I agree with that, but the songs are so strong that it wouldn't have mattered if you'd listened to it through a boom-box.
Exactly, for some of the same reasons I like the albums Bleach, Caress of Steel by Rush, Get you Wings by Aerosmith, and so on.

Nirvana was one of those bands that depended on raw sound, with alot of "watts" behind it. And Kurts unorthadoxed style on vocals was the raw talent that illuminated all that "Fucking Noise".
