In a relatively short time span, grunge music exploded out of its native
Seattle and became the most dominant force of the early '90s.
Groundbreaking bands like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice in
Chains introduced a generation of young rock fans to their grainy,
hard-edged brand of modern metal. The rise to prominence for these and
other grunge monsters is detailed here, in Guitar World Presents Nirvana
and the Grunge Revolution. The first section of the book serves as a
tribute to the late Nirvana guitarist Kurt Cobain. It features revealing
interviews with Cobain, a behind-the-scenes look at Nirvana's legendary
MTV "Unplugged" performance, and an insider's guide to the making of
their groundbreaking album, Nevermind. In addition, the book features
interviews with many others who played key roles in the Seattle sound
explosion, including Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard and Mike McCready, Alice
in Chains' Jerry Cantrell and Soundgarden's Kim Thayil and Chris
Cornell. 200 pages, 6" x 9"
