A Grunge Band From Seattle that consists of Krist Novoselic (bassist) Dave Grohl (Drummer and Backup Vocalist) And Kurt Cobain (Guitarist and Vocalist). The band also had Jason Everman as rhythm Guitarist (that didn't last long) and Chad Channing as the old drummer. They made the albums Bleach (my favourite), Nevermind, Incesticide And In Utero.

People (mainly Generation X that is) who grew up listening to Nirvana (the most famous grunge band in music history) during the 1990s.

Person 1: Man, what is taking her so long in the shower?
Person 2: Dude, don't worry about it, she's probably just discovered shower nirvana.
