In Utero – NirvanaView More By Nirvana Our ReviewIf Nevermind's polished sound was a glorious blaze in a candle factory, In Utero's was a grease fire on a blackened stove. Deliberately tweaking the machinery of the grunge industry, the trio recorded the follow-up to their multi-platinum triumph with indie godhead Steve Albini, who was all too happy to give them a sound almost as alienating as the one he'd brought to PJ Harvey's Rid of Me. Kurt Cobain had a case of squawling dissatisfaction to unload, and from "Scentless Apprentice" to "Frances Farmer Will Have Her Revenge on Seattle," he soaked the floors with it. A more complex set of songs than even the bunch that made Cobain a superstar, these also covered the bases from regret ("All Apologies") to incoherence ("Tourette's") and even - what's this? - a grudging pleasure ("Dumb"). In Utero is final proof that a record can't expel all the poison from an artist's system. If it somehow could have, Cobain would certainly be with us today.. Customer ReviewsSo Perfect, Its Creepy (5 stars)To Compare "In Utero" to "Nevermind" would be like comparing Pearl Jam to N'Sync. In my opinion, In Utero is a better album. Although it is true that Nevermind has no filler tracks, and In Utero does (Very Ape, Tourrete's) these tracks are both under a minute, and are used as "Introductions" to some of the most powerful songs in Nirvana's Entire Carear. In Utero shows Cobain at the top of his game, while his lyr 2nd Best Album by Nirvana (5 stars) From their gritty beginnings as a series of heavy grunge messes (some songs could be considered even 'grind-core' ranging from the 85-87 era) to Cobain's acoustic swan songs (Do Re Mi, Ivy League, The Son), Nirvana can't just be described as the best 'grunge' band. They covered many genres, even country/bluegrass... and through their influences achieved a sound that rivaled the glam metal bands of the 80's, even the punk uprisings later on. Nirvana Unbound (5 stars) There is an inevitable comparison that is always brought up between 1991's "Nevermind" and 1993's "In Utero". No doubt, they are Nirvana's two best albums, and are among the best of the 90's. To me, I think "In Utero" was the better of the two. Nevermind was the album that popularised grunge and revived punk. Green Day and Pearl Jam would not have been popular had Nirvana not released Nevermind. But the only pr BiographyFormed: 1987 in Aberdeen, WAGenre: Rock Years Active: '80s, '90s Prior to Nirvana, alternative music was consigned to specialty sections of record stores, and major labels considered it to be, at the very most, a tax write-off. After the band's second album, 1991's Nevermind, nothing was ever quite the same, for better and for worse. Nirvana popularized punk, post-punk, and indie rock, unintentionally bringing it into the American mainstream like no other band to date. While their sound was equal parts Black Sabbath (as learned by fellow Washington underground...
