I’ve certainly been responsible for playing more than a few NIRVANA covers over the years, albeit ones that no one has heard in a public setting since probably the late 1990s. That said, I’m always interested in hearing others put their stamp on one of my favorite bands, and I’ve come across plenty – many good, many bad. Today comes a pretty good one courtesy of the GRAVEL KINGS, a Florida band with a new EP in the pipeline. Check out “Come As You Are” below, and look for LURE to hit the streets on September 9, 2016.

“About a year ago we learned how to play it our way while on a Nirvana kick and just always kept it around. It’s fun to jam on, and it surprises the audience. Plus, given Nirvana’s history of not giving a shit, we feel like we have a free pass to mess up on stage for at least one song now.”GRAVEL KINGS’ Vocalist Zack Jones, to PopMatters
