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

 Nirvana's Finest Moment December 27, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Back in 1991, Nirvana were not really considered as gods of garage music, with Kurt Kobain not really making an impact on the music scene. This all changed when this amazing album came along, 12 of the best tracks you could find on one album, from trashing punk right though to more sombre affairs, Nevermind really defined who Nirvana was, and who they were going to be.
Some of their finest moments are here, from all out rock of Smells Like Teen Spirit, through to the rather more thoughtful Polly. Some great stops along the way include the rather cool In Bloom, brilliantly written by Kurt; Stay Away, with it's angry guitar riffs and cool lyrics and Something In The Way, a sort of ballad. There's also the rather singable Come As You Are, with it's excellent plucked theme.
This is a great album, and has to be part of the classic albums of all time, it's hard to describe what feelings you get from this, but it's good fun to dance to, talk to friends and even have on while doing the cleaning, that's how versatile it is. I think it's their best album, very close with In Utero not so far behind. Kurt's voice is excellent and his talent shines here, a real classic rock voice.
This is a must have, even if you don't like grunge and garage, this will appeal to you, on many levels.
what? December 18, 2008
Was just scrolling thru'the lists looking 4 some inspiration when I came across this and saw the average rating - are you serious?! Do the people who put 1 star know anything about music? Or is it just some kind of snobbish provocation-too many people like it so it must be rubbish? Anyway,if there really exists anyone who hasnt got this already,get it.If you cant find a period ( or even a moment!) of your life where you dont like this,go and take up gardening or train spotting instead..
Magnificent October 24, 2008
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..... September 26, 2008

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 September 11, 2008

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.
