Last week marked the 20th anniversary of the release of one of the most influential rock albums of all time: ‘Nevermind’ by Nirvana. Boasting huge anthems and classic tracks such as ‘Breed’, ‘Lithium’, ‘Come As You Are’, ‘Drain You’ and of course ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’, the album undeniably boosted the Seattle misfits into super stardom and changed the face of music ever since.
Without Nirvana, and especially the release of ‘Nevermind’, many of today’s most popular rocks acts may not be around today at all, and the shape of music as we know it could’ve been completely different. We asked a few of today’s rising rock stars what they remember from ‘Nevermind’, what the album means to them and what their favourite track is from the record.

Note: As only three members of the site were able to attend the festival weekend, we were sadly unable to cover every band performing throughout the day.
Extended to a full three-day weekend with just the Saturn stage not used on the Friday, the first day of musical entertainment at this year’s Sonisphere brings a bloody big attraction: The Big 4. With their first ever appearance over in the UK, the festival sure has a pretty impressive exclusive amongst the rest of the country’s festivals, and for all thrash metal fans this surely the makings of a wet dream come true.

Revivals aren’t always the best of ideas, and some things in life should be left dead. A few examples of which would include the all-over denim look, Voldemort, the Gladiator TV series and ankle warmers. One recent push for revival in the rock scene lately is that of grunge, one attempt of revival that is welcomed, and Japanese Voyeurs are maintaining a great name in the genre with their debut ‘Yolk’ that was left behind by its originators back in the 90s.

Japanese Voyeurs bring out their armoured artillery and war gear in the video for their new single, ‘Cry Baby’. Despite how timid and innocent vocalist Romily Alice may look normally, in this army attire she looks like she could cause some serious warfare:
‘Cry Baby’ is taken from the band’s forthcoming album, ‘Yolk’, set for release on July 11th through Fiction Records.
