Spencer Elden, the kid on the cover of Nevermind, is now 19. He’s a starving artist – of course he is – and, in this candid three-minute interview, admits, “Everyone out there in the world has seen my penis.”
In the short piece, Elden explains how the photo shoot went down for the iconic album cover, as well as his own art and style. It’s a good way to spend a few minutes.

Greetings. I'm originally from Milwaukee, WI, but currently living in Madison. I earned a poli-sci degree from UW-Madison in December 2008 and now trying to figure out what to do...
Anyhow I'm an aspiring music critic, having been published in the Badger Herald (UW's premier student paper) and the London-based blog The Line of Best Fit.
You can follow me on twitter (@_bandnames) where you can find me throwing out silly names for potential bands, as well as other thoughts on life - most of it, music-related.
