I remember hearing Kurt say in an interview that In Utero was the sound he always wanted to achieve with Nirvana, which was news to me. I now listen to In Utero with a new perspective.
Broken Alleys For me, it's Nevermind...It's so addicting, I've probably heard it more than a hundred times. In Utero is sort of like an occasional listen, or listening to only a certain songs...but Nevermind is like a ride, filled with ecstasy from the start to finish...Never a dull moment..
i love em both. such different styles of recording, and writing too for that matter, but it's still Kurt's vision and it comes through. If anything, Bleach is the one I listen to only sometimes, but when I do I go on a serious kick.
Dave’s voice has changed sooo much. He’s gained so much confidence, and he also looks like a completely different person. Krist sounds really similar though.
Growing up with Napster and Mix cds, at a very young age I was prone to song skipping. In Utero was the very first album I listened to from start to finish and it introduced me to a whole new world of music listening. I owe In Utero so much.
When I listened to this, it reminded me of when Dave and Krist talked back in the day, not like Krist usually in the present where he kind of reminds me of an "old man". And I don't mean that to be disrespectful in any way, just glad to hear the "old" band members talking.
Teenage angst paid off well, now he's boring and old... In all seriousness, he's almost 30 years older, you don't stay a goofy youngster forever, you get older, wiser and your tastes and personality changes, thats life!
@@superfurrygaz1 Not Dave though, who is still much closer to his older self, so your comment is not really correct. Krist now comes off as some kind of old, corporate/businessman type of guy. I don't know how else to really put it, but I also wish he still had some of that old Krist vibe.
they were stoked that steve albini liked them kurt was big on his idols as we all are on kurt now .great album def my favourite nirvana album radio friendly unit shifter my fav song on it :)
Pat Smear was briefly in the touring band for a few months .. he's about as much a member of Nirvana as Jason Everman, and way less than Chad Channing :/ so tired of people acting as if this middling rhythm guitarist was a full-fledged member of the legendary band because he was not, and never recorded anything with them in studio. End of story.
Its November 2023. Another decade just passed and we have the 30th anniversary of In Utero. Nirvana's super deluxe box set is available. See you folks in 2033 when we will celebrate the 40th anniversary!
Great interview and comment from the 2/3 of this absolute classic alternative rock band and one the best raw rock records ever recorded this side of the 90s
I think there is. During the Nevermind anniversery interview, Butch Vig (producer) mentioned recording a song with a janky riff that Dave and Krist had forgotten about and didn't know what he was talking about. Talk to Me has said janky riff so if they can find it, they can release it.
Me too! A very old garage door and the garage is obviously too small for the Imperial (not sure) I also allways wondered who inspired Kurt to like early Chrysler/Dodge cars.
its funny listening to this after listening to the nevermind 20 year interview. The nevermind one is really polished, the in utero one is far more sketchy. Just like in real life!
Time goes by. People grow. The pain transforms. If they, after 20 or 30 years, still had not learned to handle this, they would be in big trouble. Dave said, they had so much fun back then. They are able to remember the good times and acknowledge the whole picture, even if there is a lot of pain in this too. This is a normal process. You can not only think about the bad and the pain. Both have lived more years without Kurt than with him now. A lot of experience, good and bad down the road. It might sound harsh, but life for them did not stop the day Kurt died. It propably felt like it, but at some point they knew life keeps going on.
Also the Albini mix of Heart Shaped Box is incredibly quiet. Thank God they went with the Scott Litt mix otherwise I don't think it would have been played on the radio.
20 years & continues RELEVANT !!! Kurt, I would love seening you alive !, and finding the peace that I found in my deepest hole of sadness,and in my mental turbulence, NIRVANA !!
Indeed. Perhaps my favorite record of all time. Definitely the one that inspired me to grow a pair, learn how to play guitar and start recording albums of my own. This album will never NOT be relevant. It also (oddly) never seems to age. Albini worked with the pixies and breeders and they sound like the 80s to me, but in utero still sounds like it was recorded yesterday
The demo of All Apologies has a CCR vibe about it. Proud Mary in particular. You can hear it with the way the rhythm guitar is playing. Very cool. I recall reading somewhere that Kurt was a fan of the band.
You're spot on :) Kurt and Krist had a short-lived CCR coverband. You can actually find a SB-recording of Bad Moon Rising on TH-cam (just search: Nirvana - Bad Moon Rising (Cover from Creedence Clearwater Revival))
@@k.t.5405 About A Girl is more of a Beatles vibe. The rumor is that Kurt listened to Meet The Beatles for 3 hours before writing it. (Though that is probably a stretch)
"Power .... Miiiiiind annn soooul" 9:54 Took me back to the 90's European tour video, where the grapes were eaten by the oranges and vine was spilled. These guys are still friends and you can hear it))
I love their digressions...discussing the color of Steve Albini's work suit, then Krist goes on about car colors. Probably they had similar silly chats with Kurt.
I’ve always thought that Nevermind was like their Revolver/Sgt Pepper and In Utero was their White Album. The All Apologies demo really sounds like an Escher Demo doesn’t it?
@@travis6339 I don't see Nevermind's connection with Revolver/Srgt Pepper except it's kind of chronologically correct. I do agree that All Apologies sounds like an Escher Demo song.
@@MyComedyStore My thoughts on the Nevermind connection was that it was considered a "new sound" in the mainstream and because it was their most well known album.
Tom Cello fair enough. The original Beatles sound of the early Beatles was actually very unique. I’ve read Kurt actually listened to a lot of early Beatles albums like “Meet the Beatles” even though most people would think his grunge look and sound came from the white album era.
@@MyComedyStore Yeah, I've heard him say that Meet the Beatles was one of his favorite albums of all time, and that it influenced him in writing songs like "About a Girl". Even when I hear the flat seventh chords in songs like Serve the Servants and Heart Shaped Box I hear that seventh heavy sound of the early Beatles
It's funny all of those bands just played good rock/punk whatever. Nirvana didn't popularize GRUNGE. The media didn't know what was going on or what to call it, they popularized grunge.
His bass line to "Lounge Act" is one of my favorite of all time. Seriously, if you aren't familiar, listen to it again. Fucking awesome from start to finish, really makes the song move and bounce.
wait wait. 3.0-3.5=silence for Jesus Lizard Boilermaker. And then 26:3-28:10 SILENCE! for Heart Shaped Box studio version. SO DISAPPOINTING!!! copyright, shmoppyright. right is right. Otherwise, a verrry interesting interview. Jesper Nielson, thx so much for posting. 20th Anniv Deluxe Edition. I want it. Almost a day's pay, maybe January. :>)
The record company tried destroying Steve - he almost went out of business because of the record company slagging him off to the press and industry so of course Steve was pissed
@@johnmchugh8049 well it’s pretty much like i said, underground bands loved albini’s raw producing style but post nirvana he jacked up his prices then started acting like there was a plot against him. i believe it’s the doc about failure golden in which they said they had paid a relatively fair price to record with him and enjoyed the product, but they didn’t return because after a certain “popular” band recorded with him his rates skyrocketed. seeing as nirvana paid him $2M it wouldn’t be surprising if his rates afterwards were far out of the reach of a majority of bands that wanted to work with him. i’m not hugely researched on the topic however, but i’d likely to guess the truth lies somewhere in the middle. maybe more bands wanted to do a non label involved albini production (nirvana paid out of pocket in order to have no label interference with the record) but his prices were too high and execs didn’t want their bands having full creative control, hence he’d start to lose out on business. that’d make most sense to me at least and would account for both sides of the argument.
So it's true. Courtney said "if in Utero came out the way Kurt wanted it to, it would have changed the face of rock.." I believe after hearing this, there is another version. AND I WANT IT.
aj2674 They already did that with Nevermind. In Utero was more of a personal album, to turn off the jocks who got into nevermind, Whereas Nevermind was full of catchy poppy rock melodies to become "famous". I hate being cliche but it is genuinely a case of Kurt wanting to be a huge star, becoming it, and then not wanting it.
Hate when bands release demos unless it's of some rare, unreleased or otherwise particular/peculiar recording. Kills some of the mystery. Love the remasters though.
got the triple vinyl yesterday loving it but when i get some more cash i will get the cd plus dvd set next week it still is hard to think it is 20 years old i was 14 when the album came out 20 years it still sounds great and we all still miss kurt r.i.p.
I’m only 22 years old always knew and thought Kurt was cool and in the last few weeks I random saw “montage of heck” documentary and ever since then I literally can’t listen to anything else literally became my favorite band ever in the span of weeks. I used to think that any band as big as Nirvana can’t be good cause every super duper popular band sucks right? NO,Nirvana is the only band that is one of the biggest of all time and I fucking understand why.
There are many big name bands that don't suck; Zeppelin, CCR, Beatles, Lynyrd Skynyrd, etc. and there are many big name bands that do suck; Kid Rock, Justin Bieber, Brittany Spears, etc. You've grown up in an era where mainstream music consists of media marketed, big name bands that exist solely for the purpose of making money. That's all you've known, so it's natural that you'd assume that all big name bands suck.
+Jesper Nielsen. You got it right. It was like another Beatles. Too bad that it ended the way it did. Kurt did say in one of their last interviews that he was glad that Dave was writing songs to help out because the pressure was too much for Kurt to handle. That's why I have doubts about his death & I hate thinking this way but some things didn't sound right about his death. Unless Kurt was just getting too high & started having some strange thoughts. Things were going to change. Kurt had new idea's & it would have been great to have seen what they were going to do next.

@Kath mason: I’m psychic when it wants to be Oh hell yes it was but when a body is sent directly to the crematory, without a body, everything is just speculation. Regardless if family felt the police blotched it up, or if the family thought Kurt's wife played a part in it. I mean she really wanted that electrician to get to that house and put a security light & camera on the front of the garage........ But then again we have to remember that Kurt had also been talking some wild shit. Bad enough his band mates didn't want to repeat it because it sorta made them all look like they didn't care or they figured he was going to kill himself. It was a tuff time in Rock History...
@Kath mason: I’m psychic when it wants to be Well Courtney's own father thought that she had something to do with it so it sounds like crazy ran in her family as well as Kurt's....
The drum sound on In Utero sounds different from other Albini stuff is because it was remixed by another guy after the label heard it because they thought it didn't sound radio friendly or commercial enough. The original Albini mix surfaced only a couple of years ago, I think. I don't understand why they didn't mention it. Maybe they didn't want to ruin their rock street cred or whatever?
you're mistaken, scott litt remixed heart shaped box and all apologies because the label and kurt supposedly thought the vocals were too low..nothing to do with the drums and those two songs were the only ones remixed.
Kurt also said in the John(?) Savage interview he thought Steve was horrible as a mixer and was great as a sound engineer . ....getting the small room sound etc,..
The 'original' mix is actually a new mix Steve did for the 2013 release. It also had the original HSB and AA on it, plus the remixed Pennyroyal Tea, which is also on the black best of.
"He was not into manipulating moments, he was into capturing them." Difference between Butch Vig and Steve Albini right there. I love both but In Utero is just an untamed BEAST of an album. I'll never forgive Vig for making them record Lithium to a click track to keep it on time when the song naturally wants to speed up as it progresses :/
John Arundell You’ll never forgive Butch for making Dave record it to a click? Dude, what are you talking about? That’s his job as a producer. He clearly made the right decision as the song sounds great.
Steve albini was never right for nirvana. He might have been in 1989. After never mind, they should have… dare I say it.. done the record with someone like Eric Valentine. They would have had an amazing selling album with hits that Kurt wrote.
Dave and Krist talking about serious insights into one of the greatest recording sessions from one of the greatest bands of all time. Interviewer interrupts about some douche electronic music producer he knows. Nice one bud, nobody cares..
Most people who follow indie music know who Dan Deacon is. It's not inconceivable that Dave and Krist would be familiar with his music, and the whole point of mentioning him was to segue into the next question.
Serve the Servants is still a bad song. You can remix the drums a thousand times but you can’t make a Silk Purse out of a Sows Ear. It’s still garbage. All Apologies is good and Dumb but especially Heart Shaped Box which is one of Cobains best songs. My friend said In Utero was the sound of them slipping. Although Nevermind was the breakthrough In Utero had its moments.

i get tired of In Utero and Nevermind, but Bleach is the one album i will never get bored of
Hating Nevermind doesn't make you look cool or make you a true Nirvana fan
Yup
Agreed
They had 3 amazing studio albums, 3 uniquely amazing albums
Three albums and they all sound different. I commend them for that.
@Steev Thompson so true bro they blended soooo well there vocals did… underrated and very over looked!!!
20 years later dave and Krist still act the same during interviews. It just shows that these guys speak there minds during interviews.
Turtles lol
dave and krist sound exactly like they did back in the day. when they joke and krist goes off about social things it makes me sad.
Dave’s voice has changed sooo much. He’s gained so much confidence, and he also looks like a completely different person. Krist sounds really similar though.
Growing up with Napster and Mix cds, at a very young age I was prone to song skipping. In Utero was the very first album I listened to from start to finish and it introduced me to a whole new world of music listening. I owe In Utero so much.

"Two surviving members" God I hate that. It makes them sound like an old 60s band.
I know, it makes it sound like Nirvana were sent to fight in the Gulf War or something
I mean it means that Kurt is dead, and they aren't, not that they are old, and still living. It makes it sound more dramatic.
That's because Pat Smear wasn't there.
Pat Smear was briefly in the touring band for a few months .. he's about as much a member of Nirvana as Jason Everman, and way less than Chad Channing :/ so tired of people acting as if this middling rhythm guitarist was a full-fledged member of the legendary band because he was not, and never recorded anything with them in studio.

I could listen to the last two Beatles and the last two Nirvana guys talk about making those records all day every day.
Wow that Jesus Lizard song is so quiet.
That was at the height of their ambient shoe-gazing phase.

People with substance use disorders are about six times more likely to commit suicide than the general population.

@Kath mason: I’m psychic when it wants to be Oh hell yes it was but when a body is sent directly to the crematory, without a body, everything is just speculation. Regardless if family felt the police blotched it up, or if the family thought Kurt's wife played a part in it. I mean she really wanted that electrician to get to that house and put a security light & camera on the front of the garage........
But then again we have to remember that Kurt had also been talking some wild shit. Bad enough his band mates didn't want to repeat it because it sorta made them all look like they didn't care or they figured he was going to kill himself. It was a tuff time in Rock History...
@Kath mason: I’m psychic when it wants to be Well Courtney's own father thought that she had something to do with it so it sounds like crazy ran in her family as well as Kurt's....
god my username makes this worse, but dave mentioning def leppard in a good light makes me happy man
Thanks
The interviewer's a bit of a douche
Dan Johnston totally! I fucking want to slap him repeatedly
That all apologies demo reminded me of the meat puppets a little bit.

luv Grohl in this photo
Did they change parts of In Utero or am I just misunderstanding it all?
Strange Brew no change besides mastering which is an audio process of clarity and compression
Best Nirvana album. Only the people that don't really understand music hate it.
The millions of album sold and cultural impact of Nevermind says otherwise.
A la votre pour vos 20 ans NIRVANA
So do I too!
Jump to 35:01 for the best part of this interview.
1. Nevermind (5/5)
2. In utero (4.5/5)
3. Unplugged (4/5)
4. Bleach (2/5)
Kurt was on ice also
A la votre pour votre anniversaire NIRVANA
Albini Mix only
The drum sound on In Utero sounds different from other Albini stuff is because it was remixed by another guy after the label heard it because they thought it didn't sound radio friendly or commercial enough. The original Albini mix surfaced only a couple of years ago, I think. I don't understand why they didn't mention it. Maybe they didn't want to ruin their rock street cred or whatever?
you're mistaken, scott litt remixed heart shaped box and all apologies because the label and kurt supposedly thought the vocals were too low..nothing to do with the drums and those two songs were the only ones remixed.
'Penny-Royal Tea' also was remixed, to be part of an April 1994 single.
Kurt also said in the John(?) Savage interview he thought Steve was horrible as a mixer and was great as a sound engineer . ....getting the small room sound etc,..
The 'original' mix is actually a new mix Steve did for the 2013 release. It also had the original HSB and AA on it, plus the remixed Pennyroyal Tea, which is also on the black best of.
this guy loves to cut off krist mid-sentence
15:35 Dave, are you trying to say Steve Albini drinks shitty coffee?
I bought it the day it came out. Never mind also. I liked bleach and incesticide the best.
what a beautiful way to start the video
if only the interviewer were not WRONG about saying that Cobain took his own life
....
"He was not into manipulating moments, he was into capturing them." Difference between Butch Vig and Steve Albini right there. I love both but In Utero is just an untamed BEAST of an album. I'll never forgive Vig for making them record Lithium to a click track to keep it on time when the song naturally wants to speed up as it progresses :/
John Arundell You’ll never forgive Butch for making Dave record it to a click? Dude, what are you talking about? That’s his job as a producer. He clearly made the right decision as the song sounds great.
"I promise not to sell your perfumed secrets"
"there are countless formulas for pressing flowers"
none of the people that really knew him, thought it was murder.
Except the person closest to him - Krist. He killed himself, get over it.
Problem is, you weren't one of them. Neither was I
What does it matter? He's dead.
The EUROPA LUNA
They could of had different pictures throughout the video...
im fuckin pissed i heard this came out.. went to order and im 30 bucks short from buying it fml...
35:00 oh my:D
They cut out Nirvana songs (26:25) from a Nirvana documentary?! LMAO /face palm
Most likely done to keep the video from being blocked by YT... copyright deals and what not.
I had to make sure my speakers weren't tripping out lol right??
Dude, I wanted to listen to Jesus Lizard too.... Come on
Steve albini was never right for nirvana. He might have been in 1989. After never mind, they should have… dare I say it.. done the record with someone like Eric Valentine. They would have had an amazing selling album with hits that Kurt wrote.
Facts. Albini sounds lazy af with all his one takes and passing it off as being a purist
You are from a different universe
"Two surviving members"... It's not like they all were in plane crash and only Kurt died.
ME AND DAVE ARE ALIKE 36:30 ... thats what i waste my time doing too
In Utero > Bleach > Nevermind
In Utero > Nevermind > Bleach
Incesticide was only a compilation album but I like it the best
Bleach > Incesticide > Nevermind > In Utero
Henryk Musolf 👈👈👈🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕🏿🖕
Dave and Krist talking about serious insights into one of the greatest recording sessions from one of the greatest bands of all time. Interviewer interrupts about some douche electronic music producer he knows. Nice one bud, nobody cares..
Seriously.
Most people who follow indie music know who Dan Deacon is. It's not inconceivable that Dave and Krist would be familiar with his music, and the whole point of mentioning him was to segue into the next question.
Where's the damn Jesus Lizard track
Listen to the Jon Savage interview with Kurt Cobain, he says he thinks that Steve Albini sucks as a mixer lol
The interviewer is absolutely terrible!
I agree
hey go away, go away, go awayyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!
Serve the Servants is still a bad song. You can remix the drums a thousand times but you can’t make a Silk Purse out of a Sows Ear. It’s still garbage.
All Apologies is good and Dumb but especially Heart Shaped Box which is one of Cobains best songs.
My friend said In Utero was the sound of them slipping. Although Nevermind was the breakthrough In Utero had its moments.
