The String Quartet Tribute to Nirvana's Nevermind

[MarchToFuzz]

A string quartet tribute to Nirvana's Nevermind album is being released later this month:

"Exhilarating and haunting, The String Quartet Tribute to Nirvana's Nevermind takes you back while taking you forward. Few albums have occupied the cultural consciousness like Nevermind. And though this landmark album is hard to hear with fresh ears, The String Quartet Tribute to Nirvana's Nevermind gives you the opportunity. Spring is definitely here again on this latest release from Vitamin Records. We have lovingly distilled Cobain's songs down to their purest essence. Intricate melodies accentuate unusual chord progressions, while the dynamic arrangements performed on violin and cello translate grunge into classical punk. Exhilarating and haunting, it takes you back while taking you forward. Take your time, hurry up, the choice is yours."

Yeah i've heard about this somewhere a few days ago,will have to check it out sounds rather intresting,anyone heard anything off it?

[thorn]

i heard it and its wrong nirvanas music should be played by a band not a string quartet, but i suppose if you like that sort of stuff...

[thorn]

according to amazon there has been a string quartet tribute for some time already?? im confused

[I love Kim Deal]

I saw it in the shops (I was actually looking for a Sex Pistols CD) and I just laughed. I think we all know that the band themselves wouldn't have wanted it. But I smell CD sales.

[thorn]

i agree i love kim deal, and i think anyone who buys that shit instead of real music should be shot!!!

[Thurston_Whore]

Im going to buy it...when i find it,so shoot me! thats a very one sided view you have there thorn. REAL MUSIC? hmmm what is REAL MUSIC? music that sell's millions of copies? music that reaches the charts? mabye music that has a band member who kills them selves? at the end of the day it is music,just cause kurt wont be singing dont mean its gonna be crap ah fuck it i cant be bothered im gonna buy it though because im a loser baby so why dont you killllllll me ;D

[thorn]

too late thurston your already dead. 1 question why dont you say the same to martin (no offense martin) just out of fairness. answer= you fucking hate me, mature indeed. by real music i meant music that isnt rehashed over and over by various different groups trying to attain fame from other bands music. by real music i meant why dont they write thier own fucking music, tribute my ass!!!

[Thurston_Whore]

they probably do write their own music thorn,i dont think they just pull people off the streets to play violin and trupet like,but you never know.And thorn stop crying about it man where did i say i hated you? its called musical diffrences so stop asuming man.

[thorn]

haha how do you like it!!!!
