That was exactly my point. And it came off like posturing. Age has a few things to do with it.

I was born in 1982. I don't own many (if any) albums from that year, or the years around it, and have no desire to, regardless of how solid the album is, go back a lay down a slick $20 to grab up something I can get whenever. I think at a young age you aren't open to most things that have long since past and given the way CD run up against your wallet, i'd say that dropping $20 on a nirvana cd is a little much to ask.

And despite whatever arguments may arise, the album is great and because of that those wanting to distance themselves from the unwashed masses will deny to no end their love for it. Look back through these pages to see exactly what I mean.

If you seriously are suggesting that its a watered down album, then what you're going to end up doing to save face is conclude that these are all opinions that cannot be argued. But we've been down that road and I think if we're being reasonable, Nevermind is not your cup of tea, but is, by and large, a great album. Solid at the very least.

And I can't even blame swim alone for this, the money hungry journalists who are starved for something to write about brought up the carnage-fetish, B-side of Tattoo You loving heathens to write a contrary article to fill the pages of many a shill magazine (I'm looking at you Spin). When the "Ten years since Nevermind" hype ended and they needed to blow Nirvana some more i remamber one article being titled:

"Bollacks to Nevermind, Here's In Utero"

You can imagine that how the column went after a title like that. I certainly think there are some missteps on Nevermind, and I'd never say its perfect, nor do I listen to it on any sort of a regular basis, but I don't think its fair to say its sub par and above all else, it stands to be a heavy contender for oojay's original question.

No one has mentioned The Beatles, although what album could be anyones guess. Pink Floyd too. I have an Alexander o neal album. I doubt if anyone's got one of his (and you would be right not to!).

I have a very 'exclusive' collection of CD's these days, the only two I think a fair few people might have are, Jimi Hendrix - Axis: Bold as love and london calling - the clash, Although I doubt theres not someone who doesn't have them. I seriously doubt even if i wasnt here that there'd be an album every regular here owned.

Maybe I'm an exception but I know more about the 90s than about the pass 8 years when comes to music. 1996 is the best year ever for music by the way. Nevermind is full pop songs. Bleach is hardcore album. You have to able to see the dissapoint of going from only hearing Bleach to listening to Nevermind. It is a wimpy album in comparrison to the raw gritty energy on Bleach. In Utero is good by fact that everything Albini touches turns to gold. I mean the man made good Bush and Chevelle albums. I'm not trying to play into or against popular opinions. I just listen to music and communicate how I feel about.

What?

96 is dwarfed by 95 AND 97, but there is not even a close contender for the best year ever anywhere near the 90's. 1969-1975 are the golden years, and somewhere in that huge goliath of brilliant albums you will find the best year.
