Search - Nirvana 2002 :: Recordings 89-91

Before there was a Swedish Death Metal scene - let alone a signature sound - Nirvana 2002 was helping to create both. Formed in the late '80s by Orvar Säfström, who would later join Entombed, N2K was a grinding revelation that infused punk's spirit and energy into metal much more cohesively than the era's thrash crossover merchants did. The band's demos and rehearsal tapes became hot commodities on the tape trading circuit though the band split by 1991. Recordings 89-91 almost two decades overdue, has nearly everything Nirvana 2002 ever put to tape. It is not just a nostalgic time capsule from the past, but a glimpse at what the future would hold, and was definitely worth the wait.
