Nirvana‘s Nevermind is set for a multi-format rerelease to commemorate its 20th anniversary.

The seminal record, originally released in September 1991, will be repackaged in a variety of ways. The four-CD and one-DVD ‘super deluxe’ edition will include a raft of previously unheard material, along with a remastered version of the original record.

Rereleases tend to be a bit of a rip-off – but in this case there seem to be more than enough new bits and pieces to justify the (presumably astronomical) asking price. Details below.
