Quote:
Nevermind
is the second studio album by the
American
rock
band
Nirvana
, released on
September 24
,
1991
. Produced by
Butch Vig
,
Nevermind
was the group's first release on
Geffen Records
, which signaled its move away from
Seattle
-based
independent record label
Sub Pop
. Front man
Kurt Cobain
sought to make music outside of the restrictive confines of the Seattle
grunge
scene, drawing influence from groups such as the
Pixies
and its use of loud/quiet song dynamics.
Nevermind
was a surprise success by late 1991, largely due to the success of its lead single "
Smells Like Teen Spirit
". By January 1992 it had replaced
Michael Jackson's
album
Dangerous
at number one on the
Billboard
charts.
Nevermind
was responsible for bringing
alternative rock
to a large mainstream audience, and would subsequently be regarded as one of the best rock albums of all time
