In 1992, grunge finally reached the mainstream. Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" became a new anthem for the youth of the time. Pearl Jam also crossed over to a pop audience with 'Ten'. The Red Hot Chili Peppers broke through with "Under The Bridge". Various new releases fused different genres. These included : "Jump Around" (House of Pain); "Set Adrift On Memory Bliss" (P.M. Dawn) and Arrested Development.
