grunge music

In 1993, Michael Azerrad published Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana, which stands as the definitive biography of Nirvana, the legendary band that upended the pop cultural landscape with Nevermind. Written with the band's complete cooperation, this book features interviews with singer-guitarist Kurt Cobain, bassist Krist Novoselic, and drummer Dave Grohl. Azerrad has revisited and reconsidered his original text in this "amplified" version.

Profiles the band Nirvana and discusses how their first album was made, how they influenced their fans, what each member thinks about the album, and other related topics.
