>Kurt Cobain made being a wimp hip and cool
How true is this statement? Songs about anxiety, suicidal thoughts etc. definitely existed prior to Nirvana but they were firmly in the underground and rarely topped the charts.

Ramones did Gimme Gimme Shock Treatment decades earlier.

that's who he was because he was a pisces, but it did not seep into and permeate the actual music

Ramones weren't mainstream in any sense of the term, all of their albums barely made it to the bottom of the charts.

Not even close. There's a reason Anal Cunt's song Hitler was a Sensitive Man has the line
>If Hitler were alive today, he’d listen to The Cure, The Smiths, and Depeche Mode.

His songs weren't exactly about wimpyness though. Hard to say what they were about, but everyone got this teenage angst thing out of it. That was universal.
And he wasn't timid or afraid of talking shit or anything.
