Re: And the winner is...........
OK Computer, Achtung Baby, The Bends, Nevermind...I think pound for pound are the best albums of the decade.
Definately Achtung Baby and The Bends. I loved Wish by the Cure as well. I think Pearl Jam's Ten is much better than Nevermind, though I'm not gonna argue the influence of the two cause we all know which one wins that.
Re: And the winner is...........
I do agree Nirvana didn't get a fair shake. Hell, I think In Utero is their opus, not Nevermind.
Both of those albums were taken to the broom closet in seconds. There's definitely a hardcore hatred for those guys, out of spite, in the hard rock crowd.

Re: And the winner is...........
I don't hate nirvana, and it's not spite for me but I do think they're overrated. For some of us, I think it's reactionary to the massive following they got after kurt's death. All of a sudden he was being painted as Jesus.
I think nirvana was a good band, with music that's both exciting, and at times interesting psychologically, and that made kurt a talented songwriter and peformer. But nothing more and nothing less. He didn't suck, but he didn't invent music either.
