Nirvana "Sliver" rarities compilation information

Some more information has surfaced regarding the upcoming rarities compilation from influential act, Nirvana. The release, titled Sliver: The Best of the Box follows last year's
release of With the Lights Out and is due out November 1st via Geffen. The album is the first with involvement from the daughter of the late singer, Kurt Cobain. The now thirteen-year old Frances Bean Cobain was involved in the track and artwork selection for the release.

While the bulk of the material comes from With the Lights Out, the album features three previously unreleased tracks: "Spank Thru" from the 1985 Fecal Matter demo tape, the 1990 studio outtake "Sappy" and a pre-Nevermind rehearsal recording of "Come as You Are."

Since the suicide of Cobain in 1994, a number of releases have been release posthumously, including Greatest Hits, the aforementioned With the Lights Out and the live recording, From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah.
