Music: Nevermind - Twenty Years On by Tom

After a hectic couple of weeks, the music section managed a record week of sales. Those freshers just went wild for some of the great CDs and DVDs on show! A big thank you goes out to all the members of staff who helped to keep the shelves stocked up.

Three weeks on from it's formation, the classic albums section is still going strong. Possibly the best on show is Nirvana's 1991 seminal collection Nevermind, which was one of the most important albums of the '90s, as it pulled troubled adolescents away from the dross of Eighties New Romantics. Nirvana's second release has been at the forefront of music recently, as it's 20th anniversary has been celebrated throughout the industry. These appraisals have applauded Nevermind for having begun the first wave of grunge music, credited it for instigating the alternative rock movement, and the record has thus been regarded as one of the greatest rock albums of all time. Come and get it whilst you still can.



Another truly great album still on sale is New Order's 1987 offering Substance, which is filled with some of the finest songs that were ever on show in The Hacienda years. In addition, we can let you decide whether you think The Bends is Radiohead's greatest album, providing stiff competition for critically acclaimed OK Computer. Both albums are currently available in store.

All albums mentioned are found in our 'Classic Albums' section, and all are priced at £2.99.


Elsewhere, for the purists amongst you, there is now a select few rare and much-vaunted VHS on display on the shop floor. Such cult horrors as 'An American Werewolf in Paris' and 'The Fog' can be found for just 99p, but perhaps the best offer comes in the form of classic Japanese anime series 'Mobile Suit Gundam'.



We are lucky enough to have the first four editions in stock, and all are priced at £1.99 each, or £4.99 for the lot. Bargain!
