Pros: Good mix of hard rock anthems, gritty punk, and moving soft songs. Cons: Overproduced
To say commercial expectations for Nirvana's second album Nevermind were low would be a massive understatement. Geffen records hoped the album would sell 250,000 copies. Four months after its release, it was selling 300,000 copies a ...
Pros: A bunch of good songs Cons: Some bad vocals and production = some bad songs
Before I start my review, I would like everyone to know that this review is coming from a teenager that was too young to participate in the whole grunge era of the early 1990s. So when reading this review, just remember that I may have ...
Pros: Everything! Cons: People might not like the negativity portrayed throughout the album
Nirvana will forever be remembered because of Kurt Cobain. Cobain was perhaps the most controversial rock star of this decade. At the peak of his fame, he apparently shot himself, leaving behind his wife (who, of course is Courtney Love), daughter,...
Pros: Non conforming rocking out soul giving music. Cons: The time it took for me to find out that it has a hidden track.
Nirvana... this band has a place right next to The Beatles, The Who, The Beach Boys, and all other major influential rock bands. Nirvana changed rock, in such a way that it was never the same again. Kurt Cobain the front man of this grunge band, ...
Pros: Some great songs, some good songs. Cons: VERY overrated.
(From an unpublished New York Times Ethicist Column) Q: I'm the lead singer and guitarist of this rock band from the Northwest. We released our debut album on an independent label a few years ago and it was cheaply produced. Now we've been signed to a ...
Well, journal, looks like it's you and me again tonight. Which is fine. DGC -- an imprint of David Geffen I believe (note to self: look this up) -- has just sent over a pressed copy of a new CD from some band in Aberdeen, Wash. Nirvana, Nevermind. ...
I remember when this album came out, it truly was the voice of my generation. I was going along listening to nothing but classic rock with a little rap thrown in (when I wanted to think I was cool). Then one day I walked by my friends brothers bedroom ...
Pros: Great melodies that have a way of worming into your subconsciousness Cons: The slower songs
From what I can tell, it seems like in certain circles Nirvana's major-label debut "Nevermind" has fallen victim to a Beatles "Sgt. Pepper's"/"Revolver"-style revisionism. You know, where critics wake up one day and suddenly realize, "you know what, X ...
Pros: Mammoth sound, cutting voice, strong melodic hooks. Appealing in its simplicity. Different for its time. Cons: The second half sounds tired in places. I hear no mysticism in Kurt's lyrics.
Here are Pyfrs basic beliefs about Nevermind, specifically its place in music history and its accomplishments. The success of Nirvanas second album had as much to do with the state of the music industry then as it did with Kurt Cobain ...
Pros: Lyrics, Fun and emotional, musicianship is superb Cons: It isn't as good as In Utero
**pointless rambling, probably safer to skip it** Yes I know Epinions hardly needs yet another 5 star review of Nevermind. And frankly I didnt actually intend to write one until just recently. You see on my last review of Pearl Jams ...
Nirvana is a wonderful band that set the pace for modern day hard rock/punk rock/indie/whatever. Im sure a lot of people say this, but I would just like to re enforce it: Nirvana was far ahead of their time. At that time in the 90s, there were only...
Pros: Strong first half, a good mix of pop melody and punky force throughout Cons: Second half is very hit and miss
I suppose by now, most everyone knows the story of Nirvana, Nevermind, and the Seattle Sound. But, for those of you that don't, here's an abridged version. It was 1991. The 80's were over, and Hair Metal was starting to decline after enjoying an ...
Pros: This album is absolutely awesome Cons: Endless, Nameless is not on every copy
Nevermind is one of those quintessential albums that without your life is meaningless. It's awesome. From the most well known guitar riff of the 1990s, to the song that is entirely built on a lie, this album is great. Released in 1991, ...
Pros: Awesome, almost flawless rock music. Great poetry. No filler. Plenty of hits. Memorable riffs. Cons: Despite all the praise I gave it, the media attention is still WAY too much.
You've probably read at least half a dozen opinions on this album and you're likely sick to your stomach from hearing the first few riffs of Smells Like Teen Spirit. My purpose for writing this review is based on timing. It's April the 8th. It's ...
