Reviews (page 15 of 15)

The highs are very high, but the lows are now great. Maybe if I was born in the late 70s and had that teenage angst or if I liked grunge rock more I'd feel more strongly about this album, but this just isn't for me. However, the first three tracks are great! 2.5 stars but bumping down to 2 because I don't think I'm gonna return to this

Heard it plenty already thanks

I always wanted to listen to this album and never did! Amazing guitar and drums, but overall a bit too rock for my taste

as overrated as it can be

Oh well Whatever Nevermind...

Could be handy sometimes

About what I expected, I only liked the songs I know.

Meh. Inte min stil. Gillar inte Kurts röst har jag kommit på. En del OK låtar men överlag sämre än väntat.

Well it still doesn't do much for me but i very much get the appeal now

BORING

Only because of influence

why live albums?

I liked Nirvana when Nevermind first blew up. I like their quieter moments better so prefer Something in the Way and Lithium. I mostly find them almost manic-sounding now and they kinda stress me out. That being said, Nevermind is iconic and inspired a generation of grunge bands. 3/5 for that. 2/5 me wanting to listen to it. 1/5 album cover.

Better than some of the new crap, but still not my style

Früher mal gehört, nicht wirklich geil, Grunge halt

I like Smells Like Teen Spirit

While it has 2 great songs, there's just a lot of screaming. Look, maybe I'm not a grunge person, but I've also never been a fan of songs that sing the same line over and over, whether it's Bill Wither's "Lovely Day", The Police's "Message in a Bottle", or Nirvana's "Bleed"

Like some of it is cool, but it mostly makes me nervous so

Previously on me reviewing music or something idk what to call this. "...On a positive, this album definitely belongs on the list. I can't think of a more popular album that I've skimped out on listening to." Wasn't expecting to come full circle so soon. When I first started out with listening to music I didn't have any bands that I was definitively into, but really wanted to be able to talk about music. The result was me briefly latching onto this band and album as a way of proving that I knew my stuff. The thing is, I had only listened to a snippet of Smells Like Teen Spirit and knew next to nothing about Nirvana, which resulted in some of the most embarrassing conversations that I've ever had in my life. To this day I've refused to touch this band and album out of shame. So... Now that I'm finally listening to it... I can say with confidence... That it's alright. The big hits are pretty good, but everything else drags super hard, especially during the second half. While I've criticised some of the other "hardcore" albums I've encountered on this list for not being nearly tough enough, I thought the restrained and pensive sound of this album was quite neat. I'm interested to know more about what the lyrics are getting at in the future - I couldn't make out what Kurt was saying half of the time.

Not my style.

An occasional listen to, at best for me.

Not to my taste, very shouty, did get a few head bangs tho tbf

This was better than the other two albums of theirs that are on this list, but that's not saying very much since I gave them both a 1. This is not a 1 only because of "Smells Like Teen Spirit".

Очень однообразный

5/10, rounding up to a 3 star. The hits hit hard, but I feel like the rest of the album wasn’t much compared to the hits, they were just there. None of the songs were ‘bad’, which is why I am rounding up, but most of the songs (except the few hits) stuck out. They more acted as filler for the like 3 or 4 amazing songs.

Solid album, but not my vibe

A few good tunes here. Not the whole album for me.

Obviously know the album cover and band name Know the songs but surprised to find them here as I never could place them I don’t like the screaming I like Come As You Are, Something In The Way

Smells Like Teen Spirit...the anthem for a generation. I know Nirvana released an indie album before this but if we're only counting major label debuts, Smells Like Teen Spirit is a contender for best first song off a debut album. Come As You Are is my favorite song from this album. Kurt Cobain's voice is annoying. Smells Like Teen Spirit, In Bloom and Come As You Are is a really strong start to an album. Lithium was a big hit for them but it's the weakest song from this album so far. This album peaked at Smells Like Teen Spirit and is downhill from there. Territorial Pissings is punk. On A Plain sounds like every song on the Singles soundtrack. Everything in the early 90s was grunge and gangsta rap. Endless, Nameless is the worst song on the album. It's their take on metal and it's terrible. And it drags on forever and it has a a full minute of guitar distortion and some weird background sound.

I am not a fan of Nirvana and this album didn't change my mind. Most of it is what I consider irritating music. The only track I was able to tolerate was Polly even though it is not a very good song.

Nostalgic, but still never one I’ll reach for.

Definitely not my type of music

Too much screaming in songs. I like his softer songs. Sounds a lot like cars crashing especially in the last song, endless nameless.

No denying what this album did. I feel like it's just been played to death. I haven't listened to it in 25 years probably. My feelings are still meh.

Boring

I hadn't heard Breed before and I quite liked it, but all the rest of this is noisy, whiny grunge rock, which is redundant when describing Nirvana. I prefer early Butthole Surfers, honestly.

Honestly not my favorite, I like a lot of the songs on there because I've grown up listening to them, but they just sound angry. I like happier music these days. Very very talented group of musicians though there's no denying that

Gut begonnen und immer schlimmer geworden...

okayish

Prefer in utero Got a lot of deserved hate on airbuds for this.. Glad to know where my friends stand 🙏

A bunch of good songs, a bunch of garbage.

some song really loved them, others just ok. Expected more for a 1001 album

It was OK. Nothing especially groovy

It's hard to find words that are kind, so I guess I'll just say, "Oh well, whatever, Nevermind."

too angry. Maybe repeated listening's would have helped but just didn't like it. Never did.

I do not like this album much more now than I did back when I first heard it, but I am finding things that I do like about it here and there - I like more than others the slower (and less screamier) songs.

Amazing grunge iconic album. I just not sure I love grunge. :/

I was bummed. I had heard such great things about this album and maybe it’s a sector of rock that I just don’t enjoy but this was a hard listen. I really liked the first 4 songs but everything after that felt flat and annoying. I hope there’s another nirvana album to give this band a second chance!!

Not my jam. Never was. Always too hard for me, even when younger.

Smells Like Teen Spirit is good ofc and Breed was kinda cool. the middle of the album gets kinda boring with a BIG SKIPPY on Polly cause fuck that. endless nameless he screeeeem It's OK to eat fish 'cause they don't have any feelings ig

Songs are mostly anxiety inducing

Dare to go against the flow of popular opinion! This album was neither nirvana or an enjoyable listen for me. I'll continue to pay it nevermind.

Not a huge Nirvana fan. Only like 3 songs on the album.

I know this is meant to be a really good album but it's not mega interesting to me tbh. It's just unpolished and Cobain was a mediocre lyricist and singer at best.

Nope. Just screaming nonsense mostly. Given 2 as it’s slightly better than most rap.

The highs are high and the lows are low. Very off kiltered album. It's got some classics but not much else

Nostalgic and iconic, it certainly brought me back to my very early childhood. I remember after Kurt died not understanding how his voice could still be on the radio. I guess that, when I was 4, I thought all songs on the radio were performed live. Anyway, not my thing. Grunge in general. I love their unplugged album because it sounds so much nicer than the heavy distortion. To me, that is. Obviously this is in a lot of people’s top 10.

3/10 Top 3: Come as you are In bloom Something in the way

Screechy/screamy vocals and guitars. Not for me

Limited musically and vocally. Immature noisy garage band sound. Is great for hormonally challenged teenagers who need to let steam out in a repetitive monocord rumble on Friday nights. Boring if I may. Their album cover is the punch!

I was never able to like Nirvanas music

Gave a fresh listen, can certainly see why it was a pivotal album, however it also confirms for me that grunge is not to my taste.

Nostalgic but not my fav

Heter vad jag känner om albumet.

Couple of decent tracks fluffed out with lots of filler.

Nope. Don’t like grunge.

Too hard rick

Overall found this a bit down, whingey and wallowing for my tastes. Even the loud parts seem a bit miserable. I quite like a sad song, but the vibe of this album just isn't my thing. Really surprised how much I struggled with it given the classics on there.

Nevermind is the second studio album by American rock band Nirvana, released on September 24, 1991 by DGC Records. Produced by Butch Vig, it was Nirvana's first release on the DGC label, as well as the first to feature drummer Dave Grohl. Nevermind features a more polished, radio-friendly sound than the band's prior work, and is therefore considered a significant departure from their debut album, Bleach. Nevermind is often credited with initiating a resurgence of punk culture among teenagers and young adults of Generation X.[3] In addition, it was responsible in part for bringing both grunge and alternative rock music to a mainstream audience and ending the dominance of hair metal.[4] The album has sold over 30 million copies worldwide, making it one of the best-selling albums of all time.

2 att best

I just don’t enjoy this at all

not for me, not enough range

Awful tone

no me gusta este estilo para nada

I don’t like this band and i don’t care

i literally can’t listen to this type of music.

SO. FUCKING. OVERRATED. More so than any Beatles album.

що ж... нірвана це вже пройдений етап моїх музичних вподобань, який не пережив випробування часом. так, цей важливий альбом для розвитку гранжу, але він переоцінений так само як і гурт. одна зірочка за пісня Something in the way

I keep hearing the same melody over and over.

The most overrated band and album of my generation. Crammed down our throats ad nauseam. There was so much better music in the genre at the time. If Cobain hadn’t “offed himself” this would be a side note in music history.

Não gostei. Eu não gostei porque não faz meu tipo, apenas duas músicas, que são os maiores sucessos, que curtir mais ou menos

Why would you suggest this to someone

If he lives, this is remembered as the embarrassing slop of pointless noise it was.

Kurt Cobain saved music that fateful day

Pedestrian rock stuff - taking all of the rough edges off punk and metal and throwing it together in a blender. Gunge might be a more appropriate genre title. My years of being inspired by - or interested in - sad singers navel-gazing are far behind me now, so there is not much here to draw me in. The music is basic, and the voice grates after a while. And Killing Joke wrote the best tune on here.

lo siento no me ha gustado NADA, me ha dado dolor de cabeza

Still don’t like it. Unfortunately it still doesn’t click for me - when it’s good it’s good but the rest just really bores me. Tbf it took my dad 50 years to like nirvana so maybe by the time we’re at album 10950 I may give it 5 stars. At least I now know Kurt Cobain’s willy is good. I hate shouting songs so much.

Absolutely fucking boring album from the most overrated band ever.

Nema šanse da ću preslušavati ovo, tu povlačim crtu 😂 znam album, stoga nema ni potrebe. 1/5, 1.5/10

This album doesn't hold up decades later. I think we were all swindled, I mean what on earth were the North American youth so angry about in the early 90s? We need to seriously rethink this album's spot in the Canon.

Wasn’t a fan of this album in the 90s either.

No. Other than Smells like Teen Spirit, which is mid. The music on this album is trash.

The group that thought 6 random notes is a tune!

I could make an essay on why I don't like this album but it boils down to: I don't think the mythos surrounding this album matches how drab and flat it is. It's a poppy album in disguise, it's a rebel yell that feels like a logo now, it's simply not compelling in any way and I've just never been more disintrested in an album that by and large I should like. Come as You Are is okay tho

incapable de le finir ça m'a donné mal à la tête RIP Kurt

never been a fan of Nirvana. never bothered listening to the whole album until today. the ambivalence i've had toward Nirvana and the existence of this album is slowly turning to active hatred with each song. the only redeeming quality of the majority of these songs is that they are short. would give 0 stars if i could.

Overproduced, overrated, commercial radio-friendly buttrock for the masses.

Utter utter shite. Which is one utter less shite than any of their other albums.

Started the whole grunge rock scene. Wonder if they would have been so popular without the passing of Kurt Cobain.

Didn’t listen. Not my style

Music to kill yourself by

In heutiger Zeit wäre das Coverbild undenkbar..., Headbanger Gitarrenrock, Gesang eher weniger hörenswert, wer's mag....

I really thought i would like this! I'm disappointed as hell.. Couldn't even finish it

Einfach nur Lärm! Grauenvoll! 1/5

don't like Nirvana

Oh God no.

Inte min genre.

Wanted to turn it off immediately, but I listened to the first track and the beginning of the second to give it a chance. Hated it.

gefällt mir nicht

While I appreciate the album, and understand the success of Nirvana, this just reinforces my dislike of the music. It just isn’t for me. I do not like Kurt’s guitar or singing. Overall I would rate it 4/5, but since it’s my personal notation, 1/5.

Horrible. Aweful guitars. I think Kurt lost his tuner. Vocals are as horrible as Chris Martins. Songwriting is dull, Something in the way may be the worst song ever written. Dave Grohl is awesome btw.

Me revienta las pelotas.

It's meh, I did like the "Smells like Teen Spirit" song though

Didn’t like

Let’s see ...... no let’s not. Can’t believe this even is an album. No rhythm, no rhyme no pattern or time ... spent listening to this. Tried to be positive and pick one good song, but don’t have one to list. Do love the album jacket. There some thing positive.

Tuneless nonsense
