Vh1 do too many of these list.Most of them suck and are questionably decided by Maxium Magazine and a few executives at Vh1.They claim this list was decided on by the rockers themselfs but I highly doubt this.Pearl Jam gets placed at 21 yet Slipknot,Fear Factory,Type O Negative and too many others to name are left out.I think something very funny is going on or Vh1 just has some bad judgement.

I was watching "Nirvana: Unplugged in NY" bootleg DVD I bought this afternoon and I was saying to myself that it's a shame that a band as talented as they got dragged through the mud over a stupid murder, thus kids latching onto them.
Cobain was a great vocalist, especially in acoustic sets. If you wanna disagree, take a listen to "Where Did You Sleep Last Night" on the Unplugged album, or either of the tracks with the Meat Puppets.
As a whole, they were held in such high regard for ushering in a movement, and not so much the quality of their music. Cashed in a dress code, and added some attitude. WTF. They were still a good band, but no means out of this world, and more 50 - 60 material.
