Just the breadth of his work is amazing. He's existed as a big force in the rock world for 4 times longer than Nirvana, and showed he's more than that guy behind the drum kit flinging his hair around.
this is coming from someone who practically worshipped Kurt Cobain up until his death.

The Beatles only released albums over about 7 years.
Grohl has several good songs, plays drums insanely well and has contributed a lot. But by and large his music is paint by numbers B.L.A.N.D. - you can't even begin to compare it to Kurt's.
I remember seeing FF at a festival in '94 and he just wouldn't shut the fuck up and play. Seriously he went on and on and on like he was coked out of his mind chatting longer than the actual songs. The AIDS and vaccine denialism (not that that specifically comes from Grohl) is fucktarded too. Everlong is pretty good though.
