Nirvana se "vračajo "z zbirko uspešnic, naslovljeno Nirvana na katerem je poleg že znanih skladb še neobjavljena You Know You're Right.Oboževalci kultne zasedbe boste 4.11., teden pred izdajo ploščka že prebirali neobjavljene spomine Kurta Cobaina naslovljene Journals. V dnevniku boste izvedeli marsikaj, izseček v angleščini pa najdete tudi na ŽVPL-u.
Kurt Cobain je sam naredil konec super uspehu Nirvane, zakaj in kako bo bolj jasno po 4. novembru. Izdaja zadnje neobjavljene pesmi se je zavlekla, ker sta imela pravice za upravljanje zapuščine preostala člana skupine Dave Grohl in basist Chris Novoselic skupaj s Kurtovo vdovo Courtney Love. Le ta je skozi tožbo proti Grohlu in Novoselicu zahtevala vse pravice o odločanju zase, saj naj bi bila po njenih besedah Chris in Dave le priveska brez kreativnega vpliva.
P.S.: Eden od dveh (ne)kreativcev, Dave Grohl je s svojim bendom Foo Fighters prav te dni izdal novo ploščo One by One.
Courtney, Chris in Dave so tako končo dosegli sporazum, sadovi le-tega pa so že opevana kolekcija naj naj hitov in neobjavljen dnenvik, iz katerega lahko nekaj izsečkov (v angleščini) preberete tudi pri nas:
Journals - Kurt Cobain
"I like punk rock. I like girls with weird eyes. I like drugs. (But my body and mind won`t allow me to take them). I like passion. I like playing my cards wrong. I like vinyl. I like to feel guilty for being a white, American male. I love to sleep. I like to taunt small, barking dogs in parked cars. I like to make people feel happy and superior in their reaction towards my appearance. I like to have strong opinions with nothing to back them up with besides my primal sincerity. I like sincerity. I lack sincerity."
...
"I`ve read so many pathetic second rate, Freudian evaluations from interviews from my childhood up until the present state of my personality and how I`m a notoriously fucked up heroin addict, alcoholic, self destructive, yet overtly sensitive, frail, fragile, soft spoken, narcoleptic, neurotic, little pissant who at any minute is going to O.D. jump off a roof wig out blow my head off or all 3 at once. Oh Pleez Gawd, I can`t handle the success! The success! And I feel so incredibly guilty! For abandoning my true comrades who were the ones who are devoted who were into us a few years ago. And in 10 years when Nirvana becomes as memorable as Kajagoogoo, that same very small percent will come to see us at reunion gigs sponsored by Depends diapers, bald fat still trying to RAWK at amusement parks. Saturdays: puppet show, rollercoaster & Nirvana."

"If we were going to be ghettoized, I`d rather be in the same slum as bands that are good like Mudhoney, Jesus Lizard, the Melvins and Beat Happening rather than being a tenant of the corporate landlords regime."
...
"There are a lot of bands who claim to be alternative and they`re nothing but stripped down, ex sunset strip hair farming bands of a few years ago. I would love to be erased from our association with Pearl Jam or the Nymphs and other first time offenders."

"Within the months between October 1991 through December 92, I have had four notebooks filled with two years worth of poetry and personal writing ... The most violating thing I`ve felt this year is not the media exaggerations or the catty gossip, but the rape of my personal thoughts. Ripped out of pages from my stay in hospitals and airplane rides hotel stays etc. I feel compelled to say f--- you F--- you to those of you who have absolutely no regard for me as a person. You have raped me harder than you`ll ever know."
