Rough Trade Essential

Nirvana is a rock band from Aberdeen, Washington, USA. Formed in 1987, they emerged from the Seattle grunge scene of the late 1980s/early 1990s. The power trio brought a new aesthetic to the rock scene at that time. Their major-label debut album, "Nevermind," released in 1991 by DGC/Geffen Records, broke both the band and grunge into mainstream America. Sadly, lead guitarist and vocalist Kurt Cobain's death by suicide in April 1994 marked the end of Nirvana.

The band went through several name changes before settling on Nirvana in March 1988. Prior to that, they were known as Skid Row (6), Pen Cap Chew (2), Bliss (108), Ted Ed Fred, Throat Oyster, and Windowpane.

The final lineup consisted of Kurt Cobain on lead guitar and vocals until his untimely death in April 1994; Krist Novoselic on bass and accordion from March 1987 to April 1994; and Dave Grohl on drums and backing vocals from September 25, 1990 to April 5, 1994.

Nevermind raised groundbreaking Seattle grunge trio <a href="https://roughtrade.com/us/artist/nirvana">Nirvana</a> to the status of godhead, forever changing the face of the pop music market.

Punk energy and aesthetic (Territorial Pissings, Drain You) are its lifeblood; pop melody, harmony, and structure (Something in the Way, Come as You Are) its selling points; Kurt Cobain's roaring guitars and subconscious intellect (Smells Like Teen Spirit, In Bloom) its heart and soul. Nobody had come up with an album like Nevermind before, because no one could conceive of an album like it - not since <a href="https://roughtrade.com/search/smart?utf8=%E2%9C%93&amp;search%5Bterm%5D=husker+du">Husker Du</a> had broken up, anyway.
