We recently covered "On A Plain" in honor of the 20th anniversary of Nevermind. Have a listen and let us know what you think (it's titled "Chariots On A Plain Of Fire"). If you like, check out our other songs and videos. Thanks!
anybody who really understands nirvana knows that kurt cobain was a punk rocker at heart and in spirit! nirvana and pennywise definitely 2 of the best bands of the 90s!
i hate nervana but my love for pennywise makes me like this cover. pennywise has been and seems like will always be my fav band, and im not even into punk, i like pennywise, autority zero, some bad religion, but most punk top me sucks, to bitchy, unlike pennywise who has such a upbeat message, with music that just kicks ass and holds its own to this day, long live PW, sad to see the singer change...i hope this new guy from ignite can keep the vibe alive
This cover is completely badass despite what many of you dumbasses say. First off, the video does it no justice. It would be completely badass actually hearing this at the show. Second, Pennywise covering a nirvana song, how much sicker does it get than that?
You sure like K's don't you? You even put one in 'no'.
His birth name is actually Kurt Cobain. He became known as Kurdt Cobain or Kurt Kobain because people were always spelling it wrong and he didn't care.
I really like Pennywise, but one time I saw them right after Curt Cobain died and Jim said to the audience, "Anyone have some Curt Cobain jokes?" I thought that was pretty cold but oh well what can ya do.
Because they were really well received by major record labels and mainstream radio stations. (Not that there's anything wrong with that,) and alot of punk and hardcore bands from Pennywise's era tend to not like Nirvana. I'll give them credit for recognizing great music though, and not rejecting it and calling them sellouts. So yea, cool all around.
The only reason Nirvana is considered "Grunge" is because they were a band in the Seattle area during that time. True, they do have a 'grunge' sound, but they were a very punk band. In fact, Kurt's first show ever was Black Flag and he wanted to start a punk band, which later became Nirvana.

Cabain hitting notes...hehe..thats some funny shite! Cobain was admittadly one of the worst guitar players and singers out there...kinda busy nodding off on the needle...
Nirvana sucks? ok who do you know that was addicted to heroin, was pretty much homeless, and didn't want to be famous but yet still became famous? Who? c'mon tell me!
The point of a cover isn't to sound just like the band that first performed it...that defeats the purpose. I respect peeps who like to change things up a bit.
the song is freakin awesome. but i think those guys are too cocky. a better cover of that song would involve some energy coming straight from the heart.
im a pretty big nirvana fan and i think this rocks you cant expect it to sound exactly like kurt and they havnt killed the song unlike some covers ive heard so i think theyve done pretty well also its live so you have to allow for a bit of distortion
you don't have to cover it in exact the nirvana style, they make there own style of it, and i think its very good. so everyone who says this is bad music, they probably listen to hiphop. and that fat guitar player has an good novoselic sound, but than punk :)
who cares if he can't sing like cobain... you should see that as a tribute! Fucking sick of close minded pricks... I would be proud if a great punk band covered one of my song even if the signer can't sing well. It's punk godammit not disco!
If you like pennywise then u should be open to the fact that they like nirvana.. and maybe u should realize that this is a sweet fucking song and that every person is going to cover a song differently. just a thought dude
hey shut up pennywise did a great job covering that song and i'm sure kurt would of been proud, fuck off and go back to downloading your brittney spears songs on itunes queers
when my bro went n seen them he said the singer said that nirvana are the best fuckin band in the world and then they played a nirvana cover.sounds like a band with taste who r jus playin stuff they truely enjoy.and it dont sound awful either pennywise rock!ps.kurt loved fast punk thrash stlyes that sounded similar 2 this eg mdc not that it sounds like them or anything i duno its good fuck off im tired im goin 2 bed .
I like this nirvana song. It´s interesting that many punk bands does this nirvana cover, even my band =P. And this is not crap, I have seen worst territorial pissings covers...
Not great. Pennywise isn't loose enough to know how to rock out with punk noise like this
