Wishful thinking on ilxors part methinks..

about right for a poll like this imo

Liked it a lot at the time, never need to hear it again

too high

i did enjoy the wishful thinking though

too high my arse

FAR too high. That better?

Even though I voted for it, it's fine where it is.

FAR too high.

Actually, yes, Kurt was far too high when he made this album...

Bleach was my highest-placed Nirvana album, I think appropriately for a metal poll.

Will Pearl Jam place higher with anything?

LJ, do you like Shrewsbury?

I love Nevermind, even though I haven't heard it in a few years. I think it's one of their better albums. But I didn't vote for it, because I thought it had no place in a metal poll.

Yeah, Bleach is the only Nirvana album that belongs in a poll like this. Nevermind was always going to show somewhere, though, so this is a reasonable placing. [n.b. I like both albums, I just don't think Nevermind is that heavy]

Nevermind is just as heavy as Sabotage fwiw

I've had reservations about the production, but no one was moved to veto it. Certainly heavier than MSP. I might be one of the few people who didn't much like it when it came out as I preferred Bleach, and about 40 other albums that came out in 1991, but over the years I had to admit I like it more and more.

I'm listening to Fudge Tunnel right now and it reminds me a lot of Bleach.

Fudge Tunnel were briefly touted as the UK's answer to Nirvana (Helmet would be a better comparison)

http://www.metal-archives.com/images/2/7/6/8/2768.jpg

LOL at Nirvana placing in between Drudkh and Burning Witch.

Only on ILM...

Line up:
Edgy 59 - vocals
Stephen O'Malley - guitars
G. Stuart Dahlquist - bass
Jamie Sykes - drums

Full album title is "Crippled Lucifer (Seven Psalms for Our Lord of Light)".

Burning Witch: Main Performer
Stephen O'Malley: Artwork, Guitar
Steve Albini: Engineer

Greg Anderson had left by then

Wow, these songs are slow and long!

Curiously enough the drummer who I was playing with today was wearing a Fudge Tunnel t-shirt. Never been that keen on the local rawk, though.

In Utero > Nevermind > Bleach

Yes, a huuuuuge departure from O'Malleys typical work.

xxp

All music ever >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> In Utero > Nevermind > Bleach

^ Fixed!

A lot of the tracks date to the very early 80s but the band never got to record an album despite being part of the NWOBHM scene. They were one of the few black sabbath influenced NWOBHM bands. Influenced lots of doom bands.
