La Dispute covers Nirvana and that alone is big news but just wait to hear the rest. The cover is part of the second Nirvana tribute record organized by Robotic Empire under the name Whatever Nevermind. Bands like Circa Survive, Nothing, Young Widows and others had the pleasure commemorating one of the greatest grunge bands of our time.

I did listen to this cover when it actually came out but I was not sure what to think of it. Now a month later I am ready to drop a few lines about it. At fist I was not impressed at all so I quickly forgot about it. But for some reason it kept popping in my news feed so after I listened to it few times I grew fond of the cover. I thought it sound almost identical to the original but I had fooled myself. So try approaching La Dispute's work with an open mind and see how it feels.
