    Around the first week of September, 1991, I was at a party with my friend who was a DJ at a local college radio station. They had a promo of Nevermind which he had borrowed. We walked out to his car and the first track he put on was "Smells Like Teen Spirit." I was mind blown. I had been listening to Bleach since it came out - loved the cover of Love Buzz. I expected more Melvins type rock. Instead, it was like hearing The White Album, Led Zep IV or Hendrix for the first time as a young teenager. World changing experience.
    Two months later, I went into basic training and lost contact with the world. Four weeks in, we went to the PX for Christmas gifts to send home to our families. There was Nevermind sitting at number one on the music rack - at the post exchange - in the US Army. Mind blown again! What a time to live.

      To be honest, Nirvana had an impact on everything that could have fallen under the alternative umbrella, including punk. They had impact on bands that were around even before them--just like Mike said, it opened up opportunities to bands and whole genres that weren't previously accessible. They were a big deal.

One of the other kids had bought him the cassette for his birthday and at night when we were all in sleeping bags he put it on. I was blown away, I'd never listened to an album where every song was like the best song I've ever heard. They'll never be another album that hits like that.

    I was very young, 7 years old, I don't remember exactly when I listened to the song, my dad listens to old rock/blues and didn't like music from the 90s very much, but I remember that he listened to the track "in bloom" a lot, somehow he liked that song and this one it was the first song I remember. In utero I already have greater memories, I was already a child turned to oldies rock (like my father) but I liked punk and later I started skateboarding, so in the explosion of 94 I met the california punk that I listened to over the years follow. I remember hearing from Nofx, Pennywise, No use for a name, green day, even Blink's dude ranch, and it was in 99 that this scene became even more pop with enema of state, I preferred the old bands to the new generation that would arrive in the 21st century, but I must admit that I was a teenager and listened to everything related to punk. Today, more mature, I remember punk/pop punk/melodic punk (I still listen to it) with affection and nostalgia for a phase of my life. It seems that the old blues/rock bands from the 50's to 70's that my father listened to, dominated me in the long run.

    I remember saying to her, “I don’t get it.”

    One of the greatest live concerts I've ever seen was In Montreal watching NOFX play the Decline live , after they said they would never play it live. Started off the performance with a 20 minute song that im sure every one in the "Industry" said not oi do but every fuckin kid in the audience knew every single word of that song and sand along like it was Sunday at Choire with the father watching. Then they went on to play like 20 more 3 minute songs

    I remember the first time I heard "Smells Like Teen Spirit" was through my older brother. I was in 7th grade and he had bought the CD single and he would listen to that song over and over. He was out one day and through being sneaky, I discovered there were two other songs on the CD - "Even in his Youth" and "Aneurism". I liked and listened to those two tracks more than SLTS. I still think that SLTS is one of the weaker Nirvana songs, but I can appreciate what it did.

    Mike being honest. Yes, without Nirvana, NOFX, Rancid, The Offspring, basically all of the SoCal punk bands would likely have stayed underground. And, because of that, all the great bands that the aforementioned bands took under their wings or put out on their indy labels would likely have stayed unknown.

    • @oldschoolpunkguy1

      Nirvana just happened to be the one that broke but there really was this growing underground scene that was just waiting to burst. For example Social Distortion had signed to a major label by 1990. Jane's Addiction were quite popular by then as well and then there was the first Lollapalooza tour in the summer of 1991 shortly before "Nevermind" came out. A lot was happening that set the stage for Nirvana who were the right band at the right time.

      @@oldschoolpunkguy1 you’re right. Nirvana was just the first band that was actually good enough to cause the breakthrough into mainstream music. They could appeal to almost anyone. There’s no way a joke band like NOFX or the Offspring was going to be able to do it on their own. Pretty Fly for a White Guy? Not exactly ground breaking music that will continue to touch people for generations to come. But it got lots of airplay that’s good for the band. Those bands were just fortunate enough to be around when it happened. They were obviously never going to be as popular as Nirvana still is but if you play something on the radio enough times some people start assuming it must be good and these are the listeners/fans bands like NOFX and the Offspring were able to gain through Nirvana’s breakthrough. Nirvana made people realize there were entire music scenes/genres that weren’t being played on the radio and made them more open to hearing other types of music. Some good. Some bad. Am I glad more people were introduced to music like punk and ska in the 90s? Yes. Am I glad it was through bands like NOFX and the Offspring or Save Ferris and the Mighty Bosstones? Eh.

Especially given the comment and video you responded to. I was just responding to what you’d said with my own words and thoughts on the matter. You made it sound like you think the climate was such that basically any underground band at the time could have caused the breakthrough into mainstream and I’m saying I don’t think that’s true. The public might have been ready to hear something new but it was still going to take the right band to do it. Most punk and pop punk bands weren’t really very good and only had the following they had because they were “punk”. Nirvana was on another level and those other bands were just fortunate enough to be in the right place and time when they broke through to ride their coattails and get some fleeting mainstream success themselves. Those other bands are still around and still play shows but their mainstream success has gone away because they’re just not that good or because they’re so weird or different they can’t appeal to the masses. I love Jane’s Addiction but I couldn’t tell you the last time I heard them on the radio. They were all just the new thing to check out in the 90s. Nirvana hasn’t put out an album in decades but people still listen to them and cover their music every day.

I became a fan by the bands image alone. I was a late bloomer as far as Nirvana goes. I used to listen to those 90's dance and hip hop songs all the time that that's all I knew. Never had cable cause my mom was religious and shit. One day in 1998 I'm in my room and I was listening to the radio and the station that played that song had never played it before or after, it was just that one time. I heard the song and ended up buying the cassette. Changed my life and picked up guitar because of Kurt and Billie Joe of green day.

      They actually got paid 10,000 and only threw out 2500. But still amazing. Read their book. It’s so great. Gives you the insides to all their stories.

    I was in the Navy, in the middle of packing to leave the base and go back to the civilian world. I heard Teen Spirit on the radio and immediately took a walk to the base commissary to buy the album. As I walked out, I jumped over a little wall and landed in a hole and twisted my ankle, leaving my wife to pack almost the entire house by herself.

    I was about to begin physical education class in school. I was in front of the gym sitting on a bench with a friend who liked to be seen as "the craziest-I-don't-give-a-fuck rocker" in the place and he wanted to show me why he loved heavy rock music so he brought a stereo and played the CD right there. That was my point of no return.

Anyhow, I listened to the CD on the way to the Six Flags Over Georgia end of the year party. Still have that CD in its original case and yes, I still play it from the CD from time to time. 🤗

    I heard Nevermind at my friend Joe's house at Dog Beach, San Diego. I picked my friend Mike up from Yosemite where he was working for the summer...drove him down to San Diego. Joe said their new album was good and played it for us. It of course blew up! The other album that blew up was Green Day's Dookie...but most people my age all said it was pop punk. Which it was. But yeah, flyers and posters everywhere...even on Haight Street! All those years ago!
