JKing92
09.17.21 | I'm not a huge fan of Bleach. I don't hate it by any means (in fact, songs like "Blew" and "About a Girl" are pretty great), but for me, it doesn't compare much to Nevermind, let alone In Utero. |

09.17.21 | They’re all 1 for one reason or another. |

09.17.21 | Ghandhi's ranking was actually mine back in middle school. But then, once I became a high school freshman, I began to play In Utero more frequently, and soon recognized it as my personal favorite. Has been ever since. |
rabidfish
09.17.21 | is there any other way, really?
don't answer that. |
zakalwe
09.17.21 | Remember that first Nevermind listen?
Unbeatable but yeah In Utero is the better album. |
JKing92
09.17.21 | Oh, totally. The first time I heard Nevermind when I was 13, it totally rocked my world. At various points earlier in life, I was a fan of artists like Smash Mouth (I am unashamed to admit that Astro Lounge was the first album my parents ever bought me, though I haven't made a conscious decision to listen to it in years), Eminem, Outkast, Busta Rhymes, Green Day (American Idiot was the first album I ever bought with my own money), System of a Down, and Korn, and Nirvana was a big turning point, as I began to get more into '90s alt-rock. In Utero may be the one I like the most, but Nevermind definitely made the bigger impact on what music I was listening to. |

09.17.21 | Nice one J.
I always come back to my Nirvana experience on sput so here goes for the billionth time lol
1991 was a year where I was definitely ‘in tune’ with music to a point it started to resonate and have an impact on a level that went beyond mere enjoyable entertainment and I understood there was something deeper to be found.
I’d had the Michael Jackson obsession stage around 1987, the ‘appreciation’ of certain ‘classics’ and a ‘hang on a sec music is amazing’ moment after The KLF released the White Room which is the first album I really felt was something different that I connected to.
Music was ‘big’ it was dinosaur acts from the past ‘Rolling Stones’ ‘The Who’ among the mammoth acts of the present U2 in among a waning Acid House scene that had given rise to a lot of new electronic music. The current scene like the scenes that had gone before (‘punk’ ‘mod’ ‘goth’ ‘metal’) were completely intangible to me then. I just didn’t relate.
Then very early 1992 I saw the Nirvana video for Lithium being played at one of the UKs first ‘malls’ and I was stunned.
Literally feet planted to the floor, mouth agape, mesmerised by the image on the screen of Cobain, Novoselic and Grohl.
There was just an instantaneous shock of something landing within that song that was immediately relatable and which given that back then it was relevant and modern was so incredibly exciting. I can still remember it with crystal clear clarity how invigorating it was.
A few days later I was given a copy (cassette tape) of Nevermind and it changed my world. It’s the reason I type this on a music website now. It was fucking monumental. Absolutely monumental.
That’s not rose tints. That’s real.

09.17.21 | My dad threw me Nevermind's cassete, which he had bought on those home magazines/catalogues, because some dude from work told him it was good shit. Dad hated and threw that thing to bed with contempt saying I might dig that XD changed my life (and still does) |
DoofDoof
09.17.21 | I second that emotion Zak |
cold
09.17.21 | Though it's not an actual album, Incesticide goes fucking hard |
DDDeftoneDDD
09.17.21 | lately I jam Bleach on white vinyl now and then and have a real blast guys, don't despise it XD |
JKing92
09.17.21 | For me, if it were included in this ranking, Incesticide would fall between Nevermind and Bleach. "Aneurysm" is one of my favorite songs they ever did. |
grannypantys
09.17.21 | this ranking might be correct but I listen to Bleach the most |
JKing92
09.17.21 | Nothing wrong with that. To each their own. |
