"Although I listened to Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin, and I really did enjoy some of the melodies they'd written, it took me so many years to realize that a lot of it had to do with sexism. The way that they just wrote about their dicks and having sex. I was just starting to understand what really was pissing me off so much those last couple years of high school. And then punk rock was exposed and then it all came together. It just fit together like a puzzle. It expressed the way I felt socially and politically. Just everything. You know. It was the anger that I felt. The alienation." –Blank on Blank, 1993
Nirvana was a great band. They were the breakout band for grunge, and alternative rock. They were a band for seven short years, yet they made a long lasting impact on music. They continue to inspire artists today. They weren’t looking for fame they were just making music and doing what they loved.
