Sonic Youth man pens notes for Nirvana box set

Thurston Moore has written the sleeve notes for Nirvana's rarities box set, With The Lights Out, which features 68 unreleased tracks and a DVD, out on 22 November.

Sonic Youth front man Thurston Moore has written the sleeve notes for the forthcoming long long long awaited rarities box set from Nirvana. It's a fitting tribute for the band, and especially the late Kurt Cobain, given how big a fan he was of Moore's band.

The box set will feature no less than 68 previously unreleased tracks, plus a DVD featuring band home movies, live footage and twenty videos. A source told NME: "I've seen some of the footage and it's amazing stuff. There's a video of them performing at a friend's party with Kurt reading lyrics off a sheet of paper on the wall, footage of them covering 'Seasons In The Sun' in a studio with Kurt on drums and lots of other great stuff."

The box set, called 'With The Lights Out', is released on 22 Nov
