This album freed the alternative music from underground and led it to the biggest stages, television and most popular magazines covers. By February 1992, Nevermind ran triple platinum. The UK audience welcomed this album as warmly as back in the States. In the early 1992, Nevermind dethroned Michael Jackson’s Dangerous and topped the American charts. The perfect example of Nirvana’s art was Smells Like Teen Spirit, an MTV favorite. The music by Nirvana, simple, yet original and sincere, made its makers the new youth icons.
Neither the label nor the musicians themselves expected this record to gain such stunning success. In September 1991, after the European tour with Sonic Youth, Nirvana released their best album, Nevermind, one of the most outstanding pieces in the history of rock-music. Dave Grohl, the drummer, was the last member to join the band and complete the lineup. Many labels fought each other for the chance to sign a contract with the talented young musicians making an original sort of music. Thanks to multiple concerts and promotion via college radio, Nirvana interested big recording companies. They recorded the debut album, Bleach, for as little as 606.17 USD and released it in spring 1989. Nirvana is an American band formed by Curt Cobain and Krist Novoselic in 1987, in Aberdeen, a small town in Washington.
