A Time Magazine Best Book of 2011, Featuring Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, Mudhoney and more!Twenty years after the release of Nirvanas landmark album Nevermind comes Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge, the definitive word on the grunge era, straight from the mouths of those at the center of it all.In 1986, fledgling Seattle label C/Z Records released Deep Six, a compilation featuring a halfdozen local bands: Soundgarden, Green River, Melvins, Malfunkshun, the UMen and Skin Yard. Though it sold miserably, the record made music history by documenting a burgeoning regional sound, the raw fusion of heavy metal and punk rock that we now know as grunge. But it wasnt until five years later, with the seemingly overnight success of Nirvanas Smells Like Teen Spirit, that grunge became a household word and Seattle ground zero for the nineties alternativerock explosion.Everybody Loves Our Town captures the grunge era in the words of the musicians, producers, managers, record executives, video directors, photographers, journalists, publicists, club owners, roadies, scenesters and hangerson who lived through it. The book tells the whole story: from the founding of the Deep Six bands to the worldwide success of grunges big four (Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains); from the rise of Seattles cashpoor, hyperich indie label Sub Pop to the majorlabel feeding frenzy that overtook the Pacific Northwest; from the simple joys of making noise at basement parties and tiny rock clubs to the tragic, lonely deaths of superstars Kurt Cobain and Layne Staley.Drawn from more than 250 new interviewswith members of Nirvana, Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, Screaming Trees, Hole, Melvins, Mudhoney, Green River, Mother Love Bone, Temple of the Dog, Mad Season, L7, Babes in Toyland, 7 Year Bitch, TAD, the UMen, Candlebox and many moreand featuring previously untold stories and neverbeforepublished photographs, Everybody Loves Our Town is at once a moving, funny, lurid, and hugely insightful portrait of an extraordinary musical era.
