Zoom “Sub Pop: Seattle: Rock City” by Everett True, Melody Maker, March 18, 1989 (scan by Archived Music Press)“There’s a quote of mine from the Sub Pop article that has been used more than anything else I’ve written, which is the earliest description of Nirvana in a British music paper—how ‘They’re four working-class guys from Aberdeen, blah blah blah.’ What’s really kind of annoying about seeing that description everywhere is, although it’s attributed to me, they’re not my words. I was on serious deadline, an I wasn’t an experienced writer by any stretch of the imagination back then. So I was on the phone to [Sub Pop’s] Jonathan Poneman in Seattle and I was copying down word-for-word what he was telling me about these artists. That’s quite dreadful, really, but what the hell.”—former Melody Maker writer Everett True, from Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge

Here’s a full scan of the oral history of Sub Pop I wrote for the July 2008 issue of Blender (20 years of history crammed into a mere four pages!). This humble piece served as the basis for my book Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge (out in paperback March 13; order info here).
