"Smells Like Teen Spirit" is the monumental lead single from Nirvana’s second studio album, Nevermind (1991). Written by Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic, and Dave Grohl, the track unexpectedly catapulted the Seattle trio into global superstardom, effectively driving alternative rock and grunge into the mainstream culture.

This specific release features the album edit on Side A, produced by Butch Vig. Side B contains two iconic, heavy tracks: "Even In His Youth" and "Aneurysm", both produced and engineered by Craig Montgomery. These B-sides were highly sought after by fans at the time, capturing the band's raw, unvarnished energy outside of the main album's polished production. The artwork features a blurred portrait of the band against a distinct water-pattern backdrop, matching the visual aesthetic of the Nevermind era.
