Nevermind means something different to everyone. To some, it’s the record that killed ’80s metal; to others it’s the album that spawned grunge. Regardless of what it means to you, this iconic disc turns 30 this year, with the edge of a Seattle brewed coffee and a side of espresso.
Geffen/UMe will commemorate the 30th anniversary of Nevermind with several multi-format reissues. A total of 94 audio and video tracks, 70 previously unreleased, will be made available across various configurations ranging from Super Deluxe Editions to standard digital/CD and single disc vinyl with bonus seven-inch. Regardless, Nevermind is newly remastered from the original half-inch stereo analog tapes to high-resolution 192kHz 24-bit.
If you feel like you’re in bloom, and you’re fan enough to purchase the Nevermind Super Deluxe Edition, you’ll get these four complete live shows:
- Live in Amsterdam, Netherlands (recorded and filmed on November 25, 1991 at the famed club Paradiso)
- Live in Del Mar, California (recorded on December 28, 1991 at the Pat O’Brien Pavilion at the Del Mar Fairgrounds)
- Live in Melbourne, Australia for triple j (recorded February 1, 1992 at The Palace in St. Kilda)
- Live in Tokyo, Japan (recorded at the Nakano Sunplaza on February 19, 1992).
The Nevermind Super Deluxe Edition will be available in both vinyl (8LPs – 180-gram black vinyl – all in premium tip-on jackets — plus the new seven-inch – A-side: “Endless, Nameless” / B-side: “Even In His Youth” and “Aneurysm”) and CD+Blu-ray (five CDs plus Blu-ray – Live in Amsterdam, Netherlands complete concert video newly remastered audio and video in HD).
