Everybody Loves our Town


Twenty years after the release of Nirvanas landmark Nevermind album, Everybody Loves Our Town: A History of Grunge offers the definitive overview of a musical time and place. Grunge, also known as the Seattle sound, is the sludgy fusion of punk r ock and heavy metal that emerged from the Pacific Northwest in the early part of the 1980s. But it was the unexpected, seemingly overnight success of Nirvanas single Smells Like Teen Spirit, in the fall of 1991, that made grunge a household word a nd launched an American music movement on a par with punk and hip-hop. Twenty years later, Mark Yarm captures that era in the words of those at the forefront of the movement and its lesser-known champions. Everybody Loves Our Town will tell the whol e story: the founding of originators like Soundgarden and the Melvins, the early successes of Seattles Sub Pop record label, the rise of powerhouses Nirvana and Pearl Jam, the insane media hype surrounding the grunge explosion, the suicide of Kurt C obain, and finally, the genres mid-to-late-nineties decline. Drawn from extensive interviews and featuring many rare and unseen photographs, Everybody Loves Our Town is at once a moving, lurid, funny and hugely insightful portrait of this extraord inary musical era.
