Moop Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 My friend has just started getting me into Nirvana and finally persuaded me into buying a few of their albums. I know 'Nevermind' is pretty much a guaranteed buy, but what are Nirvanas other top albums I should maybe get? Any help would be appreciated.Oh and yes, I'm aware that I'm incredibly late on getting into Nirvana but I've just never bothered to check into them before. So don't bitch.

krissirge Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 hmmm,Nirvana has so few albums that actually something that warrants skipping...hmmskip Muddy Banks and Incesticide Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lithium Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Unplugged and Bleach. But I think you should wait a little bit with buying Bleach, you should buy Nevermind and In Utero first. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JONEZY Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 All of em!! Great band, you can't go wrong with any of them. But obviously, I'd start with Nevermind and Heart Shaped Box, and go from there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
worldwideboss Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Bleach and Unplugged are the best, IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Opax Posted December 7, 2006 Share Posted December 7, 2006 Yeah whats with the best of the boxset. I bought the boxset, I think Alice in Chains did the same thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHANGED37 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) After Nevermind get Bleach its a kickass album then the Unplugged album if you like those get In Utero but if your just getting into them I recommend just buying the best of if you like it go from there.Edit: stay away from "best of the boxset" its an excuse to rip people off! The best of the boxset is for people who cant afford the boxset although they did put a few unreleased songs on it to force those who already have the boxset to buy it.

axlslash Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I recomend Pearl Jam's album "10" over any Nirvana record. If your mind is set on Nirvana, though, do NOT get From The Muddy Banks of the Wishka. It is not good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
-Sephiroth- Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 In utero and unplugged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHANGED37 Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I recomend Pearl Jam's album "10" over any Nirvana record.Dunno about that Tens a great album but Nirvana records (cept In Utero never realy liked that) seem a little better to me maybe ive just listened to ten so much that it kinda bores me now.

wasted Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 It depends what you like. If you like proper albums then Nevermind and In Utero. But if you like sloppy punk Bleach. If you like acoustic Live in New York.Incesticide to me is more like art rock - Sonic Youth/punky.Best of then you You Know You're Right as well as the hits.To me it's In Utero and Live in New York.

pepsicoca Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 I'm a Nirvana fan but I don't really like Unplugged. It's the wild, electric side of Nirvana that I enjoy the most. You should buy their three studio albums (Bleach, Nevermind and In Utero). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lithium Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Incesticide is a compilation of B-sides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nameless_girl Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 Unplugged. I don't quite know why, but listening to that one is addictive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagnoris Posted December 8, 2006 Share Posted December 8, 2006 (edited) Bleach is definately one of my favorites, was not impressed at all with Muddy Banks. I bought Bleach it when Nevermind came out and didnt get Nevermind until later. Loved the whole album and still do.

Moop Posted December 8, 2006 Author Share Posted December 8, 2006 Thanks for the help guys. I decided to get Nevermind and Bleach for my first two albums today and if I like what I hear, I'll get In Utero or Unplugged next. So far I've listened to a bit of Bleach and have already fallen in with Negative Creep and About a Girl. I still need to get used to the other ones I listened to, though.And to those who said get the 'Best Of'... I prefer to listen to the hidden gems of albums rather than the hyped up songs. I never buy Best Of or Greatest Hits of anything (GN'R exception).Again, thanks for the help. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
