Los Angeles, California.
1991
Clem's POV

So we're in LA right now with Susan Silver, the manager of Soundgarden and Alice In Chains. We're here because we want to look for a deal with a major record lable to buy us out of our contract with Sub Pop. Susan pointed us in the direction of DGC Records. We're also finishing up our new album "Nevermind". Violet and I are still together and I found something that helps with my stomach pains, it's heroin, at first Violet was pissed that I shot up, but once she tried it she realized just how much it helps me and that it could help her to, at first we'd only do it once a week, but now we shoot up on a daily basis.

3rd Person POV

The band just signed to DGC Records and was recording the last few songs of their new album at Sound City Studios in Van Nuys, Los Angeles. It took two months before the recording sessions were finished, now all they needed to do was mix the album and it would be ready for releasing. The only problem was they couldn't find a mixer, so they hired Slayer mixer Andy Wallace. Andy did his job, but Clem and the other's were unsatisfied with the polished sound the mixer gave Nevermind, but released it nonetheless.

Clem's POV

Holy shit holy shit HOLY SHIT!!! We did it, we fucking did it, Nirvana is officially a mainstream band thanks to our song "Smells Like Teen Spirt" I got the name after a party, we got really fucked up on liquor, weed and dope and when I woke up the next morning I found "Clementine Cobain Smells Like Teen Spirit" spray painted on the wall. MTV called us the day after we released Nevermind and said they'd record our music video for Smells Like Teen Spirit. I'm so happy right now, I hope this feeling never goes away

Europe
3rd Person POV

The band is on tour in Europe, every show they go to sells out and everywhere they go a paparazzi and or television crew follows. Nevermind is selling 400,000 copies a week and that's just in the U.S

"UP NEXT WE HAVE NIRVANA WITH THEIR HIT "SMELLS LIKE TEEN SPIRIT"" Said the announcer, that was Clem Vi and Lou's cue to get on stage

Clem strummed her guitar followed by Louis beating his drums as Violet played the bass guitar

"Load up on guns. Bring your friends. It's fun to lose, and to pretend. She's overboard, and self assured. Oh no, I know a dirty word
