Samenvatting

An audiobook exploring the personal and cultural forces that inspired Nirvana's music, the author’s friendship with Kurt Cobain and why multiple generations remain fascinated by the 1990s.

“Just tell the truth. That’ll be better than anything else that's been written about me.”—Kurt Cobain to author Michael Azerrad

It has been three decades since Nirvana upended the pop cultural landscape with Nevermind, the landmark album that became the soundtrack of Generation X, capturing its confusion, frustration, and passion. In 1993, Michael Azerrad published what stands as the definitive biography of this revolutionary band and its star-crossed frontman Kurt Cobain. Written with the band’s complete cooperation—the only book to feature interviews with Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl—it became a massive bestseller, and in the words of Cobain, "the best rock book I’ve ever read.”

Seven months after the book’s original publication, Cobain was dead by suicide, making Come as You Are the only book-length record of the inner life and creative mind of one the most significant songwriters and musicians in rock history—a haunting and haunted artist whose influence continues powerfully to the present day.

In these new essay-like annotations Azerrad deepens our understanding of this legendary band. He solves former mysteries, reinterprets the key players and the time, investigates depression and other psychic traumas, debunks myths and legends, and offers celebrations of that pivotal moment in the mid-1990s as he searches for the answer to the question: Why was this music so extraordinarily powerful?

Vivid, evocative, and thought-provoking, this is essential not just for Nirvana fans but for anyone interested in the cultural legacy of the 1990s.
