The Vaselines were one of several obscure bands to benefit from name-dropping on the part of Kurt Cobain during the height of Nirvana's popularity in the 1990s. (In fact, Nirvana covered the Vaselines' songs "Molly's Lips," "Son of a Gun," and "Jesus Don't Want Me for a Sunbeam.") The short-lived Scottish duo released a few scattered singles and one album's worth of jangly, shambolic guitar pop packed with infectious, childlike melodies that had a surprisingly profound effect on Cobain's songwriting. Founding member Eugene Kelly went on to form Eugenius following the Vaselines' break-up in 1987.
