While everyone may have heard of Nirvana and their influence a
thousand times over, it is usually their sophomore album
“Nevermind” that garners all the kudos for
kick-starting the grunge movement. But Nirvana’s best album
happens to be “In Utero.”
“In Utero,” the final studio release that he made
before his suicide, was Cobain’s favorite Nirvana album. More
consistent in song quality than the top-heavy
“Nevermind,” “In Utero” sees Cobain’s
maturing songwriting find it’s most emotionally honest outlet
in the spared down production and grating vocals and guitars.
“In Utero” is truly Nirvana’s opus of brilliant
rock ‘n’ roll alienation.
