Updated Edition : The Complete Illustrated History
Kurt Cobain and Nirvana - Book
(2016)
Nirvana was a short-lived but tremendously influential band, inducted
into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 2014. This new edition of their
illustrated history presents the band that popularized grunge rock.
Nirvana, the immortal grunge Rock and Roll Hall of Fame inductee, is as
relevant and influential as ever.
Kurt Cobain, Dave Grohl, and
Krist Novoselic comprised Nirvana, the band that unintentionally tore
the music world asunder with the 1991 album Nevermind. The record that
includes hits such as 'Smells like Teen Spirit,' 'Come as You Are,' and
'Lithium' continues to rattle speakers with grunge that truly rocks.
Kurt Cobain and Nirvana, Updated Edition tells the fully illustrated
story of the band that spoke for Generation X in the '90s.
Here
we are, a quarter century after Nirvana irrevocably changed rock and
roll, and the band continues to make headlines and influence music
lovers. A documentary about the band and Cobain's solo album Montage of
Heck: The Home Recordings were released last year, demanding a closer
look at one of rock and roll's geniuses. Kurt Cobain and Nirvana reveals
the band's history with fresh eyes, telling the story of a group that
instigated a return to punk-inspired rock. This updated edition of the
first-ever complete illustrated history of Nirvana features the writing
of a sparkling team of grunge-rock experts and word slingers. The book
also includes performance and backstage photography, as well as
handbills, singles, ticket stubs, gig posters, and other memorabilia
that complement the narrative. You'll also find album reviews, gear
breakdowns, and mini synopses of Cobain's fifty all-time favorite
albums. Nirvana's ride was a wild one - and all too brief.
