Critics often default to breathless hyperbole when discussing Nirvana’s Nevermind. Can you blame them?

The band’s 1991 sophomore album single-handedly revolutionized rock music at the dawn of a new decade, a zeitgeist shift whose scale has not been matched in the decades since. It distilled a generation’s worth of suburban ennui and despair into a 42-minute punk-pop blitzkrieg, turning bandleader Kurt Cobain into first a prophet and later a martyr. It also marked a windfall for every department store with an excess stock of oversized flannel shirts.

Strip away the exhausting “legacy” discourse, though, and a more modest, fundamental truth remains: Nevermind is a flawless display of economical songwriting and airtight hooks, executed with militaristic precision and blunt-force aggression. Its accolades were inevitable; its superlatives are facts.

Few albums are more deserving of a deluxe reissue than Nevermind. Unfortunately, the 30th-anniversary “super deluxe” edition doesn’t add much to the group’s towering mythology. The hulking box set pairs the newly remastered album with previously unreleased footage from four concerts on the Nevermind tour: Nov. 25, 1991, in Amsterdam; Dec. 28, 1991, in Del Mar, Calif.; Feb. 1, 1992, in Melbourne, Australia; and Feb. 19, 1992, in Tokyo.
