He wasn't even that. He was a pretty bad songwriter. His music was by and large mopey, plodding monotonous work that is dreary to listen to. Apart from Smells Like Teen Spirit, I don't think he wrote a single song worth listening to.

Thank you, bigstrat2003, I'm going to throw out all my Nirvana CDs based on your authoritative statement.

What, pray tell, should I be listening to instead?
