Caltrops - No Stairway to Heaven





	[quote name="Fullofkittens"][quote name="Bill Dungsroman"][quote name="Entropy Stew"][quote name="Fullofkittens"]Weezer is going to remembered as the best guitar pop band of the 90s. I'm going to just come out and say it: the first two Weezer albums are better than the best two Nirvana albums. They stand up better. In ten years "Holiday" is still going to be rocking kids out when "Heart-Shaped Box" is going to be provoking barely-interested nods. [/quote] I was going to refute this, but then I realized that I still listen to and love Weezer, whereas Nirvana is skipped 99% of the time. -/ES/- <small>Kurt should be awarded a few points of handicap due to being overplayed to DEATH in PERPETUITY</small>[/quote] <I>At release time</I> and for a few years hence, little can equal or best Nirvana's first two full-length albums (really, their only two). Weezer stands up to the test of time, for the reasons you mention primarily, and it's easier to play music as time goes on that isn't squarely entrenched in the angsty wasteland of 90s alt-rock (much less its arguable progenitor). Weezer's peppy! Weezer's fun! The news that their newest sucks depresses me greatly. Still, Nirvana's Unplugged CD is awesome, and continues to remain awesome.[/quote] How does Nirvana only have 2 full-length albums? I'm trying figure out what you meant by that. I actually have never listened to the Unplugged album, I gave up on Nirvana after they sold out and got popular (sniff!).... which is hilarious in retrospect, because listening to <i>In Utero</i> now, it's almost impossible to believe that literally everyone I knew owned that record and "Rape Me" was a popular song that people were playing in their secondary instrument classes in school. It might be the least commercial blockbuster record ever. [/quote]
