        A lot of 90s alt rock and grunge was a backlash to virtuoso guitar bands of the 80s and any solo was as simple as possible.

        Kurt wished he could write a 1 note solo like this.

          Fake is the wrong word, IMO. People like Kurt were extremely creative and expressive without 240bpm notes like the 80s.

            I believe he explicitly called them fake but I can’t recall exactly when I picked up the term so could be totally wrong as usual
