Radio Friendly Unit Shifter is one of my favorite songs on the album. But I love every song on it. Kinda annoying that several of these people acted like it was a throw-away. Same with Tourettes. They'd had it for a year, it definitely wasn't filler. Nevermind was the anomaly. Bleach and In Utero are better portraits of the band at the times they were recorded. I love all 3 but In Utero is the one that gets me

I'm not a huge fan of "In Utero," but "Radio Friendly Unit Shifter" might be my favorite song on the album. It's not like it's Lou Reed's "Metal Machine Music" or something. It's catchy. Damn catchy. I don't know what that reviewer is talking about.

The White Stripes' White Blood Cells and The Beatles' Let It Be. But I totally see where you're coming from. Thanks for the input!

yeah, i was 10 and had been into them for a bit. still remember seeing it on mtv and i thought it had to be a fucked up joke. i had all their albums, absolutely loved nirvana, and hole. drew a heart with hole in it on the heel of my beloved airwalks. and had a whole sheet of plywood in my yard that had my name for president spray painted on it in 96, and it was covered with the different smiley face logos, and nirvana on top. i think i had the antichrist superstar logo on it and some other stuff. it all had a huge influence on my life. bleach and in utero are kinda my favorites. other than unplugged maybe. also a big bowie fan. i remember when my dad got unplugged and just blasting it on his badass stereo. also employed the first time we watched tombstone, with the surround sound and the accoustics of that house. they'd got divorced in like 92, 93. and he moved into the house next to our house he'd built when i was like 2. but it had wood floors, and kinda sparse and open. the accoustics were just awesome for that kinda stuff. i still remember that, looking at the album cover and listening to it. and subsequently annexed it into my collection.lol also remember when wishkah came out, i have that image of just staring at the cover out in my yard, maybe even as i was making my sign. i think i did that right before the election that year and that and antichrist had just come out. we'd had to move. cause my mom and dad fought over our old house we'd grown up in and my dad ended up buying my mom's half and he moved back in. so, we moved to my step dad's house. it was a really turbulent time in my life, and even though kurt was gone i still had their music. i'd already been into manson for a while, but really got more into heavier and darker stuff. cause that's how i felt, i was extremely angry and depressed. and i don't know where i'd be if it hadn't been for all the music. and then layne's death, another huge blow. i'd also always been really into aic, tool and everything. just a really awesome time to be alive, but i have a lot of painful memories attatched with it as my family was torn apart and we eventually lost the home i grew up in altogether when my dad sold it and moved in with his wife, who he'd cheated on my mom with while she painted her house that he'd built, he was a framer and contractor then. along with him nearly killing himself. severe but "functioning" alcoholic, he fell asleep one night on the way home from the bar. and he had a big one ton box truck with all his tools, thousands of pounds of tools in the bed, hit a 4 foot wide oak tree and all that weight just crushed the cab. my grandpa couldn't even get his arm to where he was. being drunk was the only thing that saved him, since he went limp and got thrown into the floor. it looked like a crumpled beer can, and the bed barely had a mark. my friend's dad bought it and put it on his plumbing truck. but my mom woke me up at like 3 or 4 in the morning and we had to go to nashville where they'd life flighted him. he was gurgling blood bubbles, and his nose was literally hanging by a thread, looked like one vein was the only thing holding it on, literally no longer on his face, just dangling to the side. the juxtaposition of the time being so much fun, and also absolutely horrible. well, didn't intend on writing a novel... just put an end to it here.

@eldiablo3794 2 жыл бұрын

As a drummer myself, I feel like the overall tone and sound of Dave's drumming on in utero is way better than on nevermind. Even the way his snare was mic'd you can hear his flam hits so clearly and crisp on in utero. If you listen closely to the Foo Fighters 1st album, it's almost as if Dave used the same recording technique on that album too because the drum tones sound exactly the same as in utero. Dave is one of my favorite drummers. I appreciate nirvana and foo fighters from a musicianship standpoint because I literally taught myself how to drum playing along to Nevermind, in utero, muddy banks of the wishkah, and FF self titled album. If it wasn't for those albums I don't think I would've ever been inspired to teach myself how to play drums. Thanks Kurt Cobain, too. Because I read in one of his interviews that he too played drums and the way he learned was literally by copying the drummer who sat in 1st chair when he was in marching band lol.

As Kurt said "The suits hated it", but it has received many accolades since release. Geffen was expecting Nevermind II, but they should have known where they were going when Albini was picked to produce. Most Nevermind tracks were written months/years before the Butch Vig sessions, as was All Apologies, Dumb, Rape Me. Some of In Utero was written at the Hollywood Hills house, lots of vids on the place in YT.

The masses reacted to Nirvana the same way they had Metallica a few years before. Until they put out a "unit friendly shifter"😅 single on Mtv & radio those in the Rock community who enjoyed Thrash/Hardcore/Punk were ostracized! My older sister who turned me on to Black Sabbath & took me to my first rock show at 10 yro, Alice Cooper in 1981, was still asking me how I could listen to "that crap" called Metallica literally days before "One" hit Mtv & radio like "Teen Spirit" would. Then she freaked & loved it & said she had to get this "new" band's album & concert tickets, so I went with her to see them for the 3rd time shaking my fukn head!😅 That's not really a criticism, just letting y'all know how it went down & how it worked. There were plenty better bands that had paved the way & everyone knew it. Is why Kurt supposedly felt guilty, & of course why many called him a sell-out. But I remember when "Teen Spirit" hit. It was Fall of '91. I thought it was better than most music they were playing, but by no means thought it would change Rock forever. So when "Nevermind" went #1 I went straight to record store & bought "Bleach". If a band's any good I want to start from the beginning. Still think "No Recess" may have to be my all-time fave?😅 Anyway, I thought they were good but wasn't a big fan. I appreciate them more daily. Main reason I popped in here is to tell my lil "Where were you when?" story hardcore Nirvana fans may appreciate? On April 8, 1994 my band & a couple others were on break from tour & decided to head down to Atlanta to see Frank Black and the Ramones. We kept hearing non-stop Nirvana blocks on radio between flipping tapes & wondered why? Then we got the news about finding Cobain. That night the usually quiet Joey Ramone dedicated "Pet Sematary" to Kurt. Don't remember what Black said. Not a big Pixies fan either, like Kurt was. I also happened to be at first Foo Fighter stadium gig & very first Nirvana "reunion", as can be seen Bumbershoot '97. It was also last gig for Pat before he left the first time. Also, & didnt find out till next morning, a few hours earlier during Sonic Youth's set Princess Di died in a car crash. Oh yeah! AND Is where Grohl introduces Taylor Hawkins to Seattle!😅 Auspicious Day, Good Times, friends! If a Foo fan, the ground footage without encore/reunion is an excellent good sounding vid, after about 3, 4 songs of us getting rowdy. I was on 5 yard-line. Missed the bus home & slept behind the Space Museum.😅 Grainy footage on reunion didn't do it justice. Was a surprise & Grohl started singing, along with crowd, "Purple Rain" before kicking out the Jam. It wasn't really planned. A few months later I happened to catch Foos on their Color & Shape tour once again in Nashville & after show, sitting in parking lot drinking beer, Grohl came out to his bus all by himself. A small crowd gathered round & he said, give me a minute & I'll be right out, & came out & talked to EVERYBODY!!! We even talked about Bumbershoot over a brew. Coolest mofo you could ever meet! All that said, no matter how bad things may seem or be, friends, never forget: THESE ARE STILL "THE DAYS"!!! Love & Party accordingly! 🤘🌎❤️

Wow, this is one of the best made, most interesting & simply informative (factual)videos ive seen about Cobain & Nirvanas profound impact upon us. Thank you! Very refreshing it has helped me understand WHY Kurt Cobain has had the lasting (& growing) impact upon us, in this time & place. What a fabolous critique, thank you for helping me to appreciate this album not just for the great music (i discovered nirvana for myself just a few years back, a music lover in my mid 50s), but also for the incredible gift of creativity we have here, more akin to an anti hero & cultural treasure in the waning days of america the great, no less; the significance of meaning is very deep & will only deepen over time. Perhaps Cobain is like the Hemingway of Rock music. I found it refreshing that much of the gossip was not a focus, or even mentioned. My only suggestion, is i wish people would stop saying he committed suicide, because i dont believe he did, & it serves to perpetuate that narrative, which has saturated our socitety. Some of the interviewees assumed he took his own life. We are all more of FAKE NEWS & FALSE AGENDAS by now though arent we; hopeful. I refuse to acknowledge his suicide, simply because the facts show the nature of his death is NOT KNOWN.

I don't really see how Nevermind sounds dated. Maybe it's because I'm younger so I wasn't around when it was first released, but it sounds quite fresh to me. It's Bleach the one that sounds dated but that's because of the more lo-fi production on it.

I was all in with never mind, and I was all-in with In utero. I watched the MTV premiere video of teen Spirit and was hooked. I had a friend in California who worked for a trans World skater magazine and he had gotten a demo copy of nevermind before it hit the radio or anyone knew about it. We had a long conversation about how big this is going to be, and how this was the quintessential grunge alternative rock CD. One regret was I was in San Francisco on New Year's Eve one year like 93 and they were playing a gig over in Oakland with mud honey, I think The melvins and maybe flipper tickets were available but we decided not to go I wish we would have because he died not that long after

Same for the stone roses there second first album was amazing and when they released second coming I absolutely loved it. Although it got slated at the time by the stupid music critics and posing idiots who couldn't handle the band had written a more hardrock album. The Roses b-sides are equally as good, the turns into stone record is my favourite. I didn't appreciate in in utero the first time I played it. I admit it, I listened again a few months later and it made perfect sense and now is one of my favourite records. It's better than nevermind although never mind has many grant songs, the radio friendly ones were over played and have lost there magic

I remember hearing negative creep in 1991 on triple jjj hour of power - metal radio show, it was like punk, when teen spirit came out it took a bit to connect them to negative, bought in utero on release day, to be honest Nirvana destroyed rock music - like basically by the time in utero came out glam/hair/electro died - like legit died, kinda like how Pantera essentially killed Thrash metal, the times were changing, a new fresh breath was needed to continue evolution - it's inevitable, for me personally I think the greatest song Nirvana made is "even in his youth" it's just so basic and musically pure, a (90's) modern day punk song.

I remember in 1989 I was 14 and I hung out with some girl who listened to Depeche mode and so 21 yr old guy moved on the bottom apt. Somehow I wound up hanging out with him and he let me listen to Pixies Doo Little. I mostly listened to metallica, iron madien but I always had a open mind I guess but that opened up a new world for me especially when I got surfer rosa. That guy came from California and he was just too cool thanks Rob. Funny though, when nirvana started to get big and that whole scene was coming up I almost got into a fight because I told these new woke people (ya I like Poison). I thought they were suppose to except everyone as they were. That's when I knew I was not the poser. 😆

Music gives one a reason to live, especially if you're the one making it. I should know:a fucked up life gives ALOT to write about. Happy moments are very few & far between.
