Although,for centuries around centuries,known by many as core tennets of Hinduism and Budhism, the religious conotation of the word has been adultered for many westerns since the rise to fame of an overrated band whose leader,Kurt Cobain,did a piruete while holding a gun,with laughable results (which,in an irony omnipresent throughout the same culture's history,only perpetuated his status as an idol of mindless,uninteresting teens who haven't heard the true originators of Grunge during the sixties and as such deem him an actually original "artist").Therefore,remain aware of the context in which you use the noun,which may be the difference between many considering you respectable or a complete retard.

Get the Nirvana mug.noun: A Seattle-based band that came to the forefront of popular music with it's 1991 smash-hit Smells Like Teen Spirit. The song became so huge that Kurt Cobain himself began to hate the song and the fame it brought him. Throughout the band's lifespan, Cobain and bassist Krist Novoselic were the core members, going through a few drummers before joining up with Dave Grohl before recording Nevermind, and sticking with Grohl for the rest of the band's career. The group was disbanded in 1994 after Cobain's death, an apparent suicide, though to this day there are many people who believe Cobain was murdered.

Get the Nirvana mug.One of the best bands known to man. It was grunge back in the late 80's and early 90's. The lead singer was Kurt Cobain, and they were from Seattle, and most of everybody enjoyed their music. Their music was pretty pointless, and didn't make any sense in most songs. But it was very enjoyable. Still today people mourn over Kurt Cobain's suicide(April 5th, 1994)
