“In Bloom” is a song by the American grunge band Nirvana. Written by frontman Kurt Cobain, the song addresses people outside of the underground music community who did not understand the band’s message.

Nirvana made its first music video for an early version of “In Bloom” in 1990, however the song did not appear on a commercial release until the release of the group’s second album, Nevermind, in 1991.

Nirvana first played the song the night before it was demoed. Bassist Krist Novoselic recalled that it, “originally sounded like a Bad Brains song. Then Kurt turned it into a pop song” Like many Nirvana songs, “In Bloom” shifts back and forth between quiet verses and loud choruses. “In Bloom” was released as the fourth single from Nevermind in November 1992.
