Dave Grohl Talks Nirvana's Early Nevermind Studio Experience

(Classic Rock) Dave Grohl features in a new clip showcasing documentary The Smart Studios Story. The film focuses on producer Butch Vig's punk studio which eventually morphed into a major-label recording hub with the explosion of grunge in the early 90s.

In the short clip premiered by Pitchfork, Grohl briefly chats about Nirvana's early Nevermind demos which were cut at the Seattle venue between April 2-6, 1990, under the watchful eye of Vig.

He says: "When I joined the band, they had this demo that sounded amazing - it sounded huge. It sounded different than the things they had done before. Everyone talked about Butch."

Other artists to feature in the documentary include Garbage's Shirley Manson and Billy Corgan and Jimmy Chamberlin from Smashing Pumpkins. Read more and watch the Grohl clip here.
