  • Summary

  • The speed as which "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and the album it opened, Nevermind, catapulted grunge and alt rock band Nirvana into the mainstream in 1991 is unparalleled. Not just was the song the anthem of a generation, it became a defining cornerstone to the soundtrack of the 1990s.

    This is the story behind the song, and how it helped save rock music, pushing alt rock and grunge into a worldwide cultural phenomenon.
