Sonic Highways is the eighth studio album by the American rock band Foo Fighters.
 It was produced by Butch Vig and was released on November 10, 2014, on RCA Records.
 In writing the album's eight songs, singer and guitarist Dave Grohl traveled to eight cities across the United States to conduct interviews with musicians, recording engineers, record producers, and other individuals discussing each city's musical history, which he used as inspiration for the songs' lyrics.
 The band and Vig then traveled to a different recording location in each city to record the songs.
 Each track features contributions from one or more musicians with ties to that city's musical history.
 The process was filmed for a companion television series, "", which was broadcast on HBO in the months surrounding the album's release.

Incesticide is a compilation album by the American grunge band Nirvana.
 It consists of their 1990 non-album single "Sliver", B-sides, demos, outtakes, covers, and radio broadcast recordings.
 At the time, the majority of the material on "Incesticide" was circulating within fan communities (albeit in lower quality).
 It was widely reported in the music press that the band wanted to offer fans a higher-quality alternative, but in the book "Cobain Unseen", Charles R. Cross writes that Kurt Cobain agreed to the release of this compilation because he was allowed complete control over the album's artwork.
 The album was released on December 14, 1992 in Europe, and December 15, 1992 in the United States and eventually reached number 39 on the "Billboard" 200.
 Since the songs were recorded in different sessions and some were recorded when Nirvana did not have a stable formation, the album includes recordings by four different drummers: Chad Channing, Dan Peters, Dale Crover, and Dave Grohl.
