Was he the last rockstar?
>>
yeah

p.s. he died after bleach, spread the word
>>
>>61402062
Yes.
>>
>>61402062
So the Bleach meme has mutated into outright "le wrong generation".
>>
Yeah the last major one. He's up there with Lennon and Hendrix.
>>
i'm so happy contrarians forgot about their stance on Nirvana. feels good talking about them again :)

Cuz they found out about "obscure" bleach, They've morphed from hating nirvana because they were popular to liking there most obscure record.
>>
The internet killed good music and the chance for stars

Too many low talent crowding

At this point even Jeff Bezos is more rock star.

umm...
>>
>>61402236
The internet is going to die in that regard soon. Instead of blindy shitting their music onto souncloud and twitter and getting ignored, people are going to use the old school approach and record labels will pay attention since they desperately need a revitalization too.
>>
He was one of the last ones to be worth a damn, but last Rockstar? No. Christ, Fred Durst was a rockstar.
>>
>>61402293
what old approach? doing free shows in germany for 4 years and then slipping vinyls under peoples doors?

why do people think the internet is going to revert nothing will change peoples standards will go up
>>
>>61402288
this meme is heinous
>>
BIG CHEESE
>>
>>61402236
Yeah and there's too much exposure to the bands, through social media and interviews on YouTube. Back then I imagine there was a mystique about bands, stuff you could only learn through word of mouth. I think what made death grips so interesting was their reclusiveness and unpredictability which is odd in this Internet age of visibility and expectation
>>

>why do people think the internet is going to revert nothing will change peoples standards will go up
The internet is going to become looked at as some kind of antiquated death trap of creativity in the next few years. People (hipsters) will turn on it and create some angry, genre bending music which the labels will pick up as their new Nirvana.
>>
>>61402371
this will literally never happen.
>>
>>61402477
I think the angry genre bending music thing probably will since fads always repeat in some form or another but the internet's here to stay as the primary source of spreading music.
>>
>>61402327
not a meme dumbfuck that album was psychedelic grunge it kicks ass and its deep af you dont get it go do ayuwasca or something.

>>
>>61404291
No, that's just the only song poppy enough for a pleb like you to appreciate, stick to Nevermind kid.
>>
Nah, Axl was.

Cobain was a whiny little fag, not a rockstar.
>>
>>61402062
I wish more rock stars could actually sing well.

Him and Jeff Mangum are the last ones I can think of.
>>
Last rock star as in, the general public is aware of their existence, Kurt Cobain was a household name. Fuck your Homme's and Mangums. Are you guys motherfucking kidding me.
>>
>>61403466
opinions differ

He's right tho, the order is In Utero >Incesticide > Unplugged > Nevermind > All the shitty bootleg shit > Bleach

Pete Doherty
Jack White
Julian Casablancas
Karen O
Craig Nicholls
Alex Turner

and that's just in the garage rock revival of the early 00s

Cobain is great, but the meme that he's the last rock star is fucking idiotic

Pete Doherty might be the best proof - his band changed British rock music, he's a talented poet, he went crazy on drugs, he was a style icon, he had a very unique, charismatic personality, he dated Kate Moss, he was friends with Amy Winehouse... Doherty is about as much of a rock star as you can get
>>
>>61407793
>Pete Doherty
If no one knows you in the states, you're not a rockstar. Also, there are levels. There are stars in rock and rock stars, someone who transcends the bounds of music and pop culture and becomes a phenomena.

Alex Turner? Really?! Replace that fag with Dan Auerbach! Alex Turner (Or the Arctic Monkeys) aren't rock stars. They are literally copying the shit out of other artists that are already inspired heavily by blues

These two get it.
