Nirvana / Foo Fighters Gift for Fans | Music Tube Map Art Print

In short: A Nirvana discography tube map art print that draws every credited musician as a tube line, with Bleach, Nevermind and In Utero as the stations where those lines converge. A considered gift for Nirvana fans and music lovers, ready to frame and give. Giclée on 230gsm textured matte fine art paper, archival and acid-free. Available in A2 or A1 (US sizing 24x18in and 36x24in), unframed or in a black wooden frame. Hand-researched and designed by me in East Sussex. I designed this Nirvana discography map so every credited musician runs as their own named line, calling at each studio album they played on, drawn in the style of a classic tube map. The stations run chronologically from the Sub Pop debut Bleach, through the breakthrough Nevermind, to the raw In Utero, and each musician's line weaves between the records they played on. It is wall art for fans who know every track, and a ready-made gift for anyone who came in through the singles. Why this Nirvana discography tube map art makes a gift fans keep If you are buying for a Nirvana fan, this goes past the obvious present. I research every map by hand, checking release dates and running order so the sequence is right, which lets the person receiving it follow the band's short, era-defining run. It makes a birthday or Christmas gift for the Nirvana fan in your life, the kind of present that gets framed and kept rather than opened once and shelved. Contributing musicians on the map Kurt Cobain and Krist Novoselic run across all three studio albums, with Dave Grohl joining on drums from Nevermind in 1991 onward, after Chad Channing's drums on the 1989 debut Bleach. Pat Smear appears as touring guitarist on the In Utero era, a line that later reappears across nine Foo Fighters studio albums, marking the point where Nirvana's story connects directly into Dave Grohl's next band.
