[B]how can any of you say that kurt cobain is not talented or isnt that great of a song writer. have you ever even listened to his music. (not just smells like teen spirt) just because his music is easy to play doesnt mean he's crap. stairway to heaven is very easy to play and thats not crap.

That is where you get it wrong:
stairway to heaven's solo is a perfect harmony altough it is a 3 chords song, while in grunge (and mainly in metal and funk metal) the main idea is just to turn the distortion on and make noise... pearl jam, nirvana, limp bizkit , korn - i know all this are different styles but to me it's the same - bunch of guitarists without even good technique and knowledge in theory turns on the distortion and plays something....

but i know better.
It is not I who am crazy.
It is I who am mad.."
