I agree, he changed music in the 90s. We can thank him for single-handedly ending 80s hair metal.

METALLICA killed 80s hair metal, not Nirvana. Nirvana had nothing to do with metal. Grunge petered out in a short few years, and gave us bands like Creed and Nickelback.
And all that is just talking about children's pop music. It has nothing to do with REAL music, music for adults, which was completely unaffected by grunge or metal.

He can thank bands like “The Pixies” for changing the music of the 80’s. He stood on the shoulders of giants.
