Nirvana’s Nevermind Is Being Reissued for Its 30th Anniversary

Nevermind cover

Nirvana‘s classic sophomore album turns 30 tomorrow (stay tuned to the site tomorrow to see what’s to come on that front). Nevermind‘s legacy is pretty damn safe at this point, that much we know. But, there’s even more to be unearthed from the band’s archive than what the 20th anniversary set revealed.

Nevermind will be getting another massive reissue featuring a ton of goodies, including 70 previously unreleased tunes culled from four classic live shows. Those shows include Live in Amsterdam, Netherlands (recorded and filmed on November 25, 1991 at Club Paradiso), the much-bootlegged Live in Del Mar, California (recorded on December 28, 1991 at the Pat O’Brien Pavilion at the Del Mar Fairgrounds, which was part of the iconic tour with Red Hot Chili Peppers and Pearl Jam that we wrote about here), Live in Melbourne, Australia for Triple J (recorded February 1, 1992 at The Palace in St. Kilda), and Live in Tokyo, Japan (recorded at the Nakano Sunplaza on February 19, 1992).

Listen to a version of “Breed” from the Amsterdam show below.

 


The set is due out on November 12 and comes in a variety options, ranging from Super Deluxe Editions to standard digital/CD and single-disc vinyl with a bonus 7-inch. In all formats, Nevermind is newly remastered from the original half-inch stereo analog tapes to high-resolution 192kHz 24-bit.
