OMB Peezy
Look at me, all expanding my horizon on a Good Friday. You may not think that is a good thing after you listen to the video below by OMB Peezy.
All apologies are from me. By the way, I despise the way Dave Grohl plays drums within the video below. He plays as though he is afraid to play the drums.
Editor's Note: There are adult words within this video.

The Grunge Gold Rush Followed the Hair Metal Gold Rush Part II
This post is a continuation of Part I.
The point is, that when the author of this article about the "Grunge Gold Rush" wrote "Mike Gitter, a punk-rock specialist who was starting out as an A&R man for major label Atlantic Records, home of hair-metal veterans White Lion, Ratt and Mr. Big", he is too dismissive of an entire movement. White Lion, Ratt, and Mr. Big came out in different parts of the 'hair-metal' movement. Ratt came first, then White Lion, then Mr. Big. In fact, with Mr. Big, I can't call that band "hair-metal" with a straight face. Read the WikiPedia article here.
Maybe I should have sat down and formulated an outline to my arguments in this post because I've rambled quite a bit, all because I read this article: The Grunge Gold Rush Is there a lesson here? January 12, 20186:38 AM ET Steve Knopper
Editor's Note: An article relevant to this post lists the Top 10 Metal Albums of 1988.
In general, #10, #2, and #1 belong on the list, but unable to make a credible judgement about the other 7. Unlike other Internet music writers, this blog's editor has self-control! Read the entire article here. Also worth noting is the fact that the following labels were created for this post:
60% is a passing score!

Cobain Would be 50 Today
Instead of having Nirvana tunes playing in the background, there is some weird & annoying crap. You probably will want to mute this video.

Nevermind
Editor's Note: Today, on the 24th anniversary of Nirvana releasing their album called "Nevermind" is the first time I've ever felt the need to have a "Nirvana" tag on this blog.
Nirvana sucked. They had odd guitar tones, their singer mumbled, and their drummer (Dave Grohl) played too simple and didn't contribute to what I heard when I heard "Smells Like Teen Spirit" the first time. Then I heard the entire release. I wasn't any more impressed. At an Old Stew gig at Bonehead's in 1992, our guitarist Bulldog started to play "Smells Like Teen Spirit" only to generate our vocalist Shoebox remarking that "you can't understand what he's singing anyway" - that sums up what I thought of them as well.
