You can't be FUCKING serious?
I am...
These bands are on the same level in terms of music quality, importance, relevance, and inspiration(good/bad)....the only thing left to be similar is longevity, and at 10-15 years so far that should prove accurate as well...
Just because it was from the 90s and was really popular in the mainstream doesnt mean that the artists cant be compared to the sacred cows of the 1960s...
Let me say this
PJ and Nirvana recycled music.
The Beatles and Stones were innovators.
HUGE HUGE HUGE difference.
We aren't gonna start calling Cobain the John Lennon of our generation, are we?
Whats next? Kim Thayhil is similar to Hendrix?
You're nuts, fucko.
You ever hear of a guy named Robert Johnson?...
Had he not invented the guitar playing style and riffs used by the Stones in the 1930s, Keith Richards would be banging heroin from used syringes in a London bathroom stall today....or dead....either way, he'd be penniless....
Theres your innovator kids, the Stones just took Johnson's delta blues to amps and the world stage...
Keith happilly admits to this...Lennon was glad to admit 'borrowing' much from Buddy Holly etc...and Macca's Yesterday 'dream' sure sounds alot like Louie Armstrong....
