Nirvana In Utero

2013, With its 1991 predecessor NEVERMIND having sold some 30 million copies, singlehandedly returning honest rock'n'roll to the top of the pop charts, IN UTERO was essentially the first record Nirvana would make with any expectations from the public. So from the opening quasi-shamble melodics of ,,Serve The Servants" through the bittersweet closing strains of ,,All Apologies", IN UTERO was the sound of the most incredible yet conflicted rock'n'roll band of the era at the peak of its powers coming to terms with a generational spokes-band mantle they'd never seen coming-and ultimately surmounting these struggles to make the record they needed to make. As Rolling Stone's David Fricke said in his review at the time, IN UTERO is a lot of things-brilliant, corrosive, enraged and thoughtful, most of them all at once. But more than anything, it's a triumph of the will. This edition of the unwitting swansong of the single most influential band of the 1990s features more than 70 remixed, rare and unreleased recordings.
