    Nevermind needs the albini treatment. Re-master for the 20th anniversary? Unplugged will forever be my favorite though. It has been such an interesting road I have traveled with this band. I got into them when Kurt died. I was in 6th grade living in the middle of nowhere Missouri no Internet. It took the mans death for my young mind to realize what I missed out on. Changed my life. I hope this made sense. Typing on my iPhone while drinking

    In Utero
    These cuts are leaving creases. Trace the scars to fit the pieces, to tell the story, you don't need to say a word.

    in utero, if only because it has some of the best 'sounding' drums of any album ever released by any band. ever. (in my opinion)

    I've always prefered In Utero to Nevermind. The first six songs on Nevermind are great and I like On A Plain as well....but I could leave the rest.

    In Utero by a fair margin. Nevermind is overrated.

    I loved Nevermind when it first came out but I gotta go with In Utero. It is to Nirvana what Vitalogy is to Pearl Jam.
    I smile, but who am I kidding...

    Nevermind blew my mind when I first saw SMTS for the first time on MuchMusic. It quite literally changed my life and gave me the "YES! This is what I've been waiting for!!". I was a metal fan all my life, but after Nirvana hit me like a ton of bricks, I got rid of most of my metal shit (except Metallica). It had the sound I dug (except for the soloing noodlers), but the comical imagery was dumb to me. So Nevermind will always hold a special place in my heart.

    That being said, the opening line of IU; "teenage angst has paid off well", alone, makes me like it better. It's raw. It's unproduced. It's a bigger budget version of Bleach.

    If it was to come down to songs? Breed, no contest.

    Nevermind is more of a singles album while In Utero is just brilliant throughout and far more cohesive.

    I really can't decide, I like them both, but I'll have to go with Nevermind...

    Kurt put a lot of emotion in every song he sang...

    Wish you were here...

    of the two, i would take In Utero. but i love incesticide


    exactly! Dive, Blew, Aneurysm....

    of the 2 in the OP i'd say In Utero easily. Nevermind still has some great songs on it and probably has more harmony but i like In Utero a lot more musically.

    I used to have cdr of Kurt's version of the album, Geffen remixed and changed the track order....
    don't compete; coexist

    what are you but my reflection? who am i to judge or strike you down?

    "I will promise you this, that if we have not gotten our troops out by the time I am president, it is the first thing I will do. I will get our troops home. We will bring an end to this war. You can take that to the bank." - Barack Obama

    when you told me 'if you can't beat 'em, join 'em'
    i was thinkin 'death before dishonor'

    Aneurysm is my favourite NIrvana song...
    Believe me, when I was growin up, I thought the worst thing you could turn out to be was normal, So I say freaks in the most complementary way. Here's a song by a fellow freak - E.V
