a reupload because youtube be hating #roadto30k

Watching people finally listen to Nirvana is like watching someone lost in the desert and dehydrated find an oasis of clean water

Your open mindedness is actually so dope.

14:37 the lip balm application as the lyric is “i’m not gonna crack” is a paid actor

"Endless nameless" is song that was made when band tried to play lithium but couldnt figure it out so kurt got frustrated and they just broke into this song, they used this song at the end of concerts to break instruments, and on the cd of nevermind after something in the way ends theres silence for about 10 minutes and then endless nameless starts playing as a hidden track The song "Polly" was written by Kurt after reading a newspaper article about a crime that occurred in 1987 about a 14 year old girl who was kidnapped as she was leaving a concert. Her kidnapper took Polly and brought her back to his place where he s**ually assaulted and tortured her. The story actually starts back in July of 1960 when a man named Gerald Friend (who is the kidnapper of polly) abducted a girl and her brother who were hitchhiking in Sumner, Washington. I loved your reaction and id like to recomend albums "ten" by pearl jam, "dirt" by alice in chains and "doolittle" by pixies, but also more of nirvana

Polly is a dark song. It's about a real-life kidnapping of a girl in Tacoma, Washington. She was leaving a concert and this guy named Gerald Friend kidnapped, raped and tortured her. Kurt wrote it from the perspective of the kidnapper so it would be so uncomfortable for the listener and you'd never forget the story. It's an anti-rape song. Butch Vig, who produced the album, called it a haunting track. I'd agree with that. Keep rocking on your reactions. So genuine and fun seeing you discover new music. Also, Lounge Act is my favorite. Glad you loved it, too!

9:03 that’d be Dave Grohl on drums (now lead singer/guitar of Foo Fighters)

Nirvana makes BANGERS

28:28 is exactly when metri gets the appeal of grunge music

'Breed' will never fail to inject adrenaline directly into my veins. Nirvana was my adolescence. The voice of Gen X without question. Spitting in the face of the world, the unreasonable ones that insist on changing the world rather than changing to fit it. The music works especially well in a mosh pit. Except for Something In The Way... that song is only for listening to under a bridge, nodding out from heroin. Endless, Nameless was a hidden track... which worked way better when the music was on cassette and you had to just let it keep playing long past the last song to discover it. Unlabelled, unlisted madness trailing on the end of the tape.

We love it when Kurt stomps on a distortion pedal

13:20 imagine writing a chorus that just the word yeah over and over and being able to pull it off.

“Something in the way” was featured in the soundtrack of the last Batman that came out with Robert Pattinson maybe that’s why it sounds familiar (if you watched it)

when people listen to nirvana for the first time its like they found nirvana

Always here foe your Lana reactions, and now Nirvana??? This is great!!

You can tell how influential Nirvana has been for rappers through the years. They were the kings of catchiness. A beautiful blend of pop melodies with raw punk energy. The lyrics means nothing but at the same time it can mean whatever you want based on your experience. Cobain was a genius and it’s really cool to see people discover it and feel it to this day. I think the moment an artist makes you want or at least think of trying to do it yourself is an absolute win, and a Nirvana song is one of the almost everyone’s first song to learn on guitar. Legendary band

Endless nameless was actually a secret song when kurt cobain got mad when messing up recording lithium multiple times So they just started improvising and playing random things even though they didn’t care about it sounding good.

i just found you from the melanie vid, im so glad i can jam out with you for basically every song, ur vibe is immaculate (its also so crazy that people are hearing this album for the first time, ive been LIVING OFF OF IT🙌🙌)

please react to some other nirvana stuff. if you can, and react to the full mtv unplugged set they did. it was performed a few months before kurt’s death and it’s gorgeous, spine chilling and so beautiful. loved the reaction!!

I'm glad he liked Lounge Act, it's incredibly underrated

Fun facts about Kurt: 1: His sister came out as a lesbian and he was totally fine with it, but he was afraid people would bully her. 2: Kurt said he wished he was gay because he wanted to annoy homophones. (Idk if it's true, but some people say he thought he was bisexual) 3: he was a feminist and didn't like men "touching" women during nirvana concerts and once a woman got r@p3d during his performance and it made kurt stop singing, Krist and Dave stopped playing and pointed at the guy while laughing to him meanwhile kurt said "look at him!" While laughing at the guy. 4: Kurt didn't like "smells like teen spirit" and didn't understand why it was so popular. He's favorite song of his own was "Drain you" (IM SORRY MY ENGLISH AIN'T THE BEST🙏🏻😭)

Yess!! I’m so happy you did this!! if I could go back in time and see one band perform live it would be Nirvana 100% 😭

nirvana let’s go! i just know you’re gonna luv this album before even watching it edit: i was right LOL 7:35 bro was so disgusted at how good come as you are is and i couldn’t relate more, it still hits. also couldn’t agree with you more about how amazing it is discovering new music, i need to go on a music journey again. i’ve been listening to the same stuff. 36:33 LMAO yes you probably have from the batman movie with robert pattinson, at least that’s the first thing that comes to mind 42:52 totally is an acquired taste and don’t feel like you can’t be fr because this is YOUR listening and you can still love an album or artist and dislike songs from them, although it’s also hard because when Nirvana was in its prime they were playing shows and a lot of these songs were MADE for shows and moshing. it’s definitely a different experience seeing them live rather than hearing it through spotify. endless nameless is definitely a song i don’t listen to but would love seeing live if i could.

"who's on the drums?". Oh, you're about to go down a massive rabbit whole. I wish I could experience this for the first time again.

hi metri i love your vids and reactions SO MUCH! i recently discovered your channel and ive never been happier, you make my days better and i want to thank you. you also have opened my eyes and ears to new genre of music and ive learned about rhythm, cadance, and beats thanks to you. i love seeing people who appreciate music and broaden their taste, i hope your channel continues to grow. but as a lana stan, please listen to lust for life next!!! or channel orange by frank, or k-12 by melanie. keep doing you💕💕

3 videos in one day lets gooooo💪🏾💪🏾

If you loved this, you'll love Nirvana's album In Utero!! Nevermind is easily a 10/10 album, but In Utero only takes things a step further

Fiona Apple “When the Pawn…” next pleaseee metri

to explain a lil about the last song endless, nameless it was the secret track on the record (it would play after a while after something in the way) and it was them raging when they were trying to play Lithium

8:40 them riffs had bro GAGGED 🤣

you make me smile dude..."discovering new shit is beautiful"...well said

2 days ago i saw a clip of you on tiktok reacting to melanie martinez and now i’m hooked on all your videos. your vibe is so raw and you just gained a new subscriber!!

this is one of my favorite nirvana albums drain you and Polly are my absolute favorites on the album haha slowly becoming my favorite reaction channel I love that you react to a bunch of different genres cause I love all genres

I’m so glad I discovered your channel 😭, you’re genuinely super fun to watch and I love your reactions Tbh I’ve been meaning to listen to more Nirvana songs so you reacting to them makes it easier for me to follow along and reassures I won’t miss anything in the lyrics

Love that you're discovering new music bro, especially rock/grunge. Would love to see a Black Sabbath album reaction - there are a lot to choose from but Paranoid is probably the best to start with. Great video keep it up!

2 things Kurt Cobain was famous for was his crazy screaming and his crazy guitar solos, that last song is classified as noise rock and his guitar at the end he was pointing his guitar at the speakers and playing around with the feedback, those are the squeaking noises, some people think its interesting. The last song was kind of a secret bonus track.

funfact! Drain you was Kurt Cobian's (lead singer) favourite song!

you should watch lana’s live cover of heart shaped box by nirvana!!

Adding “Breed” in your library in the middle of the song is just too funny 😂 It so cool of you discovering such a masterpiece bro

YOU ARE MY NEW FAVORITE CHANNEL ON KZfaq. BIIISH. I DIDN'T EVEN WATCH THE VIDEO YET BUT THANK YOU FOR NIRVANA.

yo i actually love this so much because it reminds me of when i first listened to nirvana, i believe in you bro your gonna make it far with youtube

Recommend deftones next songs I recommend are “Change” “Teenager” “Mascara” “Cherry waves” “Rosemary” I also recommend the my chemical romance album three cheers for sweet revenge

Check out Nirvana's third album, "In Utero". I think you'll enjoy it more. more polished and easier to get into as a first time listener haha.

In Bloom plays with a lot of Jazz fundamentals, including syncopation and play with Bass and Drums. Kurt adds that "Dark Pop" feel with the vocal and guitar, and broken solo (gotta love that hang time in the middle of the guitar solo with the brief pause). Dave Grohl actually took his drumming inspiration from some 60s and 70s African American inspired funk style drumming with a lot of big hits, and big spacing between hits, giving life to his drum kit. For Kurt, the happy pop sound becomes a dark pop sound. Krist on Bass keeps a Jazz-like vibe keeping it clean and keeping steady rhythm but always echoing the guitar riffs in parallel. Dave's LESS IS MORE style allows for hang time, like the in the air of a buzzer beater 3 point shot, before the symbol crash.

Random find! Glad you enjoyed the album, as an 11/12 year old when Nirvana hit this was EVERYTHING. No playlists/skipping songs then, the album was an experience. No KZfaq lyric vids either 😂 I GUARANTEE you’ll love the Black Album by Metallica. 💯

13:00 just how Krist on bass rounds out that chorus underneath is so boss

Endless Nameless is really all the instruments just playing whatever they feel like, and in the middle of recording Kurt smashed his guitar on the floor, which is why there are a lot of distorted noises. This is the hidden song on the album, it was written improvised when Kurt was angry about problems recording Lithium. Too bad you didn't like it :( obs: You should do a react to this song played live lol (i recommend live in paramout)

SO the lead singer of nirvana died and the drummer (who is actually crazy) formed his own band (foofighters) if you like the Nirvana vibe, listen to foofighters

The last song is like a statement on the ethos of Punk rock. It's a fitting ending for Nevermind in my view

Really like the reaction, continue doing you

I literally just woke up and found 3 new Metri videos on my home page, so happy rn 🙏🫶

This album changed the world

Your reaction to drain you made my day seriously. How you got so into it after the breakdown made me happy man, truly one of their best songs. Keep on exploring music!

SCREAMEDDD THIS IS MY FAVOURITE ALBUM EVAHHHHHH

Greetings from Argentina! It is a great pleasure to see that they still appreciate good music today! I hope there are more rock albums please!

Iconic and legendary album ❤

“Why does this sound good” “I don’t know why” 😂 it was so perfect

Loved your energy in the react! Keep up with the good content. Greetings from Brazil! =D

Hey, man. I love the video, I love how you put the effort to actually vibe to it, when it wasn't even your taste at time like in endless Nameless. I also review albums and I don't have patience like you to vibe during the entire album Also I want to give some information. About the lyrics, They don't have meaning, they don't, instead of Drain who actually has meaning about Kurt's ex girlfriend, the rest don't have any meaning, since Kurt would usually write his lyrics before recording vocals, and that's why they don't have meaning. KEEP IT UP, KING ❤

DROPPING BANGER AFTER BANGER! I LOVE YOU METRI

they lean into their punk influences heavily sometimes, where the arrangement is intentionally aggressive, grating and "i just don't give a fuck" kinda vibes like a "fuck u" to the listener lol

As a longtime Nirvana fan, I hear what you’re saying about Polly and Territorial Pissings. I always skipped those songs as well as Stay Away. They’re still great songs, they just don’t hit nearly as hard as the rest. Endless, Nameless is one of those songs that were meant to be enjoyed live when they were still a touring band. I don’t know anyone who legitimately listens to the recording of that song lol. It’s meant to provide a chaotic soundscape for thrashing and moshing rather than a song to actually vibe and jam out to it. There’s a lot of backstory behind the creation of this album that I highly suggest you check out. Super stoked you enjoyed most of the album!!! Great review bro

bro this brought light to my soul

You should listen to the in Utero album next :)

brother if you want more bwnds in the channel try my chemical romance (the black parade album) as for rhe ladies, I'll suggest kali uchis again❤

bro im happy you discovered great music! lounge act was forsure my fav off this album

I’m so excited cause eventually you’ll react to their live performances and I promise you that the lives surpass the official recorded versions

you should definitely react to pierce the veil soon !!!

You should watch Melanie's movie k-12

hahaha it's always amazing to see the first reaction to nirvana, enjoy it man, good video

reaction to lounge act was so valid 🙏🙏

Try to listen to metal

A couple of things: -Endless, Nameless was originally an unlisted hidden song on some CD versions of Nevermind that was on the same track as something in the way, about 11 minutes after the song. It was a noise jam that the band played around with and recorded out of frustration because Dave Grohl kept speeding up the drumming on Lithium. You can actually hear Kurt smash his guitar in the studio and after this, it and Territorial Pissings became staples of the end of their shows when the band would trash the guitar, drums, and amps. It was included to take up extra space on CD’s and to prank people that just let their CD’s play absentmindedly without turning them off. -The drummer and backing vocalist from late 1990 to the end of the band was Dave Grohl. He’s the guitar player and lead singer of the Foo Fighters. He plays on every song on Nevermind except Polly which was actually recorded at a different session a year earlier. -The significance of this album is that it basically “canceled” a lot of bad music. In the 80’s, the radio and MTV were basically loaded with commercial pop music and bad “hair metal”. There was a lot of music like punk, hardcore, post-punk, and a lot of more melodic noise and pop music (what would be called “indie” today) that for commercial and political reasons was seen as scary and kept off the big radio stations and major labels. Nevermind came out when Soundgarden, Sonic Youth, and The Pixies squeaked through to the mainstream and over a period of five months knocked Michael Jackson off of number one in the charts and sent most of the hair metal bands back to county fairs and unemployment lines. Now you hear The Ramones and Circle Jerks in TV commercials.

Seeing people react too Nirvana gives me joy

growing up always knowing this makes me sad knowing I’ll never have this experience of hearing nirvana for the first time

you’re introducing me to music i never would have even touched, thank you!!

this was deadass me discovering grunge in grade 8

i love watching people discover music that is new to them. shit makes me smile lmao

You should listen to Dirt by Alice In Chains! They're another band from the grunge scene in Seattle in the 90s and my personal favorite out of the big 4 (Nirvana, Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, and Pearl Jam) I loved your reaction to this and would love to see more, w vid man

please do Disintegration By the cure. but its one of them albums that hits hardest in the right place and the right time (like if you're going through a rough patch, or on an over an hour long car ride)

The last song, "Endless, Nameless" sounds like that because it was recorded after a failed attempt at "Lithium". Kurt got mad, smashed his guitar and screamed his frustration into this. On old vinyls, this song played 14 minutes after the last one, sorta like a "Secret song". And to answer your questions. Yes, we do love this song because it's as raw as it can get. Kurt screaming while playing a broken guitar. It's art.

insane to see people that havent heard this album, bros been missing out lmfao. loved this video gng

You gotta do In Utero, their last album. Its sound style is a lot more grungy and raw. I know what you said about the e screaming.. but in utero is amazing, trust me you’ll love it 😭

Hey your reaction was awesome and I really respect the takes you put out (and your open mindedness) After you just listened to that ICONIC record, I recommend checking another iconic record off the list and listen to “Abbey Road” by the Beatles. It’s very special. And since you seem to vibe to beats and instrumentation, I recommend “Blood Sugar Sex Magik” by red hot chili peppers. I don’t know the second half of it but every single track in the first half (and Under the Bridge) goes SO hard. So yeah i appreciate you for reading and considering, peace✌️

Hiii, as someone that really likes Nirvana, I suggest that you react to their album “Bleach” (my second favorite album by them) and you should totally react to their interviews. I think it would be fun to watch someone like you react to other bands aswell, such as Guns N Roses, Ac/Dc, Led Zeppelin, and many others. You should also listen to “Hole” Hole is the band that his Wife is in, she’s the main singer and she has a couple good songs (my opinion)!

43:22 honestly just the energy itself is very enjoyable and the drums are keeping a somewhat steady beat so head bopping is there

ey for endless nameless. that kinda rock and a lot of the "noise" is really enjoyed for more vibe than an actual beat. like if im having a real angry day and wanna tear some stuff apart i can have that as my background music. more like a really great mood setter which i think a lot of nirvana songs can do really well

I love how u didn’t love drain you at first but by the end u seemed to. Great song

So awesome seeing you enjoy this amazing album! Thank you so much for sharing this with us all! Keep it up & Crank it up!

I knew hearing your reaction to endless, nameless would be great lmao. Personally it's probably one of my favorite songs on the album and it fits perfect as the ending of the album. I personally love the transitions into the slower more organized rifts (the part of the song where he repeats "mother") and then the second half of the song just explodes into pure fury and chaos, it's just brilliant. It's like kurt encapsulated a complete mental breakdown and loses all control and composure which can seem why the guitar rifts and drums are just going berserk and all over the place. For me it's like the parts of the song where it slows down and kurt is calling out to his mother is like a desperate act of trying to control himself and a cry for help until he no longer can't and all hell breaks loose. That's just my interpretation of the song not sure if that was the intention, a lot of kurts songs were written without an exact meaning to them but I think they should be looked at like a representation of what kurt feels and deals with and the instruments and variety in his vocals sonically convey that and paint a picture for me.

i recommend checking out in utero. also love ur reaction bro, ur such a vibe and love ur honesty. keep it up! 🔥

So happy to see more people listening to Nirvana theyre so good also I think you should check out the band The Crane Wives, their The Fool In Her Wedding Gown album specifically its sooo good, they dont have a lot of fans so itd be awesome to see you react to their music

personally I LOVE Nirvana and all of their albums!!!! Endless names less is one of my favorites but I'm just strange tbh. I have a video suggestion: watch the lives of Nirvana when they smashed the instruments on stage. That was an act they would do after performances and even though it hurts to see instruments get destroyed, it was a unique and fun way to end a show. Glad you liked it by the way it's all good, so you should listen to the other albumssssss ❤

atp i’m binge watching all your videos rn

polly was a anti rape song so thats why its slower, its meant to be more serious

If you liked something in the way, i REALLY RECOMMEND the live version from “MTV unplugged”.

I love people loving new music. Kudos bro for even listening.

This reaction was literally me 2 months ago. Coming from rap and blues taste this album was a perfect introduction to alt rock and grunge.

7:25 when you ''ride'' a badass Riff for the first time :D i was never a big Nirvana fan, but this album was very important for sure

Basically all of Nirvana's songs were based on how Kurt felt. He was a struggling heroine addict who had a lot of physcial and mental issues, and had a difficult life. That's the reason why the music sounds like nonesense. "Endless, Nameless" was a jam that broke out, because of how frustrated he was with the band not working well. Most of the lyrics were about his emotions, how he was a feminist, how he was a heroin addict, etc. Love the vid my guy, keep it up!
