    Guns N' Roses wasn't destroyed, or even diminished by Nirvana. The music video for November Rain came out 5 months after the release of Nevermind, and it still debuted #1 on MTV's most wanted, and went on to be the most requested video on MTV, ever. It is also the first music video on CZcams that was released before the advent of CZcams to reach 1 billion views. It currently has 2.1 billion views compared to 1.8 billion views for Smells Like Teen Spirit.

    “That was great because it got rid of all those guys with hairspray and leotards. Then Kurt came in like a phoenix and cut them down like wheat before the sickle. 'You are DONE.' I particularly loved his music. When one of his songs came on it just hit you - it was so good and there won’t be any more." -Tom Petty

      It’s a myth nirvana killed off all these bands and big 80’s bands. The terrible ones they did acts like Bon Jovi , guns n roses , def lep were all still selling out shows and having big album sales. Nirvana were brilliant and nevermind is a classic but they never hit the heights guns did or could sell out Wembley stadium like Bon Jovi did in mid 90’s. They were mostly an arena band. Great band , grunge itself was amazing but it came and it went pretty quickly.

    In the early 90's a lot of established musicians disregarded "grunge music" as being a passing fad that would soon disappear, when in fact it was "hair bands" that were the fad. They needed something to blame for their failing album sales and decreased popularity, and NIRVANA made for the perfect target. There's not one bad track on Nevermind, and it changed rock music forever. But how long did they actually think that their stale music and teased out hair and lipstick was going to last? Were we going to pay for songs like "Unskinny Bop" forever? Hair bands died of natural causes.

      That’s the way the major labels have always done things, which is part of why WASP’s The Crimson Idol ended up being a semi-prophetic prediction of Kurt’s downfall. Kurt and his buddies made a deal with the devil when they hooked up with David Geffen, and to this day most Nirvana fans will die on the hill of defending Geffen Records because of their role in ushering in the so-called grunge wave. No matter what musical movement you throw in with, the label executives will be there to take their obscene cut of the profits. It took them 10 years to turn the LA sleaze scene into a commercialized joke, they did it with grunge in less than 4.

    "Hair Metal", is actually a derogatory term, coined by 80's Thrash Bands, as an insult to Glam Metal...the actual subgenre. Nirvana, and Grunge, didn't kill anything. The 80's were all about having a good time, and enjoying life. The 90's brought in a time of change: angst, depression, despair; self loathing became the "new norm". The 90's were the hangover from the 80's; nobody wanted to have good times anymore. Glam Metal killed itself, it imploded...nothing to do with Nirvana or Grunge. Guns n Roses co-headlined tours with Metallica, a year after Nevermind was released...but they destroyed themselves, as well. Nirvana and Grunge didn't kill anything, they just added to the flavor. 🤘🏻

    First time I saw "Teen Spirit" on MTV, I thought to myself "These guys combined Black Sabbath with REM". Weeks later, everyone on the street was wearing flannel and Docs. Kurt was proud the wave of grunge rockers made the misogynistic 80s bands look ridiculous. He even laughed at how they all tried to catch up by wearing flannel in their videos.

    Mentioned is Alice In Chains, but not mentioned is the fact that they started out as more of a hair metal type of act and by the time they actually recorded Facelift, were transitioning into more of the grunge movement and sound. I feel they stand apart from most grunge acts, but still fall within. But with that being said, even on some of the earliest demos of some of the songs that would wind up rerecorded and on Facelift, you can hear the hair metal sound a lot more (in both the music and Layne's vocal delivery). I don't know what really came first, the chicken or the egg, but at some point they became the AIC everyone knows. I don't know if the grunge movement had a big impact on their change or if it happened organically, but jeez, I'm sure glad it happened. Layne's voice is still great on those early demos, but it really evolved fast... the goat. RIP Layne...

Except Grunge, wider audience shift also to Hardcore here Biohazard, Dog Eat Dog, Life Of Agony, Skate Punk here NOFX and Rancid, and more. People wanted Metal also but more extreme and serious like Pantera, Sepultura, Machine Head and Death Metal,. Slayer was still going strong.

    GNR could have weathered the grunge era they were that big. They imploded within. If you were doing something different from glam rock like Aerosmith, Tool, GnR, you had a built in fan base. At the height of grunge Aerosmith’s album Get a Grip sold 20 million copies in 1994. The bands like Poison, Warrant, Winger, Motley Crue etc are the ones who got flattened by grunge.
