So I was driving a bunch of co-workers to lunch in good ole Perth Amboy, NJ...the god-awful worst piece of real estate known to man. The conversation came to the state of the current "popular" music scene. The conversation soon turned negative when we were trying to tap the next band to grab hold of the establishment and make some good, new, fresh manual music.
There are a lack of bands turning heads....especially my head. Radiohead? Yes. I'd take Johnny Greenwood making noise with a hair dryer anyday then listen to some asian guy spinning some records...
So anyway....conversation soon came to Nirvana. I popped in In Utero and realized again what a brilliant record it is. Cobain made angst credible because it was real angst. Sadly, it was his suicide that made it even more credible....but just listen to his lyrics and the catchy riffs...the pounding Grohl drums.
Forever upset at such foolishness,
CK
