Dave Grohl is insanely more talented even if he makes garbage music.

Dave Grohl is like good at a lot of things, but not great at anything.

Kurt is one of the most talented singers/songwriters that ever lived.

Dave Grohl is a good musician, but I hate anytime that I hear him sing, while Cobain had an iconic voice.

Kurt wrote better songs, but Dave is a better musician. Dave writes awful songs though.
Dave Grohl's best work is his drumming on Songs for the Deaf.

I love nirvana. They are a top 5 favorite band of mine. And i adore Kurt cobain. I could never choose Dave grohl over him. I feel like kurt definitely wrote better lyrics than grohl with the foo fighters. Sad you type Mexican Seafood into Google and you'll be given a bunch of mexican restaurants haha

I mean that Dave is technically better at his instruments. His guitar playing is better than Kurt's, I think. On top of that, his drumming is technically better because he actually drums.
But as a songwriter, I like Kurt better.

That makes him better at the instruments, but not a better musician. Better guitarist, better drummer, sure

Idk though that's just imo

Edit: if anything he's a worse musician for doing less with more

someone can be a classically trained violinist, for example, plays in symphonies, masterful at their craft, etc., for example, but can't write music for shit.

so you could say that this person is better as a musician due to their training, experience, and so on than someone who can't play music at all, but the other person can be better at writing music, and you can say that they're the better song writer.

Cobain was the better frontman. Grohl is a lot better of a drummer than he gets credit for sometimes.

Being a musician, imo, has more to do with playing an instrument and the technical ability, than being a songwriter.
There are musicians that are very good at their instrument, but can't write a song to save their lives, as well as songwriters that write fantastic songs but can't play an instrument, or are not very good at it.

Edit: what g0ldie said.

they have completely different skillets and styles. I love Kurt because he went all out but it's also part of what caused him so much pain. Grohl is perfect for the liberal late night shows and radio.

I love Kurt Cobain and all his music, but he legit used the same chords over and over in every single song he made. He was better as a singer than a guitarist and Grohl is great at both.

Cobain was a much more rare talent than Grohl. A lot of people can play many instruments. Cobain's style was more unique, and I'm not even a big fan.

Cobain's voice is the reason why he gets the nod over Dave. Dave , as talented and innovative as he is and was, just wasn't gifted with the vocals Kurt had. Someone before said Kurt's voice is iconic and yeah, without a doubt it is

In songwriting, yes

In musicianship, no

I feel like 99% of the time people say "X is the only good Y song" it's really the only song they actually know.
Either that or the one about the rape thats just kinda a true crime story. Everything else hes too goddamn mushmouth to understand a majority of the lyrics to even know if they are good without looking them up.
