Nirvana Celebrates "NEVERMIND" 20th Anniversary

 NIRVANA, the trio comprised of Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl, hailed originally from a coastal fishing town in Washington and rose to become one of the most influential rock bands in history with irreverence, intense honesty and an overriding passion. The cultural shift NIRVANA's "Nevermind" initiated was felt instantly on release — and the profundity and depth of that shift becomes even more apparent when seen through the prism of the two decades of art and music created in its wake.

 Released in September of 1991, NIRVANA's "Nevermind" garnered near-unanimous praise and rose within a few months to the No. 1 slot on Billboard's U.S. sales chart. "Nevermind" was propelled to No. 1 across the globe by their young fans worldwide that identified with the band and embraced their anthem "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and its landmark music video. Since then, it has sold more than 30 million albums.

 NIRVANA changed the course of popular music forever and remains an inspiration to those who have followed.

  Today, 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.
