Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
- Artists:
- Nirvana »
Not so hot on the heels of 2004's With The Lights Out four-disc set comes another Nirvana compilation, this time (well, again actually) concentrating on rare material and demos.
Silver (or maybe Sliver, as we've read contrasting reports) is expected to include three previously unheard songs alongside its collection of 19 other odds and sods. Kurt Cobain's daughter, Frances Bean, is said to have been involved in the record, picking the title and artwork.
The manager of the Cobain estate, Peter Asher, has said that it is the intention of Courtney Love and himself to involve Frances Bean in as many Nirvana-related business decisions as possible. She has cool ideas, apparently.
DiS has no release date for the new compilation as yet. Sorry.

Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
Apparently it's a 19 track selection from the box set... plus three more unheard ones.
Well done Courtney on proving everyone right and exploiting the catalogue as soon as you got a chance. Until the wranglings finished, everything had been done pretty well - one video (which Kurt started himself), the MTV unplugged and one live album.
Now you're free to utterly take the piss. Congratulations.

I'm sure i've got most of it from the Outcesticide bootlegs. Now why won't they release the DVD from the box set seperately?
Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
surely anyone who's a big enough nirvana fan got all of this stuff years and years ago, as noiseaddict said, on the outcesticide bootlegs. the box set hardly had a thing i hadn't heard before, it was just slightly better quality. the sad thing is there probably just aren't that many great unreleased nirvana songs out there.
Re: Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
That DVD is pretty pointless.
Re: Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
The release of this CD is great, i really dont understand ALL of your negative thoughts. Every time a band not just Nirvana release "rear songs" or "a best of" or even a live cd you guys just slate it!
Well....how about if some peeps just made a site called
www.wankers-who-comment-on-dis.com and chat about how shit your comments are.
Coutney has the write to earn some money, doesnt she? If any of you was in her position you wouldnt be complaining!
Anyway its not raping the Nirvana back catalogue, its a chance for True Nirvana fans to get hold of the songs they never had a chance to listen to!
Also it just shows the avarge age on this site!! You guys mist out on the hole Nirvana thing and got caught in the PoP/Punk Rock stage!!
Oh by the way.....how cool is it to be you?? i Bet you are all cool man!!
So get a life

Re: Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
What the fuck?
Most, if not all, Nirvana fans have got this already. The three 'exclusives' are a sorry excuse for another compilation.
I admit that the boxset was quite expensive, but why not release this in conjunction with the set? It gives fans an option then. This is exploitation, pure and simple. It's making monkeys out of these 'true Nirvana fans'.
I really hope Courtney makes some money, though; what else is she gonna use to get her fix once she falls from the wagon again?
And also, what the fuck does age have to do with anything? A 15-year-old newcomer to Nirvana knows when they're being ripped off just as well as a 30 year old who was there from the start.

Re: Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
I am 31 years old. I loved Nirvana, I learnt to play guitar by learning the songs.
I bought the box set. Yes I know, amazing rip off.
I stand by what I said. It disgusts me.

According to another news source:
"On November 1, DGC will unveil a twenty-two-track compilation titled Sliver: The Best of the Box, featuring three unreleased songs and a chunk from 2004's With the Lights Out box set. "
What a monumental rip. You can't justify this. The big record companies bring illegal file sharing on themselves. I didn't buy the 'Greatest Hits' for 'You Know You're Right' and I won't buy this. It's just an insult. I spend a fortune on music but I'm not as mindless as DGC clearly thinks.

All I need to say is that David Geffen's favorite ever artist is Lisa Minelli.
Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
Im not a bootlog fan! In fact Nirvana hated bootlegers. i would say the people who released the bootlegs are to blame! How can you release bootlegs and claim all or most of the money from selling them. If i was an artist and saw somone like (lest say Dis) selling bootlegs of my songs i would be pissed mad at Dis for doing so.
Ok, so they will release another box set on 1st Nov with a big chunk of 2004's box set, but what you dont realise is that probably the songs released again will have different lyrics or structure to them, making the song sound always different to the originals!! That sounds geeky but so? to me its interesting....
Anyway, il buy it!! and cant wait for it! Oh the dvd from the first box set was wikid! everything i expected it to be.Although it could of had more stuff like interviews!
I love Lisa Minelli!

i'm not a nirvana fan, but my god what a rip off.
if courtney/dgc/whoever really wanted 'the fans' to hear these three (THREE for fucks sake) new songs then why not stick them online for 99p a go?

Re: Demo Nirvana: 22-track compilation due
of course Nirvana hated the bootleggers. because they were a bunch of money-grabbing cynics.
for all their talk about the punk ethic and DIY and all that nonsense, they were just another big business metal band... except without the tunes.
actual artists don't give two shits about bootlegging (aside from the sound quality issue) because they realise that its all about getting the music out there.
while on the subject of Norvana and money... isn't it time that grinning dickweed Grohl gave The Posies the royalties they're owed since he's been copping their schtick for best part of a decade??

I don't care about the ripping off, you guys seem to have missed that Frances Bean is responsible for the title and artwork! It's probably called "Silver" because it's covered in glitter, pasta shells and PVA glue! (in)Court-ney's lost it...even more than before I mean...er...

Mm, youv all gone mad! it seems you people want everything for free, thats fare enough! Maybe coz your jobs stink and you dont get enough money and you stil have to visit mummy & Daddy on a daily basis to get your pocket money! And shearing a house or flat with 10 people isnt realy much of a good idea either coz you all cram together with your pathetic idealistic vues on how your getting ripped off by "Nirvana" or whoever you choose to hate. I wonder who its going to be next week?
And Nirvana/Courtney/Geffen can go and rip off who they like for all i care.....its their job! have you heard of a job before? Its that thing where you go and do whatever you do to earn money to LIVE!! LIVE, you stil remember that word dont you? I guess so, seing as you all wanna go get shit faced at the end of the week with the pocket money mummy and daddy gave to you! Or you might just have a JOB to EARN MONEY
I tell you what, how about this. You go tell your boss you wanna work for free!! how noble of you! Your boss will luve you so much he will be rubbing his hans to the bank!! and maybe you can convince all your work mates to do the same!! So the company wont be getting ripped off by paying your sorry arse to work!!
Il be expecting a full report by Monday morning on Dis!
Have a good wknd and dont spend too much at the Bars and Clubs!!
Lisa Minelli is my Gal!!
P.S mdw4001 stop being so cheep!! 99p a track!! what a laugh!!

it's a fucking ripoff. No ifs or buts. And all the tracks have been released on bootlegs anyway.
I got the box set from the US for $27, and any more than than £20 would've been a rip off in my book. the DVD was GASH.
I wouldn't mind so much, but Courtney's job seems to be ripping off her dead husbands leftovers to fund her drug habit. Dead men can't block release schedules.

By the way evilelvis, seriously!! a bootleg is just a cheap way of showing you are into music!!
And for those who said that real musicians dont sell their music WRONG!! YOU ARE SO WRONG!
A bit of music history for those who know it all!! (most of the Dis population)
back in the 1890's or earlyer black musicians would have to go out and play at night in the clubs to gather as much cash as they could for them and thier familys to survive!! playing music was a way out to talk about them being slaves to the white in the USA back in those days!!
So, if you think a musician is so brainless to state that he doesnt wish to sell his music coz its wrong its obvious that he aint got the choonz in the first place you dum idiots!! As well, he probably has got such an ego he thinks its good!!
Plz, stop it with these mindless discussions about bands ripping you off!!
Once again, Lisa Minelli is a godess!!

A bootleg is cheap? hell no. You have no idea what a bootleg is. A bootleg is an illegal release of rare music that was often overpriced and on CD for about £15 or LP for about £12 (or tape for £5) in the 80's and 90's. Now they're all MP3's.
The proof that the CD is a rip off is obvious : there are tons of Nirvana tracks that were on compilations that weren't on the box set - no doubt they're being hoarded for another CD in a bit.
Coming from you, saying I make no sense isn't just a compliment, it proves my argument.

what do you mean, "LIKE YOU"?
"artistically redundant"? there's no point to this record. no point at all. It's a compilation of stuff not good enough to release when it was recorded, along with some extra stuff to make the completist part with their money.
rite? meen? your? I hate to be a grammar Nazi, but you are illiterate. You may have to look that up to find out what it means. I bet you're fourteen or so.
