Nevermind

Nevermind is the title of second studio album by American rock band Nirvana, released on 24 September 1991. It became an unexpected critical and commercial success both in the UK, the US and worldwide.

Although it made a slow start in the album charts, Nevermind eventually reached the Top 40 in November, with an initial peak position of no.7 in late January 1992, and no.1 in the Billboard charts in the same month.

The album is considered as the beginning of grunge music and was fundamental in bringing alternative rock music to a mainstream audience and into pop culture. It has gone on to sell over 30 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time.

Among its best-known tracks are the opening Smells Like Teen Spirit and Come As You Are, both released as singles and both UK top 10 hits. A further two tracks Lithium and In Bloom were also released as singles during 1992.
