Released on September 24, 1991, Nirvana’s second album Nevermind had a significant impact on the music industry. Butch Vig and Billy Corgan developed a friendship while working on Smashing Pumpkins’ debut album Gish, leading to Vig’s involvement in Nirvana’s Nevermind.
Kurt Cobain’s directive to Butch Vig for Nevermind was simple: “I want to sound heavy.” Dave Grohl thought “Smells Like Teen Spirit” would be just another album cut, not a hit single.
