With fascinating details and an interview with the legendary Kurt
Cobain himself, this volume goes behind the songs to tell the story of
the revolutionary grunge band from Seattle.
Unflaggingly faithful to its punk rock roots, Nirvana was the catalyst
behind a sea change the likes of which the music world had not seen
since The Beatles spearheaded the British Invasion. This book delves
into the band's entire output, answering such questions as: Why did
Cobain feel moved to write "Polly?" What is Teen Spirit? Who is Floyd
the Barber?
Album by album, and track by track, it follows Nirvana from its earliest
days to rock superstardom, pinpointing the genesis of each of the band's
original songs. Fans will find unparalleled insight into one of the most
important bands and times in the history of rock 'n' roll.
