[kj] Banning the "N" word

[Tim Bucknall]

well i started my musical journey with nirvana  in 91 when i was 13 and i've ended up in the right place
so maybe they did some good ;-)

as soon as i discovered the pistols my nirvana cd's began gathering dust and from the pistols/PiL i discovered KJ

obviously in hindsight it would have been better if i'd heard extremities or murder in inc in 1991 instead of nevermind, but hey i got there in the end

oh well whatever

  Please don't give them that credit. Before N_____, there was Soundgarden, Mudhoney & the Melvins.

    I think I recall an individual belonging to the "N" word,"Nirvana" who played a great part and member of the 2003 KILLING JOKE ROSTER!
     
    Namingly Dave Grohl, Former member of The "N" word, "Nirvana"..
     
    I'm not so much hung up on "Nirvana", and not greatly,  A "Die Hard Fan".....
     
    The point is, where I grew up 80's-early 90's "Seattle", The General Music scene was dominated with "Bill Board Crap", but some of us had our own obscure tastes....and certain access to the subculture.
     
    Point is...Man...being a one of few guys, in High School and College that had a problem with "Bill Board Enculturation"....
     
    "Your Not in" if you don't know the latest HIP HOP CRAZE, R & B SINGLE, CONTEMPARY CRAP such as Jacksons, or lets referr to the Mullet Man, Michael Bolten, or VANILLA ICE "SHEET", or Paula Abduul...ETC>>ETC>>ETC.
     
    ONE POINT OF TURNING TO KILLING JOKE, JOY DIVISION, FRONT LINE ASSEMBLY, MEAT BEAT, SCORN, GODFLESH, SKINNY PUPPY, 242, CONTROLLED BLEEDING,...ETC...ETC...ETC...
     
    THE ANTI-MUZAK,,, Forgot to mention THROBBING GRISTLE AND DUH!! COIL!!!
    !
     
    Then at one point, A band emerged out of SEATTLE!!!, , In the early 90's WHO! RESURRECTED A SCENE of ROCK and ANGST ...
     
    AGAIN!! NOT A DIE HARD FAN, but Nirvana do earn credit by opening up the margins and letting the general public know ...ROCK IS NOT DEAD!!!!!
     
    Originality, but Pardon the episode of 80's meets "Come as You ARE"!!!!!
     
     
    SO WHY DO WE BAN THE 'N' word "Nirvana" who expanded new generations to Rock and opening the doors to real TALENT!!!!
     
    Not saying though, that they played their stuff to death and still do!!!!
     
     
    "NOT TO SAY THAT THERE IS STILL A LOT OF CRAP FLOODING THE CORPRATE SCENE"
