The Vaselines

[captaindry]

Anyone into them? They greatly influenced Nirvana's frontman Kurt Kobain (he covered Jesus Don't Want me for a Sunbeam). They wrote some great pop songs.

is this some kind of kinky lube?

no, i havent heard of them.. how long have they been around?

name some songs

 

[captaindry]

they didn't take themselves seriously as a band, but they were interesting. I thought for sure some people would have heard of them because Nirvana's so big and there are so many kids who ****ing worship Kurt Kobain.
songs
son of a gun
lovecraft
jesus don't want me for a sunbeam

move away from The Vaselines, and into The Linkin Parks....

I posted this topic because I was curious to see if anyone here was into them. This topic is titled the Vaselines, start a Linkin Park topic and talk about Linkin Park. I believe that's how it works from what I observed so far. Linkin Park has talent, I'll ackknowledge that, but I don't really care for them, sorry.

I only heard about them in relation to Nirvana. Nirvana did some very interesting covers in their time. I kind of wonder what they would have come out with if they were around for a few more years. It's sad what happened to Kurt Cobain, a lot of torturd good musicians die a little to young.
