The success of Nevermind<\/strong> was completely unexpected: the label DGC<\/strong> initially expected to sell 250,000 copies<\/strong>. In January 1992<\/strong>, the album knocked Michael Jackson\u2019s Dangerous<\/strong> off the top of the Billboard chart. This meteoric rise turned alternative rock into a mass phenomenon and marked the end of the hair metal<\/strong> era. Kurt Cobain, deeply uncomfortable with fame, experienced this exposure as torture.<\/p>\nDeath and Legacy<\/h2>\n
