Nirvana are one of the most well-known and successful rock groups in the history of recorded music. The trio from Seattle were fronted by Kurt Cobain (born February 20, 1967, died April 5, 1994), and featured future Foo Fighters frontman Dave Grohl on drums.
Their second and third albums, 1991's Nevermind and 1993's In Utero, are two of the biggest selling records in history. With their legacy preserved by the shotgun suicide of Cobain in 1994, Nirvana retains the air of legend.
In 1991, Nirvana became the biggest band in the world. Essentially on the back of one song: "Smells Like Teen Spirit." With its title taken from a piece of graffiti spray-painted by Bikini Kill's Kathleen Hanna, the song was Cobain's attempt to "rip off The Pixies."
