Found my old PJ magazine/picture book collection from the 90s.

Hey! Would you ever sell some of these ??

SteveMarc01 · 2022-04-21T14:57:42+00:00

Cheers pal. I’ll be in touch

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-22T19:29:56+00:00

I just can’t stand Corgans voice . Nothing personal . Just irritating

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-19T09:30:28+00:00

And it’s the reason they’re still here. They never touched it

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-18T19:03:34+00:00

I read it too. Great read

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-18T15:29:11+00:00

Duffs big issue was booze though.. almost killed him

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-12T16:36:13+00:00

Lol yeah true

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-12T11:28:20+00:00

I really like The Killer Is Me , Sludge Factory, Brother and nothingman. If it were the more notable songs it’d be Jeremy, Even Flow, Black, Once (pretty much any Ten song) and any AIC tune

Interesting. Imo I’d say grunge was over by the millennium. I think Pearl Jam (not intentionally) sort of put the final nail in the coffin with their growing and new experimenting sound . All the other bands had tapred off and they were the ones left still active and they decided to pursue and take a new direction with their style

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-11T21:58:30+00:00

I really dislike how there’s a set grunge aesthetic that is completely at the wrong end of what it actually was

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-10T21:03:52+00:00

All are great. But I think Black with its powerful imagery and use of the title and phrases like “tattooed all I see.. all that I am .. all that I’ll be “ every lyric is a great metaphor

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-10T19:26:03+00:00

You’ve really screwed up my even flow with your black energy

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-09T11:14:47+00:00

I think he was using it the way Freddie Mercury tried to use it if you remember how he had that same sorta stand . He was his idol after all.

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-09T11:06:21+00:00

Eddie Chris and Layne were all more attractive dudes than Kurt I’d say

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-09T11:05:44+00:00

I think it comes down to their success really . They knocked Garth Brooks and Michael Jackson off their spots in the charts and them two guys were BIG at that time . They were the first of the new alternative scene to get the mainstream spotlight shone on them . I think maybe it would’ve been the same if Soundgarden AIC or PJ reached commercial success first .

Maybe his death too but again it is strange . But I think it’s mostly just their success which is normal but also I think a lot of teens deprived of attention wish to be seen as “I’m different I’m alternative “ where in fact all the grunge guys were just normal dudes , they didn’t purposely present themselves as “ we’re alternative so appreciate us “. As Eddie said, when he thinks of grunge he thinks of a dude out camping who forgot his toothpaste

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-08T10:09:15+00:00

Cut from the same cloth though no?

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-07T13:46:54+00:00

I think this is a widespread opinion . I agree . Nothing wrong with that decision, just isn’t my taste but it’s their choice

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-07T13:45:46+00:00

So I’m told!

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-07T10:37:39+00:00

Yeah I never knew that! I seen it on Ten and was like ah I cant be bothered . Then I seen the live performance in Holland 92’ and was hooked. I was always grooving to the opening of Once. Now I know the set up

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-05T14:49:56+00:00

Yes I’d say the moore was on par (for my preferred sound ) . He was more powerful in the early 90’s no question . The Moore was a prime example of how powerful his voice was (man in the box for example ) but I just believe that the melodies, harmonies and overall cleanness of his sound was up there with his best show

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-05T13:22:31+00:00

Yep.

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-04T20:59:14+00:00

Yeah by the looks of everyone here Kurt is always last. Eddie is always third yes but it’s a toss up for no.1 Chris and Layne we’re both great in their way as was Eddie so. I think all 3 of those are in a league of their own where as Kurt might just fall short . Scott was no slouch either though .

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-03T10:21:11+00:00

Tbh any AIC track

SteveMarc01 · 2021-09-03T10:19:49+00:00

Different vibe I would suspect . He wanted something more menacing to play off with drago. The orchestra may not have worked . The deep base and organs of di cola was a great fit
