Nirvana’s Nevermind will turn 20
Nirvana‘s classic album, Nervemind, was released on September 24, 1991. I bet Michael Jackson loved the cover.
Anyway, if you do a little math, it will turn 20 this September. Will someone try to milk the occasion and milk this some more? Of course.
“Universal Music Enterprises is pleased to announce the 4-CD/1-DVD Super Deluxe Edition of Nirvana‘s Nevermind available September 19, 2011, in the U.K. and September 20, 2011, in North America. The CDs will include previously unreleased recordings, rarities, B-sides, BBC radio appearances, alternative mixes, rare live recordings and an unreleased concert in its entirety on DVD.“

Aww, isn’t that sweet? A lot of shit I don’t care about repackaged so we all buy this thing yet again. And people say record companies are greedy.
Speaking of this album though, read Guido’s Tuesday Trivia about a certain musician being in the video for ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit.’ Although you probably did already, cause you’re a fan of this site and we own.
Tuesday Trivia: Smelling Fear in the Teen Factory
Now, if the headline above isn’t just the greatest headline of all time, then I might just have to lay off the weed. And, depends on if you’re stoned yourself or not, you might have already figured out what, or rather whom, this article is about. But, just in case, I’ll break it down for you.
‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ + Fear Factory + weed = Smelling Fear in the Teen Factory
Worked for me.
But anyhow, now you know whom this article is about. Are you wondering just what the two (the Nirvana song and Fear Factory) have to do with each other? Well, make the jump to find out.
Hey! It’s time for headlines!
Today is June 6th and that means it’s ‘Internatinal Day of Slayer’, a day where dumb/redneck Slayer fans dedicated Slayer fans get heavily intoxicated, listen to Slayer all day and randomly yell “SLAYER” every 10 minutes or so. So, uh, yeah… SLAYER!!!!
Queensryche recently just released a brand spanking new song titled, ‘Around The World’. The track comes off their upcoming new album, ‘Dedicated To Chaos’, which will be released on June 28th. Interesting… Queensryche still make music? Don’t get me wrong, I do enjoy them. Operation:Mindcrime and Empire are great records. I’m just surprised they are still around. I’ve not heard anything new from them in ages. As usual, you have to “like” the band on Facebook to listen to the track.
Jane’s Addiction > Nirvava. Well, that’s what Tom Morello basically said. Tom was inducting Jane’s Addiction into the Guitar Center RockWalk and said
“Nirvana often gets credit for being the first ‘alternative’ band to break through, the band that changed music and led rock out of the hair metal wilderness of the ’80s. That’s just not true. It was Jane’s Addicton: inspiring intelligent, furiously rocking and artistically deep.” The thing is, I don’t really care.
He’s got a point. The thing is, I don’t really care. Nirvana died in 1994 and the latest Jane’s Addiction song sounds like this
Opeth, one of the best live bands around, have released a handful of North American dates for their upcoming tour with Katatonia. Not a big Katatonia fan, but that’s not stopping me from going to see Opeth live for the 4th time. Tour dates can be found here
Dave Grohl speaks on Nirvana "reunion"
Well, he speaks on reuniting with former Nirvana bandmate Krist Novoselic and producer Butch Vig actually, and working with them on the new Foo Fighters album. But the post title grabbed your attention, right? Ha! Read the interview excerpts here.
