep up the good work :D \m/
In the 90´s when I was 7-9 years old I was obsessed with them. then when I was 18 wish I started to be underwhelmed by their music .. Now however I have started to appreciate most of their stuff again and realised as a musician how good and solid most of their material is.
Kind of knew this is what people were gonna want. Keep up the good work Mike!
WRONG.
UNEMPLOYED, DRINK, LIVE OFF GF $$$..
Then REACT 2 another REACT VIDEOS?
LMFAO!
Yep this is the guy alright.
I don't know why but the 'husband material' part made me laugh so hard... is musician a good material for husband?
Lol! Typically no :P
Eagles Landing was heavy and the ending to Rape Me kinda was as well. Negative Creep was heavy for Nirvana. Smells Like Teen Spirit definitely wasn’t the heaviest they got though
best reaction ever "HE'S LEFT HANDED?!"
What people see in this stuff is that it made it so that love and passion for music was more important than technical ability. So when you criticize it for not being super complicated....yeah that's the point, that kids who aren't these super impressive musicians can still play music because playing music should always be about love for music first and foremost. Music = passion and having fun while playing it, not fancy abilities in the technical sense. They showed that being a little bit more stripped down can still sound good and have heart. And I say this as a 25 year old who moved to Seattle 8 months ago due to the influence of grunge.
I see what you're saying, and I get it........but......still something that rubs me the wrong way. For a few reasons. I appreciate you leaving your comment \m/
I love Nirvana but I totally respect your opinion and you make some great points that I agree with you said you've probably lost a couple hundred subs well you have earned a new sub keep making the awesome content and i'm glad to see a small UA-camr growing 'Rock on'
I appreciate that dude \m/ Welcome to the channel!
already sub because of the hair alone and stayed for the contents we need more of dude like you do reaction on ramones
I do not agree with everything you have to say but I love the commentary/discussion and well informed opinions. Just got yourself a subscriber.
I'm a huge Nirvana fan and I can definitely agree that they were overrated. but what do you not like about grunge rock in particular? (good video)
It's not the music itself, so much as what it stands for and it's impact on modern music. There are plenty of grunge songs I like (I will admit, mostly the hits); there are even Nirvana songs I like. Grunge kinda works off of this melancholic, bizzare, and well "grungy" sound that is too simplistic for my tastes. Unlike other music where you hear the feel and nuance in the simplicity, I feel like grunge has none (imho). Even the tone is kinda flat.
Again, I know it's personal taste. I greatly appreciate you watching the video and giving your feedback dude \m/
@@BecomeTheKnight a lot of soundgarden songs that are very technical in terms of guitar, and you can feel a lot of nuance in them as well.
I don't think you have to be understood to be a great lyricist. Jesse Michaels from Operation Ivy is a damn incredible writer but it was so tough to understand him
I agree. I think Kurt was a genuinely great lyricist and I don't think he was *that* hard to understand. I'm also happy to listen to unintelligible Finnish metal and tbh I have no idea if their lyrics are good.
then how do you understand the lyrics bruh?
I think Nirvana was a phenomenon of the 90s, which launched a reaction against music just prior to it (late 80s like hair bands or similar). I think the fact that I am older than you means I experienced something that you can only vicariously see after the fact. There were specials about him after he died. It was weird but it was something to see when a whole load of people (various ages) were affected.
Great video. I'm a fan of Nirvana and I'm glad you respect the fans and it was hilarious when you said Kurt looks like a 5 year old that can't sit in a chair right😂 keep making these videos man. Their great
I think Nirvana is pretty great but I get your criticism but not all of Kurt Cobain's lyric are him whining
most of nevermind lyrics is literal nonsense it is not whining
Do you like Alice In Chains?
Jayce Wilkinson that is an interesting question, Alice in Chains is the shit the only one of the grunge bands that could actually do good solos
Jayce Wilkinson yeah I would like to hear his thoughts on them personally they are my favorite grunge band
I really don't consider AIC a grunge band. They just got lumped into the grunge label because they came out in Seattle in the early 90's. They're a straight up hard rock band in my opinion.
Jayce Wilkinson I see them more as Metal than Grunge
FScorpion678 yes I think they were more closely related to metal but they were still apart of the grunge movement
Nirvana is the reason why I listen to and adore rock music. I've evolved from nirvana being my favorite band but they will always have a special place in my heart
I am a fan of Nirvana and not a Musician. I appreciate your opinion, the fact that you can understand the "For the music" and their attempt at playing genuine rock music.
I have no problem with you and I sub'd, thank you for being as unbiased as you are.
Alice In Chains, soundgarden, stone temple pilots, Pearl Jam all better grunge bands
It’s tough to say that they were better, nirvana were the best at what they were doing, catchy song and with a great drummer but I do understand your point of view
I think Alice In Chains, Soundgarden, and Nirvana are in their own league when it comes to ‘grunge’. Never liked Pearl Jam, Eddie Vedder’s voice bores me to death, but STP are pretty good.
This is a clear example why I watch your reaction videos to hear you whinge about bands or singers I find some enjoyment out of it it's quite funny hearing you whinge
Bitcherino Nicherino yeah hearing his whiny opinions r funny but also kind of annoying since he thinks his opinion is right I agree with some things he says but other times XD SMH
saying that these music genres (grunge, etc) are ´low forms of music´ kinda pisses me off haha, but yeah still his opinion.
First time I watch his youtube..
And let me say..
LAST TIME FOR SURE.
Nirvana was the DEFINING MOMENT IN ROCK HISTORY.
Just look @ Dave Grohl SUCCESS after Nirvana?
This guy OPINION should be lock up in mental nutcase imo.
Holy shit another pocketeer in a completely un related Channel, never thought I’d see the day
Even in some songs when I don't know all the lyrics, I'm still foot tapping and jamming out. Love em, miss Kurt.
Hehe honestly I love the rocking back and for between 2 chords. "Blown Away" by the Pixies is a nice example for that
Sentless apprentice I believe is the closes to metal nirvana got idk maybe I’m just high just my opinion
pen cap chew
kids just reacted to nirvana
Hi Mike. I watch your channel all the time. Im a fan. I like Nirvana because to me, it’s like therapy. Kurt has a surprisingly calming voice to me. You have a different opinion and I respect the hell out of that, that’s why it’s my opinion. I’m just say why I like Nirvana. As I Nirvana fan, rock on. As a fan, rock on. Have a nice day.
Me being a huge Nirvana fan, i see where you're coming from. A lot of my friends dont like nirvana and for the same reasons that you have. And i can also say that, that reason is legitimate.
Hey man I know this is late but you should try listening to some of the heavier nirvana stuff like milk it, blew and negative creep
You just know Mike has barely ever listened to Nirvana when Smells like teen spirit is his favorite Nirvana song
Great video, I like how you manage to be slightly brutal yet still respectful. SLTS is not their heaviest song, I'd definately recommend listening to 'Scentless Apprentice' the second track off In Utero if you haven't already. It's kind of a generic hard rock riff but it's got something more that their most popular songs (lithium, in bloom etc) are lacking. It's definitely more
raw and chaotic.
As much as I usually disagree with your opinions on bands/artists, i still love your reactions and how you respect them still even if you don’t like their music. Your reaction videos are hilarious!
The thumbnail makes him looks like that he shaved his head
i think volbeat are a great mediator in rock and metal
Just subscribed,you have very valid views on Music and i respect that^^
I personally love Kurt and Nirvana, personally one of my favorite bands next to the Beatles. I really respect your honesty though! Subscribed, good job.
i do love nirvana, but i do agree with many of your statements
They were feminist when being a feminist was a good thing and they fought for equality
Then Kurt seen how crazy some groups were if you didn't agree with everything lol they even fell out with him for a while I read because they thought he was a different person when he got big but he wasn't. He literally wore dresses just to piss off folk just because he could.
This guy is really smart he seems like he’s really honest and not afraid to share his opinion
mike! there are a ton of stuff that are heavier in the nirvana catalog than smells like teen spirit,
for example: "school", "aneurysm", "territorial pissings" and a lot more, and their debut album "bleach" is practically heavy metal
anyhow, love your chanell
Bro smells like teen spirit is the least metal nirvana song
Elders or Adults react to LAMB OF GOD
You are at the wrong place man. :D
I really like Nirvana but i totally respect your opinion and your thoughts
its kinda funny, i found your channel through nirvana and your respect/ differing views are what made me stay, also for song suggestion friday, Scentless Apprentice, Nirvana. its a bit more heavy/ noisy and has some cool things in the song, not my favorite but definitely different from their other stuff. Good luck with the channel, i can see it going places
I agree with you..I think a premature death puts people on a pedestal.
I disagree. No one talks about one of the people he mentioned (to the point that 20 minutes after finishing the video I can't remember who it was), Jimi Hendrix sucks, and Aaliyah, Prince, and plenty of others did not gain any musical success due to a death.
Not all but some.
Do you actually like Smells like Teen spirit more than their cover of Where did you sleep last night? o.o
Try:
Negative Creep
Scentless Apprentice
Tourette's
Bloom
or milk it territorial pissings and lounge act? but the latter is a bit of a strain
I think I like nirvana bc of the simple writing. Helped me get into playing guitar in general bc I could play along.
The reason why I still have a fair amount of emotional attachment to nirvana is that sliver was the frist bass line I was teached by a dear friend of mine.
That song stilt gets me every time.
Dang, I feel exactly the same way about Nirvana.
nirvana has good music - no doubt about that. but it just isn't our thing. i'd rather listen to them than any of the new popular shit going on lately. that doesn't mean i'd just listen to them 'cause i can.
I can agree with that for the most part.
"....of what I don't like about....He's left handed?!" 😂
You are one of the more insightful musical channels. I enjoy the enlightening discussion about the parts of music broken down into it's important elements. That being said, I am a former 90s kid who does like Nirvana (though I like Pearl Jam and Metallica more) . What are your thoughts on the song In Bloom?
