Produced by Butch Vig, Nevermind would present the band's raw sound in a more accessible form to the general public while not sacrificing the songwriting or energy of earlier music.

It is the rare album that can be said to have changed the landscape of popular music, but that is no exaggeration when it comes to Nevermind. All editions and formats are due out on November 12.
To celebrate this new anniversary, Geffen/UMe has announced new reissues of the album in a variety of formats including two editions of a super deluxe box set: an 8-LP version with a bonus 7-inch single, and a 5-CD version with a Blu-ray. Exactly thirty years ago tomorrow, September 24, 1991, Nirvana's Nevermind hit store shelves.
