I happen to agree with you for the most part, Lechium, but today it's all about remembering, I guess. I've always been way more partial to Alice anyway, hehe, as if you didn't know that already. Timing had a lot to do with Nirvana's success. And while technically, Kurt wasn't the best vocalist or guitar player, he did have another just-as-important quality -- feeling. His voice drew me in from the get-go. There was just a ton of emotion and honesty in it, from what I could tell, and I was hooked. I'm not even a punk fan, really, but Nirvana's music touched me deeply, as did Layne and Alice In Chains' stuff. I'm grateful for what they gave us and I just wish they didn't have to leave us so soon.
