Nirvana is one of those bands that are almost impossible to cover. Not only are they iconic, but they are perfect within the conventions of their genre, heck, they established the rules and then tore them down themselves. So to make a cover work, you need to go in a different but equally intense direction.That’s why EMA’s Endless Nameless version was the only endurable cover on SPIN’s Nevermind tribute.

This version of Heart-Shaped Box by Kawehi is another rare cover that works very well for me. 

Many, many committed Nirvana fans will hate this, too. Including my teenage self. The mix of genres, especially guitar vs. synth mixes, are a sacrilege to some.Pierre Bourdieu told you so.
