Everybody Love Our Town: A History of Grunge by Mark Yarm Paperback Book

The definitive word on grunge, revealing the never-before-told stories of the movement’s biggest bands.

Grunge, also known as the ‘Seattle Sound’, emerged from the Pacific North West in the early 1980s. The unexpected success of Nirvana’s hit single ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ in 1991 made grunge a household name overnight, and it became a significant music movement in America, alongside punk and hip-hop. In his book ‘Everybody Loves Our Town’, Mark Yarm shares the complete story through exclusive interviews.

He covers everything from the founding of influential bands like Soundgarden and the Melvins, the early triumphs of the Sub Pop record label, the rise of iconic acts like Nirvana and Pearl Jam, the media frenzy, the tragic loss of Kurt Cobain, and ultimately, the decline of the genre in the mid-to-late nineties.
