Smells like teen spirit? More like smells like something fishy. There is video proof that the band responsible for the smash hit “Smells Like Teen Spirit” was not Nirvana but Pearl Jam. There is footage of Pearl Jam playing the song and their rhythm guitarist Stone Gossard reminding the crowd that they played it first. This new development may taint Nirvana’s status as one of the greatest rock bands of all time. “Smells Like Teen Spirit” changed the music industry upon its release and this new development comes as a shock to everyone. Neither band was available for comment as of the posting of this article.
I liked "Smells Like Teen Spirit" better when it was called "Debaser".
