Bleach got great reviews at the time, but it was not one to go mainstream.

I was mainly commenting about the way it was seen through the eyes of other popular bands and artist of the time. (But I will admit) I also assumed Bleach as being a significant and groundbreaking album into grunge concerning its popularity as well.
I understand the impact Nevermind made and had at the time of its release compared to Bleach. "And I didn't buy Bleach until after Nevermind was released myself"

.
But was it really that irrelevant of an album until Nevermind was released?
I would hold into account Nirvana changing their labels ('89) original release, from Sub Pop records to Geffen Records in '92 had a lot to do with it as well.
