From the Sub Pop blog: In conjunction with our ongoing efforts to constantly remind people that Nirvana released an excellent record before Nevermind that they called Bleach and we at Sub Pop released, we’ve brought in some classic Nirvana t-shirts to sell on our webstore, the Megamart. Please join us in celebrating nostalgia by donning one on.

Everybody Loves Our Town featured in the new issue of The Fader (plus: the story behind that super-rare Nirvana photo)



The August/September issue of The Fader, on newsstands now, has a three-page piece on Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge. Pick it up today!

Some background on the super-rare photo of Nirvana above: It was taken by Alice Wheeler on Feb. 25, 1989 as part of a Belltown, Seattle, shoot for the Bleach album cover (Sub Pop ultimately used a live shot by Kurt Cobain’s then-girlfriend Tracy Marander). The image went undeveloped for 20 years, until Alice discovered it on an unlabeled partial roll of film at the bottom of a storage box.

The Nirvana pic is one of many previously-unpublished grunge-era photos featured in Everybody Loves Our Town (out September 6 in the U.S. and September 8 in the U.K). See some more images on Facebook; and while you’re at it, please make sure to “like” the page.

[Bleach is] one of my favorite albums ever made. I still listen to that shit to work out.

Major labels didn’t want to have anything to do with me. I was not the one who did the record that broke Nirvana. I was the guy who did the Nirvana record that said it was done for $600. That probably did not help my career. Most people didn’t even listen to [Bleach] because it said ‘made for $600.’ They’d go, ‘Ha ha, next!’

No, they never repaid it, but I’m not going to go crazy over $500. I’ve lost more money than that to friends, so whatever.

There is a story that is true, and it’s kind of embarrassing: I called Kurt up and said, ‘Can I borrow your money to put out your album [Bleach]?’ Which sounds absolutely insane, but that’s where we were at financially. You have to be really shameless. He said no. We ended up borrowing $5,000 from a friend to put it out.

22 years ago today: Nirvana release their debut LP, Bleach



“Bleach was just another album. I thought it was a very good other album, but I thought, Here’s another great record that nobody’s ever gonna hear.”
