oops sorry! what I meant to say is how can an album be overrated? if so many people bought an album, they must have liked it, so it was a success, which is what the bands want right?

well obviously not kurt cobain, according to his suicide note, well a band like that shud want success to a certain extent.
success dosnt exactly translate into good. what i think they mean when they say that nevermind is overrated, is that kurt died, he was famous, every1 was like boo hoo oh no kurt kobain died what will we do? well we will make kurt look like a rock n roll genius because he shot himself! THATS A BRILLIANT IDEA!! so they think to themselves what are nirvanas 2 most commercial songs?... hmmm IVE GOT IT, 'smells like teen spirit' an 'lithium' so heres what we will do, OK since 'smells like teen...' is a catchier song than lithium we will market it to death an play it to death, an with lithium itl be the song that will create 'real fans' of nirvana.. SO that every1 who dosnt even like nirvana that much will be like.. hang on these songs arnt too bad.. what album are they on?? OH nevermind! lets buy, then every1 in the 15-20 somthing age group buys it, therefore nevermind becomes the ''era defining'' album for 'generation X' an every1 thinks that it is one of the deadliest album of all time, EVEN though alot of ppl are yet to hear the other songs on the album...

well everyone has a different idea of what good music is, all that really matters is if you like to listen to something, no sense over-analyzing it...

I was listenin to Bleach last night,such a good album..But I do like all the albums...Nevermind is deff the more popular album and all...I guess cause of it's more polished sound,made it more accessible to more people. Smells Like Teen Spirit...deadly song....but over played.....listen to it once every few months and then it's good.....
