"the idea of a hopeful, democratic country had practically been dismantled.."

Typical bumper sticker mentality from the far left.

That’s funny since Nirvana wasn’t a political band. And many who followed Nirvana while on SubPop during the early grunge era knows full well that Nirvana completely changed their sound to market to a broader market. I have played Bleach (Nirvana’s first album) to many who claim they are Nirvana fans and had no idea who they were listening too. Punk was alive and well way before Nirvana. Stipe is a fool and has no idea what he is talking about.

So Bill Clinton was elected, ushering in a new era of hope, and Kurt Cobain promptly killed himself.

Bizarre article. How could Nirvana steal the show? The dude is dead.

And, the speech by Stipe is bogus. Cobain was not political in that manner at all.

The two survivors, with their riches and success are now cogs in the liberal National Socialist machine.

Stipe is insane and projecting his deepest perverted fantasies as historical fact.

They spoke truth, and a lot of people listened. They were singular and loud and melodic and deeply original.

Quick! Name one Nirvana song other than Smells Like Teen Armpits.

Sorry. Time's up.

Yes, that was the voice of the Beavis and Butthead generation.

And to think these people get to vote.

Hopefully they're engaging in sexual practices that preclude them from having children.

I am surprised that Stipe has not died of aids by now.

There was a guy named Everman that was kicked out of Nirvana.He joined the army and made Rangers then Special Ops. He was one of the first guys in Afghanistan after 9/11. Google Evermans War. It was a great read from the NYtimes.

I have two of Nirvana’s CD’s and when listening to them I’ve never once thought of Reagan.

The collective intelligence of the group, the cultural and political awareness, understanding of the forces that drove history, or the ones propelling us into a bleak future, don’t rate high enough to measure, much less credit as a moving force. ...But I like some of their music, and I’m glad they played it, and I was sad to see Kurt Cobain destroy himself at such a young age.

Stipe is and always has been a radical leftie. Never showers. Stinks like crazy. But early R.E.M. (Green and before) was just outstanding music. So radically different from everything out at that time in the early-mid 80’s.

“Nirvana were kicking against the system to show a sweet and beautiful, but fed-up fury coupled with howling vulnerability. “

Non thinking, Marxist, big government fools. Screw them all.
Reagan’s vision and actions helped restore TRUE power to the people and firmly embraced the power of the individual OVER the power of a controlling over bearing, mind controlling big government.
Again; screw these lefty Reagan hating shallow thinking leftist creeps.
I have had enough of their mindless drivel.
Time to stand up to them and call them out for their vapid BS.
