- This is Nirvana's origins. Before About a Girl, Bleach, Smells Like Teen Spirit, Come As You Are, Lithium, Something in the Way, Nevermind, Heart Shaped Box, or In Utero, they were just a band. Before that, Kurt Cobain was just a kid. Learn about his childhood, his early interests in the Beatles, heavy metal, and punk rock, and all the things that made Nirvana Nirvana.

Nirvana is actually a conspiracy, it’s just Ringo moving really fast
Can confirm. I wasn't there and only just found out about this info, but I can confirm.
Explains why kurt looks different in almost every photo
shut up ringo
Kurt Cobain and Rivers Cuomo are the same person.
@@tweer64huh
i see nirvana. i click.
words to live by
me too but its also Marc's new video
Same ha
I see nirvana comment. I like.
Facts
I'm always amazed at how much footage there is of Nirvana especially Kurt even before fame- it seems his whole life was documented.
@Dazza768. I'm completely agree with you. As I mentioned earlier although Cobain never seemed to aspire to be the leader of any movement, his figure continues to arouse admiration and curiosity in equal measure. It's amazing with have so much about his life documented.
It’s like how Steve Os whole life’s is recorded before and after he was famous lol
Kinda like Chris Chan
@@GameyRaccoonthat’s what i’m saying
@@beags9995Twas but a joke my friend.
In Kurt’s first band fecal matter, who released one album recorded on his aunts tape recorder, One of the songs Kurt had messed up on one of the songs accidentally recording over a part. In a sheer moment of anger he plugged the guitar directly into the tape recorder recording an amazing solo
is it on yt?
The world cannot comprehend the amount of random knowledge the average nirvana fan has for Kurt Cobain life
@@gabrielfeitosa9404 everything is on YT
what song was it
@@gamfromnam6249I don’t remember I know it’s one of them
Marc, you may be the most underrated channel on this godforsaken platform. The simple yet info packed mini-essays are so good. Also you’re funny as shit.
That's so nice, thank you!
please do your next video on how Bob Marley influenced and inspired the rock artists.
"HE'S AN ELF!" 💀
"HE SHOULD BE IN THE KEEBLER FACTORY!" 💀💀
"he's also one of the nicest people I've ever met." 🗿
such an amazing quote
imagine if the drummer from nirvana met dave grohl
Imagine if foo fighters singer were from nirvanas drummer
imagine if Kurt Cobain met mr nirvana
imagine if buddha got to meet the guys in nirvana
Kurt was so genius for combining punk rock with the melody sensibility of the Beatles
😂 so original....He actually credits a whole list of bands he stole ideas from.
@Distantlights.. I agree with you.
I am a fan of Nirvana. I appreciate the spectacular in their music. I appreciate that their music is made to please the general public with easy and understandable melodies and lyrics, unlike other groups that are highly valued by the majority of Rock lovers.
Good artists burrow, great artists steal
Music and art in general are ideas from another artist but refined into something enticing
Without stealing, music wouldn’t have its foundations and be what it is today
I love the Beatles and pretty much anything rock, I’ve been getting into more rock sub genres and recently got into punk so nirvana is absolutely perfect for my taste.
@@orb2150txthat’s kinda what we do in music, it’s still respected if you change it and make it your own. If it’s more memorable when you play it a certain way then cool
Andy Kaufman faked his death in the ‘80s and ended up changing his name to Krist Novoselic and became the bassist for one of the biggest bands in the world.
Wtf
Crazy how similar they look😭
@@tamzinwatterott1134nice pfp
The name of the band was very well chosen. contains the word freedom, freedom from suffering, from the pressure of society that makes you a slave. and Kurt said "punk is about freedom." Since Nirvana also means freedom... freedom from suffering and the outside world... it also seems to me a perfect definition of punk music.
12:56 As a Croatian living in Canada this made me chuckle. Back in the day if you were the child of Balkan/Yugoslav parents and had any sort of issues, you weren’t getting a therapist, you were getting sent home.
Dear Marc, I’m not sure if you’ll ever read this but I’ve been listening to nirvana and weezer for years thanks to my dad and honestly these videos are so well detailed and researched that its really high quality and comes from the heart. It’s funny most people don’t even know the other drummers of Nirvana apart from Dave and Chad, and It’s also worth mentioning Kurt was a Roadie for the Melvins while they toured, and I find it pretty cool since I grew up in the Pacific Northwest and until the late 80s we didn’t really have any cool music releasing in our scene or any major bands coming to tour and I think Nirvana really changed that. Anyways I’m rambling but overall this channel is super underrated so keep up the good content
Alternate Title: The Origin of Rivers Cuomo
woah you got MCR history wayyyy wrong!
Kurt was like frozen in time at age thirteen mentally…. Very sad way to live not to mention health issues especially stomach problems couldnt have been easy… I have gastroparesis so I feel ya Kurt… shame you took yourself away man you had plenty to live for….
Ah yes nirvana the weezer of the 90’s
My favorite comment gets pinned in one week!
cool! another great video, you're really good at what you do. you keep things interesting and the presentation is always engaging. plus you have a really nice voice.
I don’t even want my comment pinned…
I just like your videos, (especially the nirvana ones and the ruler of everything video)
Are we going to have "The Nirvana talk?" Spring is here again...reproductive glands ANNNNNNNDDDDDD 🎵
Just picked up MTV Unplugged today so this is perfect timing
6:08 kurt chose the guitar. shows a picture of him with a bass
Bass guitar????? Reach ik
I remember hearing that the misogynistic atmosphere of Kirk's hometown inspired some of the band's feminist messages and songs (Polly etc)
Oh man, this video is fantastic
As someone who read Come As You Are and Michael Azarad's Biography on Kurt Cobain, this is a great breakdown of the early stages of the band
I may show this to people when I need them to know about the origins of Nirvana for whatever reason
One of the worlds most overrated band
The town i spent my adolescence in is just like aberdeen. The middle of nowhere with a single export that brings in every drug available. Except my town is in Wyoming and the main export is Coal instead of logging.
If Kurt lived, would Nirvana's reputation and fan base be as confused as Weezer's?
The answer to that is yes. A definite unqualified yes.
Love how nirvana still is a theme of conversation, his life is something shouldn't and won't be forget
Thank god, at last hair metal was done 😊
Nirvana became nirvana when rivers Cuomo became rivers cuomo
Weezer wasn’t even in it? It doesn’t even link to Hurley in the bio? Where is the weezer? I was promised weezer‼️
I really need sleep for work tomorrow... but a new MarcButEvil video about Nirvana takes priority
edit: it was definitely worth it!
Kind of crazy both Kurt Cobain and Bryan Danielson both came from Aberdeen, Washington
Kurt was the best riff writer ever...Frances Farmers breakdown and pre chorus is something special and the distortion is magical!
The popularity of Nirvana with its mix of furious and melodic rock, is far from waning today. To date, the group has sold millions of albums worldwide, including its three studio albums and various anthologies and compilations and entered in 2014, with all the merits, in the "Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
fatherlessness is the worst thing that can happen to a child outside of being molested
Marcbutevil is like the only music related channel that even if I don’t care about the artist being covered. I still watch the video. I enjoy the vids that much.
That means a lot, thanks!
please do your next video on how Bob Marley influenced and inspired the rock artists.
@@MarcButEvilcan you please do any videos on muse aswell?
i used to think that nirvana was a clothing brand
they made music to advertise the shirts
Poser
Filling out the Columbia House card was a right of passage back in the stone age. Paying them not so much.
Hey, you probably won't read this, but I've been watching this channel for a few months and I just wanted you to know that you are very good at making videos. I love you videos, I hope you keep it up as long as it's something *you* love.
Where’s the Pinkerton video?🤨
They played with Leaving Trains, James Moreland's band, who was also married to Courtney Love. Interesting...
Great video.
I love Nirvana and especially the Nevermind album
When Nevermind came out into the world, it was something spectacular. At that time, Guns N' Roses' Use Your Illusion I & II and Michael Jackson's Dangerous were trending, and Nevermind arrived to make it clear that music would never be the same again. Grunge left behind the outdated vision of overproduced rock, and taught everyone the importance of innovation, something that characterized the essence of Kurt Cobain
They said, “let’s be a band called Nirvana” the end. You don’t have the watch the video now and can watch a Weezer video instead
if the next video will not be a dark side of Hurley video I'm pulling Kurt Cobain.
nirvana became and then i came
Moar Weezer pls 😢
We were all Kurt at 15 just didn’t blow up 🤯
I grew up in Washington State. My Dad lived in Aberdeen for a very long time. I'm not going to pretend that I knew Kurt. I was 10 years younger than him. What I can tell you from experience is that Aberdeen is depressing. Aberdeen has a lot of old building's that look like they should fall apart at any moment. The sky is always grey and drugs are the primary past time for a lot of the citizens. Luckily I lived with my Mom most of the time and didn't have to spend every day there. I honestly wonder if Kurt would have been a happier person if he grew up somewhere else. IDK if that really matters but Aberdeen sure didn't help the guy.
Seriously Lol. I visited recently and not that it was a horrible town but it made me feel depressed with how dull and bleak everything is
I love how theres more info packed in a 20 minute marcbutevil video than multi hour documentaries
Fr 😂
I visited aberdeen recently and saw his house. It’s honestly a depressing town. It was kinda mesmerizing but also dull, bleak and sad…
I grew up in WA so it’s cool that they came from my state. It’s interesting listening to the music and being in the same environment
This is one of the best vídeos about nirvana I've had ever seen, you can tell the passion you have at taking about these kinda stuff, as a big nirvana fan I can tell you this is one of the best videos
Such a band that is still talked about today.Nirvana is really immortal.
Their daddies, " the Melvins" end of story.
The tally hall to weezer to nirvana pipeline is real
By doing a lot of heroine. Next question
It's OK to eat fish, cause they don't have any feeling.
Something in the Way
This is a great non-Weezer video. Subbed
Weezer had a lineup change? Sweet.
its so sad he never got to meet weezer
fr
@@laise5904 There's been rumors that Kurt may have at least heard Blue since they were label mates, but nothing has been substantiated.
@PrimerBand_ I think that's so weird for Rivers to think. I really think he would've loved being shout out on Susanne. More importantly, Kurt LOVED power pop stuff. He was an avid Beatles fan and loved four part harmonies. I could see him really vibing with Blue and especially Pinekrton.
I think Rivers' perception of "cool" bands is kinda painted by the guys in Pavement thinking they were sellouts.
I think you uploading has single handedly made me become eligible for joining dragonforce
melvins army
I just nirvana, i feel like nirvana
@smartavocado8319
Same here❤
KURT 1 MUSICIAN
What does this have to do with the Weezerverse
Curt Kobajn is verie kool
Amazing! Could you do a video on elliott smith?
Why does Kurt cobains dad look like Jeffery dahmer
aberdeen looks like a depressing town
When are you going to make a Pinkerton video?
WAKE UP, MARCBUTEVIL UPLOADED!!!L
Common marcbutevil w
When I first heard Nirvana, it changed the way I heard music forever. I was born in 1995... just a short while after Kurt was gone, though my parents were fans so I grew up with Nirvana in the background sometimes, but my dad was more into heavy metal and my mom liked Sheryl Crow and the Cranberries, and especially the Beatles and the Grateful Dead. Of all places, I first *really* heard Nirvana on this music video clip show called "Pop-Up Video", on the VH1 channel I think. I was like 13 or 14, and I heard Smells Like Teen Spirit for the first time and watched that music video. It opened my mind to what music *could* be.
I picked up the guitar because of Kurt, and I still play today, its my lifeline and my passion, and Kurt's playing just has something indescribable and raw that I chase with my playing endlessly. Nirvana was my gateway to incredible music and life experiences even. I found some of my favorite bands like Pixies, Iggy and the Stooges, the Germs, David Bowie, Black Flag, Melvins, Bikini Kill, Daniel Johnston, the Velvet Underground, and so many more. Kurt was my role model through high school, where I always struggled to fit in and be confident. Kurt's music just spoke to me personally.
Kurt inspired some of my favorite current bands and countless honest punk bands that I saw in basement shows in college. He inspired or paved the way for bands like Weezer (I think they had a Nirvana cover band at one point?), Green Day, Wavves, Jay Reatard, Ty Segall, and so many more I can't even begin.
Nirvana might not be my all time favorite band anymore, but they were my *first* all-time favorite band, and I'll never forget what Kurt did for my life, even if I was never on this Earth with him. They made me hear music as something more than just the backtrack to life, something important in itself.
NO WAY I NEED THE NEXT VIDEO NOW I WAS SO IMMERESED IN IT 😭😭
I never really learned this much about Kurt. Just knew he was from Aberdeen. As someone from sw Washington, who spent time on the coast south of Aberdeen at my dads, he definitely sounds like a lot of kids I knew growing up.
I like how i got the pewdiepie picture in the top right corner🙃
I see marcbutevil post and I jump out of my seat every time
thank you!
please do your next video on how Bob Marley influenced and inspired the rock artists.
Same dude!
dang i could learn from marc more than a 1 hour doc on national geogragphic could
a lot of people dont realize dave didnt come around until really late in the years. they went through drummers like dropping corpses during the plague. dave learned about the band through a tape that went through the underground in 89 and 90. that tape was the album bleach.
I interviewed Aaron Burkhardt in my movie The River. He told the story of how Kurt wrote "Something In The Way" on the bank of the Wishka River, under a bridge. The killer part is, I tried out for his band too.thesame band he started in 1989 when he was kicked out of Nirvana.
Attica
Next video the Beatles?
you should do something on Snot
if you wanna know what Nirvana was or never seen Nirvana Live go watch the Melviins
When I found out abt rock music by my parents I wanted to be the musician and when i heard nirvana it clicked in to my personality and i wanted to be Kurt or be as nirvana and I still play my guitar and I want to be Kurt when I’m in a band 🤘
I learned a lot of new things about Nirvana in this video, and I’ve seen a lot of things (video essays, documentaries, etc.) on the band and really, enjoyed this. As corny and stereotypical it might sound as me being a big fan if Nirvana, some things you noted about Kurt I can really relate to. I won’t go into much detail, and I’ll leave it off by saying I really appreciate your videos. I haven’t seen much on Kurt’s upbringing. Keep it up MarcButNice 😼
Yeah, this comment got pinned, its kind of a big deal 😏
Get owned, celery
@@JammerAmagood things come to those who wait...

@@celery. I like your attitude at least
@@skrillah6259 why reply if you have nothing to add?
THIS CHANNEL NEEDS MORE SUBSCRIBERS
"Kurt chose the guitar" Cuts to photo of Kurt playing bass...
FIRST
Nirvana went around the world, I remember when Smells like teen spirit came out, the members of nirvana changed everything, the boys did not wear tight clothing, they dressed in jeans and t-shirts, like any teenager and they did not seem to be super rock stars . In addition to the music and looks, there was an anarchic attitude that was irresistible and enormously attractive.
Nirvana forever!
Kurt was actually friends with Krist’s brother first
1: They chose the name
great video, very well made
**love this video..**
Only 780 views??? This videos too good for that
HOW ! Legend Rayford Faulkner TURNED !! into The Legend Rayford Faulkner
I like that for once someone spends a good portion of time talking about Krist Noveselic's contributions to Nirvana as he and Kurt Cobain were the founders and both made massive contributions to the band rather than treating Nirvana as the Kurt Cobain show and Noveselic as an afterthought
Two choices... a bike or a guitar...
Thats a bass....
Can you do one on blink-182 soon please?
need a part 2!!! this was perfection!
Epic
banger video. you’re maybe my favorite content creator right now. so many times i click on video essays for the topic, but you’re honestly just funny as fuck and i’d watch most anything you’d put out. look forward to the next one B)
