I have been a fan since the early days of Cobain's band. I lost them at Bloom (but I found a bootleg CD of the live show), saw them on February 24, 1994, in Milan. A few months before it all ended. Bleach; dark and seminal; Nevermind; a masterpiece, a manifesto of the broken generation to which I belong, the x.....; In Utero; the unfiltered end of the intense Nirvana experience. Incesticide; the Unplugged NY, the first demo, "You Know You're Right" stunning and posthumous (I was happy, as if it were a new single), significant chapters marking the beginning and end of the bomb (for those in their twenties at the time like me) and the genius of Kurt Cobain and his Nirvana. I still feel the same love for their incredibly relevant music in this dark turn taken by the planet, and my listening habits have undoubtedly evolved, changed. But now that Pavement is ending, following Sunny Day Real Estate, I put on In Utero. I haven't listened to it in a while and I turn up the volume, relighting the joint, "Serve the Servant" has started, it’s 11:20 PM on February 21, 2022.... but. A melancholic nostalgia (50 years ..... mid-life crisis, quoting Faith No More....), takes me back to the early part of the '90s..... good night.
