 TODAY,  (2016) will mark the 25th anniversary of the groundbreaking NIRVANA single "Smells Like Teen Spirit", unleashed 9/10/1991 via GEFFEN RECORDS, as it changed the world, bringing alternative rock culture and integrity into mainstream consciousness. 


NIRVANA vocalist/guitarist KURT COBAIN was found dead, 4/8/1994 in his Washington home by an electrician installing a security system in his home.

So far, there is no conclusive evidence to re-open the KURT COBAIN case, ruled a suicide in 1994      (suicide via a shot gun and heroin), although some investigations are still happening as a "cold case".

According to Seattle Police Department spokes woman Renee Witt, "The outcome of the case has not changed".

NIRVANA re-issued remastered versions of the bands releases.
