In Utero [VINYL]

Product Information

All the dynamic range of the original recordings was stripped out and replaced with loud, distorted noise. With the talented Steve Albini recording it is loud and noisy rock but crucially spliced with Cobain's mesmerising gift for melody which ensured that Nirvana were not tuneless like some of their peers - though Soundgarden had some great singles - and by far the leading grunge band. Very Ape is even more aggressive and menacing, while the noise-rock intensity of of Radio Friendly Unit Shifter is even more in effect. Celebrating 'In Utero''s 30th, the album pressed on 180-gram vinyl plus 5 b-sides and bonus tracks pressed on a 10-inch have been newly remastered from 96kHz 24-bit transfers of the original analog tapes by original album engineer Bob Weston.

This same collage is featured on the back of the album but I could never appreciate what it was on my initial copy of the album. Scentless Apprentice screams and thumps along with amazing raw power and its guitar riff was impressively written by drummer and future Foo Fighter Dave Grohl. However, it was mastered for shit (just like everything else on the Nevermind box set) so picking out the differences between the new mix and the old were nigh-impossible.Of course, effectively separating extra content from the stand-alone album minimizes this problem greatly. Final studio album from the seminal grunge band, who chose alternative noise guru Steve Albini as producer.

In fact, the final refrain of "All in all is all we are" again saw Cobain channelling his inner Beatle as it is a Lennon-like mantra and a moving and fitting last album lyric before his unfortunate and tragic death. Most of these are B-sides that have already been released, such as Moist Vagina or I Hate Myself And Want To Die, but it’s nice to have them included on an album proper. While this press is quiet,and the packaging is really stellar, the original just sounds so much better. The three LPs come housed in a nice jacket that features a selection of photos and pictures from the Super Deluxe version, and all the LPs are encased in generic anti-static sleeves. Bonus items include an angel-on-acrylic panel; 48-page book with unreleased photos; new 20-page fanzine; LA gig poster litho; 2 ticket stubs; replicas of the promo angel mobile, 3 gig flyers, all-access tour laminate and 4 backstage passes.

My only minor niggle is that a cd that is in a cardboard sleeve maybe could do with being sent out in sturdier packaging.

Originally released in 2002, Nirvana features the rare and previously unreleased studio version of 'You Know You're Right', the last song the band ever recorded, available exclusively on this compilation.
