smells like almost teen spirit



Last week marked the 15th anniversary rock icon Kurt Cobain's tragic death. Lots of music blogs ran tributes, but this one over at Pitchfork was particularly fun, showcasing various covers of Nirvana's most enduring song, "Smells Like Teen Spirit": Kurt Cobain R.I.P.: April 5, 1994.

Among the many different versions of the song, this one particularly sticks out: 11 Year Old Nirvana Fan. An Asian kid doing what Asian kids do best: rocking your face off with his badass musical skills. The kid, Sungha Jung, totally kills with that guitar, and offers his own unique acoustic take on the song. Insane. (Thanks, Minghan.)
