    While I agree Radiohead is still making some great music (even The Eraser was a great album), they aren't even among the top record sellers. Their only hit in America was "Creep" and that could be one of their worst songs (IMHO). REM had an album come out last year to high critical praise, much like Tools albums, but most people who only listen to whats on the radio would never here anything from those albums. Soundgarden is not a band, but Audioslave has had a great amount of success (it doesn't hurt having Tom Morello as a guitarist). I just couldn't see Nirvana lasting, or keeping their sound "fresh". I'm not saying it would be impossible for Nirvana to still be relevant, but they would never have sold half the amount of albums that they did if Kurt Cobain wouldn't have died.

    FYI Audioslave DID break up, and RATM and Soundgarden are going to get back together.

    The Beatles, for Christ's sake, has a video game of their own. I think a song or two from Nirvana would be ok for Mr, Cobain.

    I have not heard of either RATM or Soundgarden getting back together. From all the rumours RATM isn't getting back together, they had a reunion tour but are not planning any future albums. Zac De La Rocha is currently in a new project called One Day As A Lion with Mars Volta Drummer Jon Theodore. The only thing I've heard about Soundgarden's members is that Chris Cornell has been doing solo work but again no concrete article saying they're getting back together.

    Their album One By One was fantastic but they went too mainstream from there, in my opinion.
