Finally found out why I like Nirvana. Dave Grohl stole from black drummers.

Who Travis Barker rip off knew these peckerwoods didn't have enough soul to play a percussion instrument

And you can’t be serious telling me hes not paying homage when he clearly credited the gap band for his influence.. Stealing is when you dont give credit

They were not credited on the album and did not receive any money for it. No check was cut. Coming out 30 years later to tell the world you copied an artist isn't paying homage or giving credit. Don't play stupid breh.

There was this huge bootleg disc set back in the day from nirvana I think it was called outcestide, y’all should download that has the best of their live and bootleg joints

Nirvana bootleg recordings - Wikipedia

Favorite bootleg is From The Muddy Banks of The Wiskah

How does this dude Pharrell still look 28 at 50

Skincare. Moisturizing and exfoliating

 

[Eastside Get The Money]

None of his drumming is all that spectacular in Nirvana. Thats not a diss to him, it just wasn’t written that way.

There was nothing in rock like smells like teen spirit drums.

B - Bass drum
S - Snare
4/4 open hi hat with crash in the 4th

BB-S/S-B-S-BB-S on the chorus

And his fills were great throughout never mind and in utero

Probably because Kurt openly shat on Nevermind and the mixing, and all the attention the album got.

I think people choose In Utero so they don't sound like a poser, and to look like a "Real Fan".

Pretty much this. Nevermind was pretty much connected to the “corporate sell out” image of nirvana. While In Utero was seen as the “real music fans” album. But I love Nevermind. If you borrow and rip off the correct way, and it sounds great, than idc. I’ll still like it. Lol. Nevermind was such a perfect album. It’s crazy how I never made the connection before between Grohls drumming off Nevermind and that of GAP Band and other disco/funk acts from that time. Sheesh.

Grohl has always been a solid drummer to me.

 

[Biscayne]

Looking back the grunge genre and all those different bands being put under that umbrella was bullshyt. Sonically they're different.

That said Alice in Chains is my favorite of the BIG SEATTLE 4 bands

Right!! Some sounded more metal than punk(AIC) some sounded more Punk than metal(Nirvana) and some were more Hardrock(Pearl Jam/Soundgarden). I mean that’s basically “grunge” innit? The love child of Punk, Metal, Hardrock. Basically when Black Flag slowed down punk music when they came out with My War in 1984, that album was a huge influence on Seattle.

Have to say bleach doesnt get enough love. even tho my favorite song of theirs (on a plain) is on nevermind, i can listen to their first album front to back

You’re missing my point, so i’ll let dave grohl tell you himself

Some of y'all MAD late. A LOT of the 'Grunge' artists ( all of them) borrowed stuff from 70's and 80's funk/disco but they were actually continuing a tradition from the 80's. Listen to the bassline of this track.......​

This bassline was 'inspired' by Chic's Bernard Edwards' grooves from the 70's which is why the first time I heard this joint I was like..... ​

What moisturizer do you use

Pharrell has been very open of his skincare. As for me, I just started looking into it. I’m trying to get this paper to eat stupendous in my 30s.

Dave Grohl is great. The smashing pumpkins drummer might the best from that era though

 

[Cave Savage]

Did he steal individual drum beats or just copy the general disco style?
