NIrvana - Incesticide

This is a great compilation that serves to 'bridge' the time period between 'Bleach' and 'Nevermind' (although there is a little 'Nevermind' material on here)




One can hear Cobain evolving from his Classic Rock/ Metal sound on Bleach to the more 'Pixies-like' sound they would become famous for later.

'Sliver' is easily the song that best showcases this change as Cobain had even written it as sort of a kiss-off to Sub-Pop from my under-standing.  Also as the only real single on this album I think it is the best!




The other two really good songs on here are 'Aero-Zepplin', which is a tribute to '70s hard rock and sounds a little like Led Zepplin and 'Aneurysm' which is very popular due to its totally rocking chorus.  Seriously I think of all of Nirvanas songs only 'Smells like Teen Spirit's chorus rocks more then 'Aneurysm's!!!
