Debaser is just Nirvana for indie kids honestly





And I like Nirvana, but it's true ;)

Review summary from a random 2007 review: Oh look, a Pixes album. Must be great

If only they knew...



"Debaser is just Nirvana for indie kids honestly"

Might actually be the worst thing I've ever read.

debaser is way faster than any nirvana song and doesnt have the quiet-loud dynamic that people usually (rightfully) reference to tie those two bands together. bad take!

I guess it does have the simple chord progression...

"Might actually be the worst thing I've ever read."



I mean, Smells Like Teen Spirit is legit known as a slowed down Debaser pretty famously, sooo





"debaser is way faster than any nirvana song "



No it isn't, this is just factually wrong. Breed, Territorial Pissings, and Stay Away are all similar speeds, and that's just Nevermind tracks

stay away is even faster youre right im wrong tbh but I think the surfer rosa material is more nirvanay, even disregarding the albini thing

hmm I guess I'd say that it's silly to take a band and project influence and then judge it negatively based on that projection, especially if you are nominally ok with both the band and the influence

yknow being like

revolver is just tame impala for xyz

thatd be silly everyone would recognize that

but somehow we're arguing about this

The thing is, I like Debaser, and I like Nirvana



In fact, getting into Nirvana was a gateway for me to be into material like Pixies



But I know that comparing the 2 (accurately) would piss off some of the users in this thread, so that's why I did it



Was sick of all of the dumb Bossanova-hate

I smelt bullshit bait, so I left.

Come up with something better next time and it might work.
