Greetings,

Nirvana is a three piece spawned from the bowels of a Redneck town called Aberdeen WA, (the) hippie commune from Bainbadge Island. Only together for 7 months Kurdt-guitar, vocals - Chris-bass & Chad-drums have acquited a single on Sub Pop records (*single on Sub Pop 200 comp,) A demo, sucess and fame, and a folllowing of millions, selling their bottled sweat and locks of their hair have proven to be the largest money makers so far, but in the future: dolls, peechees, lunch boxes & bed sheets are in the works. An LP is due this April from the wonderful offices of Sub Pop world headquarters. Talent agents Bruce Pavitt (alias Henry Mancini) and Jonathon Poneman (alias Fred Flintstone) have "treated the boys good". The boys hope to work on more projects in the future. (*written small below: "up to them").

Nirvana sounds like Black Sabbath - playing the Knack, Black Flag, Led Zeppelin & the Stooges, with a pinch of Bay City Rollers. Their musical influences are: H.R. Puffnstuff, Marine Boy, divorces, drugs, soundeffect records, the Beatles, younge marble giants, Slayer, Leadbelly, Iggy. Nirvana sees the underground music seen as becoming, stagment and more accessible towards commercial major label interests. Does Nirvana want to change this ? NO WAY !. We want to cash in & suck butt up to the big wigs in hopes that we too can get high & fuck wax figure hot babes, who will be required to have certified aids test 2 weeks prior to the day of handing out back stage passes. Soon we will need chich spray repellant. Soon we will be coming to your town and asking if we can stay at your house and use your store. Soon we will do encores of Gloria & Louie Louie at benefit concerts with all our celebrity friends.

We realize that there once was a 60's band called Nirvana but don't get us confused with them because they totally suck BIG FUCKING DICK.

Good bye
