I have no idea as to what exactly is planned now. Here is a recent quote from an interview with engineer Brent Sigmeth talking ‘In Utero’ and the 20th Anniversary release:

“I think it would be excellent if Steve’s mixes were released as an entire package, maybe mastered by someone he trusts. After all, it’s all the Nirvana I listened to between the recording and the actual release later in ’93. A cassette tape of Steve’s mixes had fallen behind the tape deck at Pachyderm and I found it while cleaning up after the boys and Steve had left. It had all the Steve mixes on it. I’m proud to say that we protected that cassette with honour. We made no copies. Sometimes, it was brought out of its secure hiding place and played for trusted fans through the same speakers it was mixed through. I loved the original Steve mixes of the remixed singles.”

I’ve had photographers send me photos, as well as a few other sources. Most of the time photos come from LiveNirvana / NirvanaClub / NirvanaGuide. You can check out our Links here.

NirvanaNews Archives.

Fans are also allowed to submit photos to us.

Hopefully soon. September marks the 20th Anniversary for ‘In Utero’ - so we should hear something within the next month if they are still planning anything for it.

The almost ‘Nevermind’ baby - a girl.

“I went to this school where they teach babies to swim and offered $50 to bring their kids to try out and $200 if we picked them as a model. This one girl was like a machine — couldn’t walk, couldn’t talk, but she would just motor around underwater. I have no idea at all who the girl was or where she is now. I’d like to know what happened to that chick.” - Kirk Weddle (Photographer)

“The first time Kurt and I slept together was at a Days Inn in Chicago, we were having our first postcoital moment, and we’re watching MTV and the ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ video came on. I pulled away from him because it was his video, his moment, he was the king of the fucking world, he put his arm around me and pulled me closer. Which was symbolic, like, I’m letting you into my life. That really endeared him to me,” - Courtney Love.

The Record - Kurt Cobain talks about the songs on ‘Nevermind.’

Smells Like Teen Spirit: “My generation’s apathy. I’m disgusted with it. I’m disgusted with my own apathy too, for being spineless and not always standing up against racism, sexism, and all those other isms the counterculture has been whining about for years.”

In Bloom: “Reproduction.”

Come As You Are: “An old-fashioned love song coming down in three-part harmony.”

Breed: “Getting into Middle America. Marrying at age 18, getting pregnant, stuck with a baby - and not wanting it.”

Lithium: “People who are secluded for too long go insane and as a last resort they often use religion to keep alive. In the song, a guy’s lost his girl and his friends and he’s brooding. He’s decided to find God before he kills himself. It’s hard for me to understand the need for a vice like that but I can appreciate it too. People need vices.”

Polly: “Rape.”

Territorial Pissings: “In the animal kingdom, the male will often piss in certain areas to claim his territory, and I see macho men reacting towards sex and power in the same way. I’d like to see these lost souls strung up by their balls with pages of scum manifesto stapled to their bodies.”

Drain You: “Almost all of the songs on the album are about love - or confusion, which usually is the result of love. Outcries of confusion about love and not understanding relationships, not just with your mate but with anybody, with yourself, with animals, etc.”

Lounge Act: “Love, problems.”

Stay Away: “Bitching and complaining.”

On A Plain: “Love again.”

Something In The Way: “Love - plain and simple.”

I don’t believe it will. It goes down to which goodies the guys pick for the 20th.

Nirvana Revealed: Backstage diaries tell of Kurt Cobain’s passion for Scotland.

The first thing you notice about Kurt is his piercing blue eyes. He has peroxide hair in between two styles and two colours, blond with darker roots. It looks like he’s growing it in with signs of a shorter, more sensible crop from about six months before.

He looks undernourished, slightly sick, as if needing or just recovering from surgery. At the time, I didn’t know about his prescribed medication.

As a supposedly hyperactive four-year-old, he was prescribed Ritalin for a period of three months and later in life, unrelated painful stomach problems would require ongoing medical monitoring.

He wore gloves with the ends cut off, an Oxfam raincoat and a cardigan with holes in it.

He preferred roll-ups rather than filtered cigarettes. I watched as he expertly created a perfectly formed homemade cigarette.
