I am assuming that you may mean more than just my taste in music. :lol:

But in the context of this discussion about Nirvana, it does. As I said, I like Nirvana, and their music, a lot. I don't know if I'd say I'm a "big fan" but I do like them enough where I'll listen to their music on my own volition, not if it just comes on the radio or something like that (Bruce Springsteen is an example of someone whose music I can enjoy but I'll only listen to when he comes onto the radio, but I'd never go out of my way to intentionally rock out to Bruce). I know from talking to people who were in HS during that era about what Nirvana meant to them, but I didn't get to see firsthand so it's hard for me to appreciate that aspect of their music.

trying not to completely derail this thread, but there are 2 bands in the history of rock that basically drew a line in the sand.

rock music before them sounded one way.
rock music after them sounded completely different.

the first was the Beatles.
the other was Nirvana.

music ebbed and flowed until the Beatles just turned the industry upside down and changed it completely.

after them, music again kinda ebbed and flowed gradually shifting.

then Smell Like Teen Spirit came in MTV.
it was such a drastic shift and almost immediately made everything before it obsolete.

even as a freshman or so in High School i knew that was just different

Nirvana's "Rape Me" and "Breed" are my favorites. However, that early-mid 90s grunge crap was meh.

Interesting, @BB73 told me the same thing about classical music.

There were 2 composers in the history of orchestral music that basically drew a line in the sand.

The first was Beethoven
The other was Richard Wagner

And even though he was just in high school when the Ring Cycle premiered in Munich, he just knew that it was something completely different.

not joking, but Wagner’s “Ride of the Valkyries “ was my walk up song for High School Baseball

Yeah, but then Tchaikovsky came along and blew them both away.

Breed is also my favorite Nirvana.
I'm going to disagree on the last sentence as (for me) Alice In Chains is the pinnacle of that era with Facelift and Dirt driving the bus. Absolutely fantastic, amazing albums.
