It is a good song, though not their best - I can't say I understood it when I first heard it since I was only 6-7 at the time. It's hardly deep though and it never affected me

My older brother kept me awake long into the night playing that album back in the early '90s.
Patti Smith did a pretty good cover of it recently.

Blegh. Kobain's done more for music by being dead than he ever could've by producing. Imagine another 2-3 years of grunge. No Foo Fighters until 1996. Five more Alice in Chains albums... *shudder*
That said, their cover of "The Man Who Sold The World" is top-notch.

I haven't listened to this in an eon.
It's still pretty good though. I think it's the riff.
In retrospect I gotta say there was better music around at the same time that I wasn't listening to.

I liked the song back in the day but I never found it particulary deep. I do find it interesting that they use the word "mulatto". I never noticed until I read the lyrics.

I've heard it and i haven't been deeply affected by it. it's a good song nonetheless but it's ridicolous to see all the people who are my age go totally "crazy" to it at a party, and you know they only listen to the crap beeing played on MTV and the comercial radio stations. They think it rocks and it's sooo cool. It's sad really.
I'm 19 and i listen to good music. That is d'n'b, hardstyle, hardcore, trance & hard trance, psytrance, and all the old hardrockk classics. I remain highly annoyed by all the new style hip-hop and r'n'b that gets played on MTV and comercialised radio stations. Pop stopped beeing fun when the eighties ended. Gwen Stefani is alright though but her later works are really influenced by the eighties sound with.. Oh and i'm a member of Phoenix Division. And we rock.

Not just that song... the entire friggin' album - flawless. Must've listened to it thousands of times, along with those Pixies records and so many others. Back from the golden time when there were great albums and bands being released and popping out all over the damn place. Back when we had weekly music papers that didn't suck.
It all kept going strong for a few more years afterwards. Triphop acts such as Massive Attack, Tricky, Portishead, Morcheeba. The bands that brought techno music to the masses. Aphex Twin and his Warp label cohorts. Radiohead. Mogwai.
But then, towards the end of the '90s it all seemed to go downhill. There's been a few new great bands since, sure. White Stripes, The Strokes and the copycat bands that followed. And others, yes. And of course, Metal, which after a weak decade during the '90s, went through a glorious rebirth during the '00s. Though it has lost a bit of steam during the last year or two.
I never really got hip-hop (and I don't really care about hearing why I should), so perhaps that may explain things. But is it just my crancky old bad self or modern music is just not what it was a decade or two ago?

I forgot: and there's actually a strong connection between Garbage and "Smells Like Teen Spirit". Butch Vig (from Garbage) was the brains (or rather the "ears") behind the "Nevermind" sound. He produced it, and had a lot of input into what it ended sounding like.

Rapcore ruined mainstream rock right around 2000, and it's still yet to recover. Well, rapcore, what passes as emo nowadays, and that Nickelback-Staind-Creed strain of whiny post-grunge rock.
Trust me, man, I feel your pain. As the electronica scene died around here in about 2002-2003, I found myself thrust back into mainstream outlets and recoiled from the crap therein. The 2000's will be written off as a decade of ****ty rock. Only thing that's kept me remotely sane is a decent collection of music spanning the late 50's to 1998 or so.

TBH its more than the song or the lyrics to me , Kurt was a pioneer imo who first introduced alternative genre which was the real brilliance in this whole thing . Never mind album is still one of my all time favourties along with Hybrid theory for Linkin park and Spawn sound track ,one of the very few albums i loved every song in it.

I'm younger than 25 but still went through a Nirvana phase... and interestingly enough, I never did think 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' was that good a song. Still don't. Didn't stop it from being the 2nd song I learned on guitar though (after 'About a Girl').

And the Butthole Surfers, in all their gloriously demented lunacy. They lost their magic later on as drug addictions and other factors took their toll, but they were very influential too and a necessary reference for the alternative music scene that developed during the '80s and fully blossomed in the '90s. I managed to catch them live in '92 and their shows were still pure raging insanity.

There were obviously good metal albums and bands coming out during the '90s - and that included too the Black Metal Norwegian scene that produced excellent and seminal acts such as Burzum, Carpathian Forest or Darkthrone, and of course Neurosis, who went on to influence a lot of bands coming out years later - but if you look at the overall picture you'll realize that the scene paled in comparison to what came before in the '80s or the resurgence it experienced in the '00s.
Particularly in regards to extreme metal and all of its subgenres, which after hitting the doldrums in the mid-'90s (aside from Black Metal) it spawned once again a prolific assault full of innovation and twisted aggression.

i dont get it, black metal, death metal, doom metal are not metal? and those genre's flourished during the 90's. if anything, in the 00's the different scenes are struggling with the legacy of the 90's. the endless rowes of **** black metal, wannabe hardcore bands with weak vocals trying all they could to be pantera. so if the first 5 years were good, and 5 other were bad, it was all bad? the glass is half empty? i still dont understand where you are coming from with this. mid-90's? machine head released its only good album then, at the gates released 'slaugther of the soul' in 95, paradise lost released 'draconian times', emperor released in 94 'In the Nightside Eclipse', pantera released in 96 'The Great Southern Trendkill'. still not mid 90's enough? the list goes on forever. but we can just agree to have different opinions. you didnt like the 90's, i did.

I know, I was joking...
To your earlier point, I would agree the 90s were probably better, but (and there must be more stuff out there as I dont really keep up anymore) I like Dream theater, and Jotun. I am also not a metal purist, so I would put static x and stuff in the metal catagory which I like. I believe they were all 00...but I could be wrong.
But take it with a grain of salt as I am probably the only person on the planet that thinks Far beyond Driven was Panteras best album which had their best song.Linkage _______________________________________________ RuntimeError: ChainEvent is blocking by design, but you're block trapped.

Did you actually read the post you quoted or just failed at reading comprehension? As I said, Black Metal (particularly in the Scandinavian countries) indeed had an excellent period during the 90s (and fyi, 'In The Nightside Eclipse' is a prime example of this).
Actually, the rise of Black Metal is correlated to the decline of Death Metal during the mid-'90s, as many people from the latter scene grew tired of the rut it was falling into and moved to the former. Prime example: Darkthrone, who after a Death Metal debut album, made a dramatic change into what would become one of the hallmarks of Norwegian Black Metal.
And we can keep on naming great metal albums coming out in the mid '90s as much as you want, but nevertheless if you exercise your capacity of abstraction and are familiar enough with the last three or four decades of metal, you'll realize the scene was far more prolific and thriving during the previous and following decade. And no, I'm not counting nu-metal.
Some blame these DM '90s doldrums on it becoming too big and bloated for its own sake, and major record companies getting involved. See Carcass, Entombed or Deicide for instance, who ended upgrading to majors and releasing tired albums or disbanding. Thrash metal went pretty much MIA, with the big 4 either releasing albums that were mere shadows of their '80s releases (Slayer, Anthrax) or that were increasingly becoming non-metal (Metallica, Megadeth).

Happily the situation has been much better over the last years, with not only a re-invigorated scene and outstanding fresh new blood (Nile, Akercocke, Isis, Mastodon, etc...) but also old timers making a comeback with some of the best records of their careers (Iron Maiden, Deicide, Celtic Frost... even Megadeth is shaping up nicely once again).

If you want to blame the folks who made it mainstream, you could start with Dashboard Confessional and trace it back to At The Drive-In and Sunny Day Real Estate.
If you want to go clear back to the roots... well, that's the mid-80s, when some of the punk scene moved away from the anger<<<>>>violence paradigm and explored pain, love, loss, etc.

Originally by: Rawr Cristina so who was responsible for the sudden emergance of all the extremely annoying emo/screamo/punk banks that we see around today? I never thought the angsty teen scene could get more annoying than the Nu-metal phase but it has and infinately so 
Punk influenced / evolved into so many other bands / different genres that a lot of guitar-based bands nowadays can trace their roots back to it, one way or another. It's a subject worthy of volumes of study.
I'm not really familiar with the current strain of emo bands, so I'm just going to shamelessly hijack your question and illustrate a bit the history of Punk's influence on modern day Death Metal. Just because. I like it.
Putting aside for the sake of brevity proto-Punk bands such as Ramones, the Stooges and New York Dolls, we start our trip with the seminal Sex Pistols. Among their many offshoots, some bands took their music and made it harsher, faster and more politically involved, such as the Dead Kennedys and Black Flag.
Discharge in the early '80s turned up the notch regarding the harshness of both sound and lyrics, evolving Punk into Hardcore. This proved to be another seminal band, as it in turned heavily influenced amongst many others another nascent band in the anarcho-punk scene called Napalm Death, who took the Discharge sound and eventually mixed it with what was going on the metal scene at the time, most particularly a Thrash Metal seminal band, Celtic Frost.
This new combination of Thrash Metal and Hardcore Punk was initially dubbed Grindcore, featuring extremely fast songs and the "blast-beat", popularized initially by Napalm Death's drummer and eventually becoming one of Death Metal's defining features.
Back then there were no internets, so the way different music scenes in different countries communicated with each other was through "tape-trading", basically snail-mailing across countries and the Atlantic poorly-copied cassettes with demos and albums by their favourite bands after getting in touch through ads in scene fan/maga-zines.
Aside from the bands that Napalm Death's drummer influenced through tape trading (such as another seminal US Death Metal band, Morbid Angel, who's drummer whiz-kid Pete Sandoval adopted blastbeats whole heartedly), Napalm Death also featured originally Lee Dorrian on vocals, who left the band to form yet another seminal Doom Metal band, Cathedral.
It also featured Bill Steer on guitars, who also left Napalm Death to focus fully on Carcass, which in turn evolved Grindcore into fully-formed Death Metal, and proved to be a key influence in a whole new generation of extreme metal bands.
This is of course simplified, and does not take into account the contributions of quite a few other key bands. But it's late and I'm drunk and stoned, so that's that.

ps, when did nile give out its first album? 00's or 90's?
Their first album was published in '98 (actually Karl Sanders used to hang out with the Morbid Angel guys back in the '80s), but they didn't come of age until the '00s, their last three albums being their best output to date.

I liked Bleach better. And Nirvana's later stuff sucked. But Nevermind was a good album.

Already been done, although he did a little more than pop his ear drums.
It is a decent song but it is overplayed to an extreme on the radio.
