Amazon.co.uk Review
One of the defining moments of the 1990s, despite happening at the start of the decade. The guitars start jittering, then "BOOMA-ABOOMA-ABOOMA-ABOOM!", the drums kick in and grunge splatters itself all over a generation of MTV viewers. "Smells Like Teen Spirit" will surely always speak to alienated teenagers, while giving them something to thrash around their rooms to, kicking the whole thing off as it means to go on. "Come As You Are" is dark and twisted, while "Lithium" and "In Bloom" show Kurt Cobain's often overlooked sense of humour, and "Stay Away" highlights the best way to shred your vocal chords. It's nigh-impossible not to love this album, and it will remain Nirvana's most affectionately remembered work. It's just a shame that a misplaced sense of "selling out" (stupid term if ever there was one) led to such an internal rejection of "...Teen Spirit". A work of genius, no question. --Emma Johnston

Customer Reviews

Magnificent
Quite simply the best peice of music to exist today. Each and every song is an epic and will leave you listening to it over and over again. Cobains voice is powerful throughout the album and for me its hard to pick out a favourite song but it will have to be "Drain You". If you like music and havent heard this album yet, then you must. it was the beginning of a passion for rock music for me and it still gets played very loudly on my hi-fi.

Catchy.....
This does have a few catchy moments but there are big limits in the sound because of the dodgy guitar playing. full credit to the slow passages which appear tight and crisp, the loud sections are drunk party toons, I have not explored yet but my mate reckons this lot nicked their ideas from The Pixies.not really a sit and listen to sort of record this but there are major signs of a full depressive breakdown.. full credit to Dave the drummer Excellent work sir! PS if you want to check the Seattle sound, then I recommend Pearl Jam.

Overhyped Pap
Reviews for a product of this nature mean nothing as the buyer already knows what they are going to buy. However this album and Nirvana in total are good for teenage years, for those who think they are rebellious and cool/unapproachable. Once this stage has passed, so too should the Nirvana hyping. They truely were an ordinary band who inspired very little.
