Free and very gecovert: »Nirvana - Nevermind" as "full album cover" of 13 artists.
Nirvana - Nevermind (at amazon.de) on 24 September 1991, ie almost 20 years ago, they released the album Nevermind by Nirvana. One need not be a fan of the band or grunge to understand that this is an epic album in rock history, which was the initial impetus for the success of many other bands and this, though not for the first and last time, the corrupt and soft-boiled rock music scene of the then recently ended 1980. Various Artists - Newermind; cover artwork (c) Spin Magazine 2011Auch still refer a lot of indie rock musicians on this "Nirvana" effect.
As a tribute to Nevermind now, the U.S. music magazine Spin Magazine has invited an artist, chose to cover all the tracks on the album. The result is called "Newerkind" (SIC!!), Has a pronounced stupid artwork (see right) and contains some nasty, sometimes surprisingly successful contributions of Butch Walker & the Black Widows (note the Yes-quote in the guitar solo "in Bloom "), The Vaselines, Amanda Palmer, Foxy Shazam (very cool!) and a bunch of hip indie artists I know, of course, hardly. But I'm too old and not hip and does not need to know all the linnets.
To download the album for free, one must merely the infamous "Like" on the Facebook page by clicking SPIN and request the download with a valid email address. Who has no Facebook account, which has until 25 July wait, then there are the tracks of the album on this page → as direct downloads.
