Nirvana ”In Utero” (1993) - Track by Track Debate

Episode 69 covers the third and final Nirvana studio album, 1993's "In Utero." Nirvana intended to depart from the more polished sound of their previous album, Nevermind (1991), with a greater range of sounds and moods. To capture a more abrasive and natural sound, they hired engineer Steve Albini to record In Utero over two weeks in February 1993 at Pachyderm Studio in Cannon Falls, Minnesota. The lyrics and album packaging incorporated medical imagery that conveyed frontman Kurt Cobain's outlook on his publicized personal life and Nirvana's newfound fame. Mark, Kevin, Alex, and Chris take you on a historical journey surrounding the album as well as share our favorites and not-so favorites from the record. We go on a deep dive track-by-track listen of this album as well as share personal stories of discovering Nirvana's "In Utero." Tune in next week for Episode 70 for a wrap-up Nirvana discussion episode where we reflect on what we've gathered from listening to the entire Nirvana studio album discography.
