EP
Hormoaning
Hormoaning is a Nirvana EP that came out on 27 January 1992 through DGC Records. It was issued only in Australia and Japan, appearing in Australia first, with the Japanese release following on 5 February 1992 (Geffen Records also handled that edition).
The release was timed to coincide with the band's tour of those two countries. It arrived soon after Nevermind and before In Utero, so it catches Nirvana in the middle of their story. Its limited territories make it a curiosity for collectors and fans who like to follow the band beyond the main studio albums.
