No one else is gonna mention Incesticide?? It's a great album. Nirvana had a ton of other great songs that never made it onto studio albums

I'll be honest, I think I only listened to that album once. Nothing really stood out to me as being a great Nirvana track, which I suppose is the whole point of the album.

"Dive", "Hairspray Queen", "Aero Zeppelin", and "Aneurysm" are probably the awesomest Nirvana songs, all from Incesticide. Then there's two more of their most awesome songs, "Pen Cap Chew" and "If You Must" on With the Lights Out.

In Utero = Bleach > Incesticide = With the Lights Out > Nevermind

I like Bleach and In Utero pretty equally, and Incesticide and With the Lights Out are both collections of unreleased songs.

Devin Townsend - Dark Matters (2014)

Yeah I dunno, I just can't get into this album. The original Ziltoid album was a perfect blend of story telling through songs, this is just a weird combination of riffs with narration, and the occasional song or chorus. The only song I really enjoyed was "March of the Poozers" and I think that's because it's the first actual song off the album. I tried both the dialogue and dialogue free version and neither worked for me. Oh well I still have Casualties of Cool and Sky Blue to enjoy.

I agree completely. I was expecting something different than what was delivered. But, with a man like Devin Townsend, one bad album is fine when you have so many other great albums released around the same time, so it's not like a huge loss. However, it's a shame that the Ziltoid sequel didn't live up to the hype it got. I still listen to it every now and again, but it lacked the actual music.

Only listened to and only have the 3 nirvana studio albums, and I agree. Bleach is my personal favourite but it's just as good as In Utero. Bleach and In Utero > Nevermind any day.

BADBADNOTGOOD & Ghostface Killah - Sour Soul (2015)

I can't say I'm as disappointed as other people because I'm not a big Ghostface Killah fan so I was really just going into this for some more BBNG, but even they seemed to be on autopilot for this collaboration. I can definitely see people who had issues with BBNG's change in style with III being further disappointed and worried for the trio, and even though I enjoyed that album more than a lot of people, their stuff on here really sounds like it could have been done by anyone. The guest spots on here are probably the highlight of the album, and occasionally Ghostface Killah drops a sparse verse that showcases the talent people say he has, but it still doesn't make me want to go back and listen to his discography. It's also a pretty shockingly short album, clocking in at just over 30 minutes and I think could have benefited from a slightly longer runtime to give BBNG something to do.

I have it on CD, but I've not listened to it yet. Might do it later.
