The 30th anniversary of Nirvana's third and final album In Utero will be marked with a series of deluxe editions, featuring 53 previously-unreleased tracks.
The unreleased material includes two full In Utero-era concerts - Live In Los Angeles (1993) and the band’s final Seattle performance, Live In Seattle (1994) - plus six bonus live tracks from Rome, Springfield, and New York.
The series of reissues will include a limited-edition 8-disc Super Deluxe vinyl box set, a 5CD set and a vinyl edition which comes with a bonus 10" of b-sides and bonus tracks.
Producer and engineer Jack Endino - who produced the band’s 1989 debut Bleach —reconstructed the live tracks from stereo soundboard tapes.
In Utero’s original twelve songs, along with five bonus tracks and B-sides, have been newly remastered from the original analog master stereo tapes by Bob Weston at Chicago Mastering Services — who assisted producer Steve Albini on the original sessions.
The reissues will be released on 27th October 2023. You can pre-order and pre-save from various outlets here.
The Super Deluxe editions will include bonus items that include a 48-page book with unseen photos, a reproduction of a Los Angeles gig poster, replicas of the promo Angel mobile, three replica gig flyers, all-access tour laminates and backstage passes.
