  • Nirvana W Latach 80
    seria Z WEHIKUŁEM, tom I: 80s AGAIN! MONOGRAFIA POŚWIĘCONA LATOM 80. XX WIEKU redakcja: Aneta Jabłońska i Mariusz Koryciński Pewne prawa zastrzeżone | Klub Filmowy im. Jolanty Słobodzian | Warszawa 2017 ISBN (wersja elektroniczna): 978-83-64111-79-2 ISBN (wersja drukowana): 978-83-64111-75-4 ABSTRAKT | Paweł Jaskulski w artykule Początki nicości. Nirvana w latach 80. opisuje mniej znany okres istnienia Nirvany. Wprowadzając w tematykę, zastanawia się nad recepcją muzyki rockowej, postrzeganej przez niektórych jako gorszy rodzaj sztuki; przedstawia także narodziny grunge’u – nurtu, który powstał w Stanach Zjednoczonych właśnie w latach 80. XX wieku. Zarysowuje również historię pierwszych – przygotowywanych w chałupniczych warunkach – sesji nagraniowych; genezę debiutanckiej płyty oraz ulubione piosenki Kurta Cobaina. Jaskulski analizuje następnie dokonania Cobaina i Krisa Novoselica z tamtej dekady, wyróżniając następujące obszary refleksji: strategię związaną z nazewnictwem utworów zespołu, sposób kontaktu zespołu z jego odbiorcami oraz autokreację lidera grupy. Pojawia się także wątek płyty Nevermind, pochodzącej wprawdzie z 1991 roku, stanowiącej jednak podsumowanie działalności zespołu z poprzedniej dekady.
