brian eno compiled that no new wave thing.
lydia lunch was part of the movement.
she recorded a song with sonic youth (and with thurston moore) - death valley 69.
sonic youth brought nirvana to DGC and toured with them.

The relation between Eno and Nirvana is that of opposites. Eno is a pure aesthete who, while inspired by the urgency of rock, abstracts everything and never fully shows his hand. Cobain, though he was into all manner of artiness, expressed himself with his heart on his sleeve. Eno's all about oblique strategies, looking at the world askance and bemused; Nirvana were aiming for direct communication -- Cobain stares at you, or at his own reflection, and howls.

3 years pass...

Eno made an album called My Life In The Bush of Ghosts. Since the cessation of his life, Cobain's ghost has been represented by the band Bush, who are a witless bag of piss.

In some alternate universe, Eno produced Cobain's fourth solo album, released in 2003. It was terrible.
