The Amplified Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana
 

When published 30 years ago, Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana offered some fascinating insights into the iconic rock band and the sound that shaped Generation X. Now, on its 30th anniversary, the book is getting some huge updates.

The Amplified Come as You Are: The Story of Nirvana takes what the original book offered—exclusive interviews with the band, including the only interviews ever done with Kurt Cobain before his suicide—and adds a fresh layer of polish.

The book has been re-written and “amplified”, featuring new annotations, thoughts by the author, retrospective analyses of the impact Nirvana has had on the modern music world, and deeper, more refined insights into the creativity and life of one of the greatest songwriters ever to rock a concert.

Nirvana fans, this is the coffee table book you will absolutely want to add to your collection.
