listening to the radio this afternoon and they played this song that rips off Nirvana fuckin HARDCORE. Has to take the crown from the Vines as "#1 Kurt Cobain Biter". I didn't catch the bands name though. The chorus says something about "back to the remedy".

just looked it up and that is it. Serously, listen to this song. Its like a bad Nirvana parody. and the lead singer from Seether is the guy banging that chick from Evanascence. Who'd athunk it? All it takes to bone a Hot Topic chick is doing a bad Kurt Cobain impression.

"back to the remedy" is a line from the song "Remedy" on seethers new album. IMO they dont really sound like Nirvana though. Maybe its something else. :/

edit: 5 seconds too late. :p

Scott Stapp tried to sound like Kurt Cobain.... but failed miserably.

What? I thought he tried to sound like Vedder or Weiland...

And yeah, that punk from Puddle of Mudd came to mind immediately. I cringe every time I hear him.

Is Seether the other band fronted by the ...uh..."singer" from slipknot, or am I thinking of something else?

You're waaaaay off base. You're thinking of Stone Sour. Seether is a shitty band.

Pearl Jam is the best band to come out of that group of bands from Washington. Honestly, their music has aged much better.

Definately true, great music without the hype.
And by the way can anyone really say silverchair is a nirvanna wannabe? or daniel johns a kurt cobain one? definately need to listen to their newer stuff. It might be just me but i can't imagine cobain doing a project like the dissociatives.

Nirvana had no hype, their music was great before th kiddies caught on. They even recorded in utero to sound like shit to piss these same kids off. Alice just couldnt get a break because STP, Soundgarden, Melvins, Screaming Trees, Jesus Lizzard and Mudhoney did it all better. Hoary old rock band. Thats my opinion anyway.

As for johns, he started out using the kurt image and sound to get popular and then changed directions later. His, and silverchairs recent stuff sounds nothing like nirvana.

Who said Creed sounded like Nirvana? Do you have something called ears?


Creed is a wannabe Pearl Jam


Puddle of Mudd is a wannabe Nirvana.


Even someone half deaf can tell the difference.

First thing I thought when i heard the Seether song is "Damn these guys would make a badass nirvana cover band"

The guy sounds exactly like Kurt.
