Written by Jon Stickler
Nirvana, the trio comprised of Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl, hailed originally from a coastal fishing town in Washington and rose to become one of the most influential rock bands in history with irreverence, intense honesty and an overriding passion.
The cultural shift Nirvana’s 'Nevermind' was felt instantly on release and the profundity and depth of that shift becomes even more apparent when seen through the prism of the two decades of art and music created in its wake.
Released in September of 1991, Nirvana’s 'Nevermind' garnered near-unanimous praise and rose within a few months to the #1slot on Billboard’s U.S. sales chart. 'Nevermind' was propelled to #1 across the globe by their young fans worldwide that identified with the band and embraced their anthem 'Smells Like Teen Spirit' and its landmark music video. Since then, it has sold more than 30 million albums worldwide.
Nirvana changed the course of popular music forever and remains an inspiration to those who have followed.
It has been announced that a 4-CD/1-DVD Super Deluxe Edition of Nirvana’s 'Nevermind' will be available globally from week commencing 19th September 2011. The CDs will include previously unreleased tracks, rarities, b-sides, BBC radio appearances, alternative mixes, rare live recordings and an unreleased concert in its entirety on DVD.
The 20th anniversary of Nirvana will be marked throughout the year, with various events and releases.
