Nirvana "Smells Like Teen Spirit" Songfacts
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" is a song by American rock band Nirvana. It is the opening track and lead single from Nirvana's 1991 second album, 'Nevermind'. The unexpected success of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" propelled Nirvana's 'Nevermind' to the top of several albums charts at the start of 1992, an event often marked as the point when grunge entered the mainstream

Smells Like Teen Spirit" was written following Nirvana's first recording sessions with producer Butch Vig in 1990. Kurt Cobain began writing "Smells Like Teen Spirit" a few weeks before recording NIrvana's second album, Nevermind, in 1991. Cobain said it was an attempt to write a song in the style of the Pixies, a band he admired:

I was trying to write the ultimate pop song. I was basically trying to rip off the Pixies. I have to admit it. When I heard the Pixies for the first time, I connected with that band so heavily that I should have been in that band—or at least a Pixies cover band. We used their sense of dynamics, being soft and quiet and then loud and hard.

"Smells Like Teen Spirit" is the only song on Nevermind to credit all three Nirvana band members as writers.
