Melvins' Buzz says Nirvana doc 'Montage of Heck' is BS, defends Kurt Cobain | Aggressive Tendencies

Музыка

In June, we caught up with King Buzzo, Dale Crover and latest addition Jeff Pinkus (ex-Butthole Surfers) before their show at the Danforth Music Hall in Toronto for this episode of Aggressive Tendencies. In this interview, the trio share their thoughts about being dubbed the "Godfathers of Grunge," insights about their songwriting process and Buzzo's recent acoustic solo album. June 22, 2015.

    Grunge is so loosely defined anyways. Soundgarden and Alice In Chains had a metal influence, Pearl Jam was more of the 70s stadium rock type band, and Nirvana was more like an alternative band with a big punk influence much like the Pixies. The only reason these groups are associated as playing the same type of music is mostly due to where they came from and when they emerged.

    Ty Manning - I agree. Grunge was a title slapped on the "Seattle Sound" by media outlets. Most of the bands didn't even acknowledge grunge as a genre. Kurt Cobain hated the term.

    Yea I don`t think PJ liked the grunge title too much, they were quick to change their sound and kept doing it pretty much each record...Eddie even changed his singing style around No Code... When I think of grunge it is usually either early Nirvana Bleach era, or AIC`s self titled album.....2 totally different sounds but both kind of sludgy and grungy.

    I was really disturbed by Montage of Heck, it was so exploitative and I felt dirty for watching it. You’re just viewing someone’s deepest darkest feelings and flaws, all of those incredibly personal things that aren’t meant for the world just being carelessly tossed out to the public for another cash grab. It was just disrespectful in my opinion.

I guess sometimes royalties are just not enough. Hollywood is an expensive place after all, we wouldn't want Frances having to pitch a tent with the thousands of people on the street in LA who have had addiction issues too!

    Yes, but the film is not clear if this is Kurt telling a story he made up, or if he quotes from his diary, so the say. The 'friends' in that clip seem made up. His friends at age 16/17 (I think that's the age he was sort of talking about) were guys like Jesse Reed and Steve Shillinger, and a bit later, when he hang around The Melvins rehearsals, Buzz, Dale, Matt Lukin and Krist Novoselic. Having read 6 or 7 books on Nirvana, these same names keep coming up. Not 'Trevor', 'Darren' or 'Ace'. It appears this was some joke story. He didn't have any friends at high school that he would hang out with, basically being a loner there.

    I’ve been to Aberdeen it’s not THAT bad, the hotels on ocean shores are really nice but they’re right in a sense, that outside of the beach there if you actually go into town there really isn’t much of anything. I remember I wanted to get a cable for my laptop and the nearest Best Buy was like an hour and a half drive away.

    Americans usually don't know how good they have it, most complain about growing up in a small town not realizing that there are entire COUNTRIES like that. Try living in Helsinki, Finland for a year for example.
