Nirvana was a seminal grunge band formed in Aberdeen, Washington in the late 1980s consisting of Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl. They released three influential albums - Bleach, Nevermind, and In Utero - that helped popularize the alternative rock and grunge genres in the early 1990s. Kurt Cobain, the band's lead singer and songwriter, struggled with depression and drug addiction and was found dead of an apparent suicide in 1994 at the age of 27, leaving a legacy as one of rock's most iconic frontmen.
