In Bloom: The Road to Nirvana

The rise of Nirvana to prominence was one of the most epochal moments in 1990s popular music. But their success had many fathers (and indeed a few mothers). Never one to hide their influences, Nirvana, led by the charismatic if troubled Kurt Cobain took inspiration from varied sources in the rock spectrum. This video takes a look at the building blocks which made Nirvana's phenomenal success possible, not just in the sounds but also the evolution of alternative rock which enabled this success.

Featuring Iggy & the Stooges, Boston, Sex Pistols, The Raincoats, Neil Young & Crazy Horse, Bad Brains, Killing Joke, Hüsker Dü, Pixies and Mudhoney.
