Quote: (Originally Posted by Lechium) Nirvana was the most pop oriented of all grunge bands. They had tonns of radio friendly not too heavy songs, with very straighforward lyrics. They did get more interesting in In Utero, so we can only guess what could come next, but Nevermind everyone loves so much is just a poppy verion of punk common for local underground of early 90ies.

P.S. if you take word 'pop' as an inslut -- sucks to be you
Personally, I don't label music. There's far too many genres that are similar and run into each other. Pop-Country, Rap-Metal, Blues, R&B... things evolve drift into each other. To me, music is music. If they are "poppy," it doesn't matter, because they were the first to make it big, inspire other bands in the genre, and they added to it, before it was dubbed as "grunge." And, no, pop is not an insult to me.
