We don't want to give away all the quirks of the gig, but blood-covered guitars and Grohl's game of drum-kit Jenga rate highly. Chloe George reviews.

It’s hard to believe, but this winter marks the 20th anniversary of the release Nirvana’s debut album, Bleach. In honor of this music milestone, Sub Pop is re-issuing Bleach as an expanded CD/double LP. Originally recorded in December, 1988 and released in June of ’89, the album received international recognition after Nevermind took off. Some of the features include a previously unreleased

What the heck can I say about Nirvana that hasn't already been said? The trio had an immeasurable impact on my budding love for music in my teenage years.This week we see a couple of reminders of the legacy that Nirvana has left. In commemoration of the 20th anniversary of their debut album Bleach we get a remaster of that record. More interesting though is the DVD/CD release of the band's

Contrary to popular assumption, there was life before Nevermind. It consisted of a meagre $606.17 recording budget, and a rough, raging, rebellious statement of intent. It’s the album that was initially regarded as an amateurish, coarse precursor to what is a seminal popularisation of the Seattle grunge movement. Now, twenty years on and with the…

Doing the obligatory relistening to an album I've been through inside and out...I came into my formative years right after he offed himself. I remember where I was when the DJ announced it. Waiting in the parking lot in my father's car, alone so I could listen to any station I wanted. At the time it meant precious little to me. The name was familiar, how could it not be, the biggest rock star o...

Starting with Nevermind, Kurt Cobain intentionally simplified his compositions in order to emphasize their pop components. Less song-focused than later Nirvana works, Bleach acts as an interesting showcase of the band’s musical chops. It’s amazing to note that it’s now been 20 years since Nirvana released its first album. It only seems like yesterday that the grunge group emerged from the Am

Some things you just don't quite know how to respond to... and this is one of them. Perhaps you can play with your Cobain toy while wearing a pair of spiffy *"Kurt Cobain Converse shoes":http://mog.com/Mackenzie_P/blog_post/151686* too.I love how "the Wired Listening Post":http://blog.wired.com/music/2008/04/kurt-cobain-unp.html responded to this.

Is Courtney Love in trouble? Does she owe money to the mob? Gambling problem? Drugs? Or is she finally ready to part with the last of Kurdt's belongings? Ready to move on perhaps. I ask these questions because some anonymous Craigslister has posted some interesting Cobain memorabilia for sale on the legendary online classifieds website. The Olympia, Washington Craigslist has "Original/Si...
