Bleach, her debut, dropped her heavy metal detect roots, Nevermind was Pop, In Utero alternative rock. Incesticide sets about clearly open the punk influences from Kurt Cobain's band. It is the Nirvana-wheel with the most joyous melodies and shows the other side of the band that completely too often wrongly regarded as a producer of exclusively cynical, life-denying songs. Son of a gun, Sliver, the Vaselines cover Molly's lips - these are pieces that sound at least as powerful and skipped like The Clash or Green Day! The cover is decorated with a number of Cobain collages. In plenty of lean booklet not the lyrics be printed, but at least the former band members collages printed (Drummer wear like in the movie Spinal Tap). Maybe it's the lack of lyrics, maybe the suicide, the refrain of the very first energetic songs Dive sounds like: Those who that with me, although it is surely rather dive, dive, dive in me. Nuschelige pronunciation and enigmatic texts contributed so much to the fascination quite Nirvana at. The songs on In Utero he had mostly written under heroin influence, Cobain told in an interview. Scoffers might interject: you can hear that. As if intense experience and depth could not be achieved without drugs. Later Cobain regretted becoming another Junkie icon, as before him, Iggy Pop, David Bowie etc contradictory it was, the artist Kurdt Cobain (as he is called in the loose leaf of the album). Aneurysm with the line "I love you so much you make me sick" I held earlier for a song about Cobain's love-hate relationship to heroin. However, Cobain was at the beginning of Nirvana career not so wild it, he smoked, fearing for his voice no cigarettes. No, it's a song about an unhappy love for an ex-girlfriend. And it is one of the most intense Nirvana songs, similarly driven by the pain like You know you're right. Other songs on the album, Aero Zeppelin and Mexican seafood is not necessarily the strongest songs Cobain, but they fit very well in this collection of B-sides, demos and BBC sessions a. The album seems consistent, fairly homogeneous and not as a Resterampe or stopgap between Nevermind and In Utero, as it was perhaps at that time misunderstood by some. An essential, brilliant Nirvana album!
