Michael Azerrad: Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

The definitive biography of the revolutionary band Nirvana and its star-crossed frontman Kurt Cobain, hailed by Rolling Stoneas "the first [book] to comprehensively tell the band's tale from Aberdeen, Wash., to world domination"

"Amazingly raw and candid . . . an unsparing and extremely honest depiction of the group's highly tumultuous history . . . Come As You Are is as good as rock bios get."---Billboard
"Just tell the truth. That'll be better than anything else that's been written about me."---Kurt Cobain

Nirvana came out of nowhere in 1991 to sell nearly five million copies of their landmark album Nevermind , whose thunderous sound and indelible melodies embodied all the confusion, frustration, and passion of the emerging Generation X.

Come As You Are is the close-up, intimate story of Nirvana---the only book with exclusive in-depth interviews with bandmembers Kurt Cobain, Krist Noveselic, and Dave Grohl, as well as friends, relatives, former bandmembers, and associates---now updated to include a final chapter detailing the last year of Kurt Cobain's life, before his tragic suicide in April 1994.

Vivid, evocative, and thought-provoking, Come As You Areis an essential document not just for Nirvana fans but for anyone interested in the cultural legacy of the 1990s.
