Music: Newswire: Nirvana baby penis rejected by Facebook (and did you see the track listing for this Nevermind reissue?!)

Jul 23, 2011 Music Avenue

Controversy

Nasty Little Man, the publicity company hired by all of your favorite bands (Radiohead, Beastie Boys, Arcade Fire), apparently tried to post a thumbnail of the cover of Nirvana’s 20-year-old Nevermind to Facebook, which violated Facebook’s terms of service with regard to nudity. So you can all feel safe at night now.

IN RELATED NEWS: Did you see the crazy track list for the 20th-anniversary edition of Nevermind? Man oh man, there are Deluxe and Super Deluxe editions. Let’s concern ourselves with the latter, which spans four CDs (remember those?) and a DVD. Not only does it feature the demos that Cobain-heads have already heard, plus BBC recordings and a live concert plus B-sides, but it will include the Devonshire Mixes, which is apparently producer Butch Vig’s mix, prior to the polish the album received from mixer Andy Wallace. Also: 90-page book, yadda yadda. But Butch Vig mix — weird, right? Or maybe no different than the new Donnie Darko Blu-ray, with the theatrical and director’s cuts… Or is this more like Star Wars? It’s hard to say. But in any case, don’t try to post pictures of the iconic baby-wang album cover to Facebook, because they will shut your ass down. (The new-and-improved(?) Nevermind comes out Sept. 20.)
