Twenty years of Nirvana's 'Nevermind' - the online hype
It’s coming up to the 20th Anniversary of Nirvana’s seminal album, Nevermind. Steve Lamacq is doing a special on Friday to mark the occasion – and there's been rather a lot of people discussing the milestone online this week…
NME.com asked a number of bands from Arctic Monkeys to Everything Everything and Suede what their favourite Nirvana track is.
American radio station The End 107.7 have three new and unreleased tracks from the band!
Well, kinda.
They have some of the demos which are coming out on the 20th anniversary deluxe box set, including Smells Like Teen Spirit Live From The Paramount – which strictly speaking are unreleased, but not really new as some blogs are saying.
And from that gig, on the Nirvana Vevo page right now there are some clips.
While a cattle of Seattle artists last night performed the album in full, including bassist Krist Novoselic – its up for the rest of the day to watch again so be quick and click here.
Billboard have collated – in their opinion – the best Nirvana covers. Have a look here as Patti Smith does Smells Like Teen Spirit, Yuna has a stab as Come As You Are, and much, much more.
And they’ve had a chat with Novoselic.
There is even a dedicated website – Nevermind20.com – collating a load of the video and photos, giving a comprehensive history of the album and its legacy, while inviting fans to share their memories and stories.
Elsewhere, The Music Fix have listen their top 10 Nirvana live moments.
Consequence of Sound have posted an interesting piece on the Six Degrees off Kurt Cobain: Seeking Outer Nirvana.
And there is so much more…
