Widely acknowledged as one of the greatest, most poignant and significant rock acts ever, Nirvana changed the musical landscape forever and instigated a revolution of raw, heart-wrenching songwriting. Through a total of five albums, including the Grammy-winning MTV-Unpugged performance, Nirvana rose to unprecedented heights - a level of success that would tragically prove unbareable for the iconic antihero Kurt Cobain. Cobain's songs were at once both anthemic and inwardly searching, connecting with a disaffected youth and, alongside groundbreakers Mudhoney, spear-heading a vital alternative to the stale stadium rock of the early 1990s. Following in the path set down by Sonic Youth and The Pixies, Nirvana's sound was brash and awkwardly melodic, a blueprint for the countless bands that would follow in their footsteps. This collection gathers together the best of their recordings, all arranged in accessible easy guitar tablature with full lyrics.
