The MTV live acoustic show they did is their best stuff ever though.
That show/album is awesome. For me it's a tossup between unplugged and in utero

I don't think of grunge as a genre as much as I think of it as a label based on how the bands looked. It was really just a mostly regional explosion of good alternative rock bands. And I wouldn't really say that Nirvana is over rated as much as I would say that it's not surprising the grunge band most influenced by pop music became the most popular.

I don't think they've one of the top 3 biggest impacts on music. On the 90s? Of course. 2000s? Yeah. But overall? Off the top of my head I think of the first polyphonic compositions, churches starting to accept the use of tritones, and the invention of the six string guitar.
