The first person to make Kurt Cobain so nervous that he felt physically ill was Toby Vail, a founding member of the band Bikini Kill. Cobain was talking about this queasy experience when he sang the line "Love you so much, makes me sick." Nirvana was a groundbreaking American rock band formed in 1987, best known for bringing grunge music into the mainstream. The band was led by Kurt Cobain, whose raw, emotional lyrics and unique voice became iconic. Alongside him were bassist Krist Novoselic and drummer Dave Grohl, who joined later. Nirvana’s 1991 album Nevermind, featuring the anthemic hit "Smells Like Teen Spirit," catapulted them to international fame and defined the sound of the '90s alternative rock scene. Their music, often characterized by loud-quiet dynamics and introspective lyrics, resonated deeply with Generation X. Despite their success, the band’s career was tragically short-lived when Cobain died in 1994, but their impact on rock music and culture remains enduring.
