I always think of Incesticide as Nirvana's second album, between Bleach and Nevermind. And it actually does sound exactly like their music is transitioning from the dark and grungy Bleach to the brighter and catchier Nevermind.
Listen to smells like teen spirit reversed I hate you a denial don't believe me look it up too ignorant to look it up weird ai did a meme video on it of aka Kurt giving a toast with a man on fire read this again.
@@michaelmcdonald8452 The boys in Silverchair had written down songs to request the local radio station to play. They inadvertently wrote Sliver as "Silver" and below that, wrote "Chair" for AIC's Angry Chair. Upon seeing the mistake, they thought Silverchair was a good band name. I can't verify this because I cant remember which issue of GuitarWorld I read the interview.
Def a classic, didn't buy Nevermind till the lithium video aired, once I had nevermind I wanted more n found bleach and incesticide, to say the least I was suprised by what I heard, at first I was kinda wierded out then alot of it grew on me, Def an album I always go back to and enjoy front to back.
Everything thing from that time impresses me. Dale Crover was amazing and they seemed to really be their own band. Bleach was good but it may just me projecting here, it sounded like they were trying to sound like a Seattle Sub Pop band. I mean they were a Seattle sub pop band but they were still alot more "grungey" and didnt show their particular whacky hard pop style except for Love Buzz, and About a Girl was just really weird. From what I can tell, those recordings sounded like Kurt wanting to be in Olympia scene. He lived in the same building as Slim Moon of the Kill Rock Stars label and he tried his damnest to get on Calvin Johnsons K records. Unfortunately, he kinda made a bad impression on Slim cause he was super excited about the Kinks album and called Slim in his apartment to listen to it. Thats the "My Sharona" band. Calvin Johnson supported them as much as they needed. Thats guy he gives bands alot of attention for a few weeks to a month and drops them flat no explanation. Its usually after they get some buzz going or record an album. Like, around incesticides released he had an insanely substantial Modest Mouse recorded but it never saw the light of day till like 2003. Calvin Johnson seems to be the guy who prefers to get people started rather than actually working with them while they go. As far as nirvana is concerned, he let them play their full set live on the radio, KAOS radio and brought kurt by himself back again when they were in band limbo when they fired Chad. Many musicians feel slighed by this and have a negative opinion of the dude later when they get big for treating them like royalty seeing to their every need for a week and recording them quick then not returning phone calls all the sudden. Kurt even wrote in 93 "I made 2 million dollars last year and Calvin Johnson ain't getting a penny!". Its weird stuff. Its just his way. Johnson likes to be the guy who introduces people to music more than anything and in 90s thats how he conducted himself. Probably still does now.
this was the first album I ever owned brand new... (on tape) my mom thought she was gonna be cool and give me something that sounded really wild... that shit changed my life... so greatfull
That's really cool, it was my second Nirvana album and my first brand new one by them (Nevermind was a second-hand one). My favourite tracks are Big Long Now, Molly's Lips and Aneurysm definitely.
I didn't even know about bleach till after he was found dead. Here in little ole nw Indiana that album wasn't on the shelves here till after his death. No internet, very little coverage from my standpoint I had no idea other than I loved this band. I got every album after nevermind for Xmas.
Incredible album, big long now has always made me feel uneasy somehow, it has a creeping sense of dread building through the song, hard to explain. Aneurysm is probably the best song they ever wrote. Love it.
Same. Was a huge fan of them when SLTS hit the air, from there each album that hit the shelves in time for Xmas i asked for. Listening to incesticide after the nevermind boom was definitely very different but I was so captivated by their nevermind album that I was all in regardless of its difference from nevermind, I had to adjust to alot of incesticide. Mind you I was 12.
I bought this when it came out on tape, cd and vinyl because why not? The vinyl is a cool blue marble color. Pretty sure it was limited to the first pressing. Weird they did it in double LP format for the anniversary. This collection of songs is an excellent document and analysis of the band developing and evolving up to the Nevermind era. Back then I remember being really impressed with the songs Stain, Dive and Aneurysm. Used to drive around with this album blasting all the time.
Beeswax, Aero Zeppelin, Hairspray Queen, Big Long Now, Mexican Seafood, Aneurysm, and the other songs that didn't end up on the album are just pure genius in my opinion ! (oh ! And the song 'Opinion' ! ...Wow !)
I thought the name Sliver actually fit perfect beyond Kurt's little trick. He's singing about being a kid and riding his bike, what do kids get? Slivers
I got my very first CD boom box for my birthday the summer of 8th grade (I was living off my tape collection till that moment)... I went to Sam Goody and bought my first 3 CDs ever.. STP's 'Core', AIC's 'Dirt', and (of course) good ol' 'Incesticide'. It's a pretty incredible collection of songs that I've always treasured. And it sure helped inspire me to learn bass and guitar that summer :)
rock on, man... when I went to 8th grade in 1991, most of my fellow teenage brethren in junior high hadn't been interested in music apart from the kids in the school band or the few skater kids who played their older brother’s guitar but by the summer of 1992 those same kids who weren't into music before had their parents buy them electric guitars and bass and drums and were making the most beautiful noise in their parents’ garages and basements and attics. We were very fortunate to be teenagers at that time, man!
I loved Incesticide. I thought it was raw and was hard rock punk. I listen to it all the time. I loved the electric Polly and Aneurysm. Turnaround was a Devo song. Molly's Lips was two chord bliss, Aero zeppelin was a mix of Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin. Mexican Seafood and Dive were standouts.
you maybe didnt know this but incesticide was originally released by gefen on green clear vinyl a week before the cd and cassette in 1992. i still own my copy in its original shrink wrap. same with many albums at the time - pearl jam’s second album, soundgarden superunknown, smashing pumpkins siamese dream, NiN downward spiral were all advance released on vinyl.
one of my fav placed EASY next to BLEACH well when you their history you ll know that Incesticide is basically many of the tracks that sadly did not appeared in Bleach but man one thing it does always hurt my feelings about this great album is not having a hidden Sleepy Demonic track such Endless Nameless.. but hey the epic BIG LONG NOW it still there
what about "been a son"?? with Dive is one of my favourites. I started to listen to Nirvana when i listened to Dive, as I was given incesticide as a birthday gift, it was a tape i remember LOL. Been a son such a great song
The day I bought “Incesticide” as a teenager in the 1990s, my neighbor Lucy & I used hydrogen peroxide (since my hair was so thicK & bLacK) to sorta “dye” my hair, giving it patches of a reddish, rusty look amongst my regular black hair. We listened to the CD twice in a row as Lucy did what she could with my hair & the peroxide and then we smoked some pot and zoned out listening to the album a third time before her boyfriend came home from worK with some beer and I proceeded to get underage drunK (oh, the days of my misspent youth...) with Oscar & Lucy, who, like everyone else, also had “Nevermind” and I remember it was they had a 3-disc CD player and so we put both Nirvana CD’s in it on “shuffle” and we jumped about drunK, rocking out with their stereo as loud as it couLd go untíL, instead of going home, Oscar told me I could pass out in their bed, which I did and when I woKe uP, Lucy was crashed out on the other side of the bed and Oscar was asleep on their couch, so I left them a note and a bud to smoke and went Home to my Ma’s, who was happy that I hadn't blared “Incesticide” the night before in her & her boyfriend's small apartment cuz our neighbors were bitchy about noise and wasn't even pissed off that Lucy & I fucKed with my thick black Native American hair; in fact, Ma let me pLay “Incesticide” (just once, tho) on her 4-speaker stereo that we had crammed into this shoebox apartment at a moderate volume on the condition that I smoked some of my pot with her. My Ma had turned me on to Soundgarden before Nirvana hit, and actually had the cassette of “Bleach” in her tape collection from one of her college-age friends unbeknownst to me for months before I realized that my Ma had a tape of the first album of the band we all got into in 1991, which had me making copies of that cassette for my friends on tape cuz, until “Incesticide” came out and Nirvana put out another album, “Nevermind” and “Bleach” (and I remember the CD single of “Smells Like Teen Spirit” having two other songs on it that weren't on the first two albums) there wasn't as much Nirvana recordings available at the time, especially since I was only a teenager who was lucky enough to have - despite being a Baby Boomer - a Mom who had (and still has, I have to concede) an ear for what was going to be hip and good in music... which is why “Incesticide” was worth dying my hair over and getting stoned & drunK with my neighbors when I bought it. 15 songs, man... the first half (like a vinyl record) is catchy, punked-up pop tunes and then there's these wild, bizarre and heavy tracks that kinda sounded like “Bleach” but wilder... it's one of my favorite albums and that CD that I bought lasted a long time through many house parties and various dwellings with me (unlike, for instance, my original vinyl copy of “In Utero” being stolen 🖕😡) up until sometime in the late-2000’s at least... for all I know, the CD itself and the CD “cover/booklet” (which I remember reading for the first time thinking “this guy just don't give a fuck!”) may still be warehoused in Ma's basement where alot of the debris from my youth has been kept...
You can hear Cobain's Rubber Duck during the instrumental breakdown on Drain You. Kurt also poured a glass of water back n forth btw 2 glasses during Rape Me. Such a creative soul
I have to say that Aero Zeppelin was more about how virtually every hard rock band at the time was overly influenced by the 2 acts Led Zep and Aerosmith and how redundantly boring that type of music and style had become.
“Although I listened to Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin, and I really did enjoy some of the melodies they’d written, it took me so many years to realize that a lot of it had to do with sexism. The way that they just wrote about their dicks and having sex. I was just starting to understand what really was pissing me off so much those last couple years of high school. And then punk rock was exposed and then it all came together. It just fit together like a puzzle. It expressed the way I felt socially and politically. Just everything. You know. It was the anger that I felt. The alienation.” -Blank on Blank, 1993
@@angelite7416 yeah Courtney Love manipulated him and anyone she could to get as rich as possible. Even manipulated his manager to help her have Cobain killed. So like we're all supposed to feel sorry for women being oppressed in this circumstance???
Really? That’s how they got the song title Aero Zeppelin? I would’ve never deduced that. Do you have any other unsolvable riddles disguised as little known facts?
@@pauljohnson577 in the early days kurt convinced krist to throw out his classic rock records cuz he wasnt punk enough. i think he did actually like that music, but you have to go through that 'i hate my parent's music' phase to figure out what you really like.

F*ck nevermind (even though it's a great album). This is better it's such a awesome compilation. and I like it more than never mind. I love the rawness and the underground feel. Super underrated and it's criminal that nobody ever recognized this as a classic album. You're not a Nirvana fan if you don't like any of these songs. trust me listen to bleach then listen to this. Then listen to never mind then listen to In utero and you'll know this, bleach and in utero are the best. I say in utero is my favorite then bleach then this then never mind.
4 ปีที่แล้ว
Hey awesome I am the 666th like 👍 I can't believe it's been 28 years since this album came out
I have that book, Cobain unseen and it's one of my favorite things I own! Most people who aren't hardcore fans don't even know about incesticide, it's a shame! I also have an incesticide tattoo on my lower right arm.
When it comes to replays, Bleach and Incesticide get the most. I don't if it's an authentic preference. Or if it's because you get to hear tracks off of Nevermind and In Utero without even trying. I really wish this got a CD remaster like the other albums.
Stain is hands down by far the best song on Incesticide. Don't get me wrong Sliver, Dive and Aneurysm are great songs but Stain takes the cake on the album.
I think. All of the Jack Endino recording productions value, inside at the Nirvana's vibe. It's the best sounding productions ever. Even Bleach sounds great to my ears. I know, there are some many music around from the band, and the soundung production values were beign better and bigger. But they were a far away from the Nirvana Soul catching vibe as i can think. But assuming about that. In Utero it's another kind of monster. And inside on those recordings production values. It's really an improvement. Of Course; Nevermind still the best at the sounding efforts. But; it's a Pop album. But to heavy and very satured if you ask me. Not like an a Pop Standards.
I like to pretend that Bleach, & Incesticide don’t exist. I think the doll on the cover represents his actual addiction, & the poppy is heroin, & the skeleton is Kurdt.
I dislike areosmith but i do like nervana and soundgarden so hate me idc i dislike black Sabbath too i feel like chris cornell and kurt cobain was probably my favorite generic 90s grudge songs everyone wearing flannel something from Seattle
I also dislike smart elicit people but you don't care do you i bet you listen to coldplay but im not gonna stoop to your level music is full of opinions let me voice mine and you voice yours find someone's else comment to troll on
Kurt didn't like led zepplin and aerosmith, he did as a kid but started to dislike them after he realized most of their songs were about sex etc, he believed that they were against women. (may be wrong)
I think at first Kurt liked Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin but then he realized that they were kinda sexist and he hated them for that. I might be wrong but thats what he said in an interview so..
I always think of Incesticide as Nirvana's second album, between Bleach and Nevermind. And it actually does sound exactly like their music is transitioning from the dark and grungy Bleach to the brighter and catchier Nevermind.
It's 2020 and all I watched today was Nirvana / Kurt Cobain's videos. Miss him so much, forever will
TuyaGirl I concur. Legends are not s thing any more sadly
Listen to smells like teen spirit reversed I hate you a denial don't believe me look it up too ignorant to look it up weird ai did a meme video on it of aka Kurt giving a toast with a man on fire read this again.
TuyaGirl What a wonderful way to spend New Years !! 😊😎😉
Did you watch the video how kurts wife killed him?
@@Pray-4-Me Yes I have seen it and absolutely 100% believe it !
big long now is an underrated song.
Yeah its pretty amazing and nobody really knows about it.
Big long now is such a heavy song. One of my favorites from Nirvana.
It is it is
So is AerosZeppelin
if i have to choose one
it would be without doubt BIG LONG NOW
i can see an epic even more Doomy version for an epic Doom Metal cover
Kurt called it Sliver because he thought people would call it Silver
He was successful...
Ended up helping to inspire Silverchair's band name.
Joey Gilbert Neither of these observations are verifiable and I’ve never heard it referred to as “Silver.”
@@michaelmcdonald8452 The boys in Silverchair had written down songs to request the local radio station to play.

Incesticide is my favorite Nirvana album.
"Incesticide" is my favorite Nirvana record.
Anyone else feels this way?
#METOO!!!!
Mine 2 I just got it on Vinyl Dive, Sliver, Molly’s Lips and Son of a Gun are highlights
Not only is Incesticide my fave Nirvana album, it's my fave album of all time, period. The best piece of music ever released.
Def a classic, didn't buy Nevermind till the lithium video aired, once I had nevermind I wanted more n found bleach and incesticide, to say the least I was suprised by what I heard, at first I was kinda wierded out then alot of it grew on me, Def an album I always go back to and enjoy front to back.
Fecal Matter is better
5:18 I’m impressed at how he never injects “like” into his sentences unlike most people.
I wish they would have played Hairspray Queen live more often. One of my favorite Nirvana songs.
Yeah.
Hairsparay queen goes off my fave I wish they played more of was Mexican seafood
Everything thing from that time impresses me. Dale Crover was amazing and they seemed to really be their own band. Bleach was good but it may just me projecting here, it sounded like they were trying to sound like a Seattle Sub Pop band. I mean they were a Seattle sub pop band but they were still alot more "grungey" and didnt show their particular whacky hard pop style except for Love Buzz, and About a Girl was just really weird. From what I can tell, those recordings sounded like Kurt wanting to be in Olympia scene. He lived in the same building as Slim Moon of the Kill Rock Stars label and he tried his damnest to get on Calvin Johnsons K records. Unfortunately, he kinda made a bad impression on Slim cause he was super excited about the Kinks album and called Slim in his apartment to listen to it. Thats the "My Sharona" band. Calvin Johnson supported them as much as they needed. Thats guy he gives bands alot of attention for a few weeks to a month and drops them flat no explanation. Its usually after they get some buzz going or record an album. Like, around incesticides released he had an insanely substantial Modest Mouse recorded but it never saw the light of day till like 2003. Calvin Johnson seems to be the guy who prefers to get people started rather than actually working with them while they go.

Many musicians feel slighed by this and have a negative opinion of the dude later when they get big for treating them like royalty seeing to their every need for a week and recording them quick then not returning phone calls all the sudden.

Johnson likes to be the guy who introduces people to music more than anything and in 90s thats how he conducted himself. Probably still does now.
I love Kurt's voice in Hairspray Queen.
They really only played it in the early days. Beeswax live in Argentina is amazing.
this was the first album I ever owned brand new... (on tape) my mom thought she was gonna be cool and give me something that sounded really wild... that shit changed my life... so greatfull
That's really cool, it was my second Nirvana album and my first brand new one by them (Nevermind was a second-hand one). My favourite tracks are Big Long Now, Molly's Lips and Aneurysm definitely.

Hairspray Queen is just amazing ! Everything on this album is ! The covers are great, but the songs written by Cobain are just pure genius !!!
I got this for Christmas 1992. Love it. I immediately dubbed a cassette copy of it, so I could also listen to it on my walkman.
"While riding my horse and making mead from my bee hives". Yep, I am old as well.
Right on man same here. How old were you at that time? I still have that long cardboard package the cd came in to this day.
Incesticide is still my favorite Nirvana album till this day!
Aero Zepplin and Big Long Now are two of Nirvana's best songs.
Chad Channing is underrated... bleached drumming is fuckin heavy af
Incredible album, big long now has always made me feel uneasy somehow, it has a creeping sense of dread building through the song, hard to explain. Aneurysm is probably the best song they ever wrote. Love it.
Incesticide is actually a dope album, there’s some good songs and it’s a lot more grungier
Boy kurt looked so much healthier back then. I could only imagine what music would be like today if he was still alive 👍👍
Yup.
Courtney hadn’t turned him into a junkie yet. Most he was into then was pot and alcohol.
@@IamGalvatron Not really... Read the book of Kurt's diaries, the informations are in there !
Dive in me...
Yesss keep making videos like this please. For us. Bring it back man ❤️
I love all your vids about albums. Very informative. I did not know Dave was on Incesticide at all. I learned something
This is by far my favorite album by nirvana. Nothing beats hairspray queen!
Being about 16 at the time, we all thought this was Nirvana's Second Studio album. Loved it and have the vinyl now in my late 40's.
We all?
Same.
Was a huge fan of them when SLTS hit the air, from there each album that hit the shelves in time for Xmas i asked for.
Listening to incesticide after the nevermind boom was definitely very different but I was so captivated by their nevermind album that I was all in regardless of its difference from nevermind, I had to adjust to alot of incesticide. Mind you I was 12.

Still one of my favourite albums. With all the different drummers it has a different feel.

That was a great video. Thanks for putting that together.
Great timing. I am actually waiting for my 45rpm copy of Incesticide. It will be here Friday.
It was originally a 33 rpm but seeing the re-release is a 2 disc......
Beeswax, Aero Zeppelin, Hairspray Queen, Big Long Now, Mexican Seafood, Aneurysm, and the other songs that didn't end up on the album are just pure genius in my opinion ! (oh ! And the song 'Opinion' ! ...Wow !)
Stain has to be the rawest and best sounds from Kurt’s singing
Make more videos like this please and thank you for this one❤
Finally! A place where I don't have to make any explanations about my pfp! :^)
:)
I’m pretty sure no one asked anyways
@@cg-rl1mn On live chats they always do, and on a couple of comment sections, so you're pretty wrong. Nice "c" you got there as a pfp! 😃👍
I thought the name Sliver actually fit perfect beyond Kurt's little trick. He's singing about being a kid and riding his bike, what do kids get? Slivers
A sliver is a slice of meat. "Couldn't chew my meat too good"

great compilation, we can tell which drummer is playing which song, it's great to have a few of em on there

one word: underrated
one of my fav placed EASY next to BLEACH
well when you their history you ll know that Incesticide is basically many of the tracks that sadly did not appeared in Bleach

anuyrysm live version is much better than the other one

I love the continuity of the sound throughout incesticide. Underrated album. Cannot call yourself a fan of you don’t like it.
Always liked that album 👌
I love “dive”
Stain and Been A Son are 2 of the coolest Nirvana songs released.
Dive and aneurysm 💯
You can hear Cobain's Rubber Duck during the instrumental breakdown on Drain You.
Kurt also poured a glass of water back n forth btw 2 glasses during Rape Me. Such a creative soul
When this came out it was very quickly passed by. It seemed out of place. It’s incredible.
I wish Sappy was on it
Its not cold enough...
Damn... Until I watched this and saw Jack Endino I've always thought it was two guys. Jack and Dino
😂
I have to say that Aero Zeppelin was more about how virtually every hard rock band at the time was overly influenced by the 2 acts Led Zep and Aerosmith and how redundantly boring that type of music and style had become.
“Although I listened to Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin, and I really did enjoy some of the melodies they’d written, it took me so many years to realize that a lot of it had to do with sexism. The way that they just wrote about their dicks and having sex. I was just starting to understand what really was pissing me off so much those last couple years of high school. And then punk rock was exposed and then it all came together. It just fit together like a puzzle. It expressed the way I felt socially and politically. Just everything. You know. It was the anger that I felt. The alienation.” -Blank on Blank, 1993
@@bupobm The feminist bullshit was the worst part about Cobain.
Yeah, he thought the song sounded like a cross between the 2 bands not because he particularly cared for either band.
Kaylynn Hammond how so? He’s supporting oppressed Women
@@angelite7416 yeah Courtney Love manipulated him and anyone she could to get as rich as possible. Even manipulated his manager to help her have Cobain killed. So like we're all supposed to feel sorry for women being oppressed in this circumstance???
Really? That’s how they got the song title Aero Zeppelin? I would’ve never deduced that. Do you have any other unsolvable riddles disguised as little known facts?
Def not favorite bands of Kurt’s so much as ironic guilty pleasures
Yeah, I find it highly unlikely that aerosmith were one of Kurt's favourite bands. Led Zepellin rock, but I still never heard him mention them.
@@pauljohnson577 in the early days kurt convinced krist to throw out his classic rock records cuz he wasnt punk enough. i think he did actually like that music, but you have to go through that 'i hate my parent's music' phase to figure out what you really like.
@@pauljohnson577 there's a video of nirvana covering immigratant song

Mexican seafood is a personal fave.
The Vaselines - Nirvana's muse.)
never seen that photo of Kurt with sideburns before...
F*ck nevermind (even though it's a great album). This is better it's such a awesome compilation. and I like it more than never mind. I love the rawness and the underground feel. Super underrated and it's criminal that nobody ever recognized this as a classic album. You're not a Nirvana fan if you don't like any of these songs. trust me listen to bleach then listen to this. Then listen to never mind then listen to In utero and you'll know this, bleach and in utero are the best. I say in utero is my favorite then bleach then this then never mind.
Hey awesome I am the 666th like 👍 I can't believe it's been 28 years since this album came out
I have that book, Cobain unseen and it's one of my favorite things I own! Most people who aren't hardcore fans don't even know about incesticide, it's a shame! I also have an incesticide tattoo on my lower right arm.
Definitely their best album just because of all the different members during those crucial years..
P.s. your accent still eludes me..
Guessing Australian
I mean it sounds like my voice when I talk so maybe somewhere in NY state?
He's secretly Chills
When it comes to replays, Bleach and Incesticide get the most. I don't if it's an authentic preference. Or if it's because you get to hear tracks off of Nevermind and In Utero without even trying. I really wish this got a CD remaster like the other albums.
You ain't never catching me!
Please someone answer my question pleasee, how did you get that guitar sound for the intro
Stain is hands down by far the best song on Incesticide. Don't get me wrong Sliver, Dive and Aneurysm are great songs but Stain takes the cake on the album.
My favorite album of all time, calm me silly.. 😋 I don't care
Awesome record. Took it from this chick I was seein for a min in 1996. Well I asked if I could borrow it and the rest is history.
1,200 likes! Nice!
I think. All of the Jack Endino recording productions value, inside at the Nirvana's vibe. It's the best sounding productions ever. Even Bleach sounds great to my ears.
I know, there are some many music around from the band, and the soundung production values were beign better and bigger. But they were a far away from the Nirvana Soul catching vibe as i can think. But assuming about that. In Utero it's another kind of monster. And inside on those recordings production values. It's really an improvement.
Of Course; Nevermind still the best at the sounding efforts. But; it's a Pop album. But to heavy and very satured if you ask me. Not like an a Pop Standards.
Jack E recorded High On Fire -Death Is This Communion -
That's really good🤘
Incesticide is so damn Delicious..♡
Did aero zeppelin need a explanation?
Haha, nope.
Big Long Now f*cking rips man.
i got the 2012 viny for 25 bucks
7:10 cobains garge? Wtf is that?
Its sounds like you said in Cobains Garge, instead of Garage ? What's up with that?
Haha, I really read it as "Silver" for way too long
My favorite Nirvana record. Especially side B. The lyrics are just so out there and I love it ! Read the lyrics to Mexican Seafood!
my dyslexic ass called it silver for years
Its the second early 20s
Its just a b-sides album, only good songs are Aneurysm and AeroZeppelin. Geffen was trying to milk the cow when they released
You speak for no one but yourself. I happen to think Dive, Stain and Big Long Now are great tracks.
Kaylynn Hammond well of course I speak for myself. ..
I like to pretend that Bleach, & Incesticide don’t exist. I think the doll on the cover represents his actual addiction, & the poppy is heroin, & the skeleton is Kurdt.
I dislike areosmith but i do like nervana and soundgarden so hate me idc i dislike black Sabbath too i feel like chris cornell and kurt cobain was probably my favorite generic 90s grudge songs everyone wearing flannel something from Seattle
Aww, he thinks anyone cares what he likes and dislikes. How cute.
I also dislike smart elicit people but you don't care do you i bet you listen to coldplay but im not gonna stoop to your level music is full of opinions let me voice mine and you voice yours find someone's else comment to troll on
Hope you like The Beatles, Nirvana was heavily influenced by them, just look at About A Girl
Kurt didn't like led zepplin and aerosmith, he did as a kid but started to dislike them after he realized most of their songs were about sex etc, he believed that they were against women. (may be wrong)
Molly lips❤❤
Best album next to bleach
I think at first Kurt liked Aerosmith and Led Zeppelin but then he realized that they were kinda sexist and he hated them for that. I might be wrong but thats what he said in an interview so..
