Consisting of outtakes, demos, non-album singles, and live BBC sessions, it's a fascinating if less-than-truly essential listening experience. Highlights include the rip-roaring childhood memoir "Sliver" and its caustic companion (from a pre-Nevermind single) "Dive." There's also a brilliant cover of the Vaselines' "Molly's Lips." --Daniel Durchholz Album Description: Japanese pressing. Buying time and thwarting bootleggers, Nirvana and DGC released the rarities compilation Incesticide toward the end of 1992. Like any odds'n'sods collection, this is uneven, but that's its charm since it captures Nirvana's character better than any official album. After all, this was a band that was born equally from '70s sludge metal, bubblegum pop, post-punk artiness, and indie rock inclusiveness, each of which are apparent on this collection. 15 total tracks.

 Rating:  - truely NirvanaIf you want a nice eclectic mix of Nirvana's various sounds, this is the album for you. These older tracks will give you a great feel for the musical influences and techniques that allowed Kurt Cobain to take Nirvana to the top. Rating: - FRIGGIN' BEAST!!!!To me, this was the most awesome Nirvana album--rivalling "Nevermind," and in some ways more aggressive, innovative and totally music to drive to. "Dive," "Sliver," "Molly's Lips," "Been A Son," "(New Wave)Polly," "Hairspray Queen"--this is a must. Sheer energy, raw and amazing! Rating: - A Superb Collection Of Archive Nirvana MaterialIn 1992 the record label Geffen released this collection of outtakes, BBC sessions, and single b-sides to compete against the wave of bootleg releases. Even though is not really the band's proper third studio album, the songs contained were recorded between the years 1988/1991 and they represent some great examples of Cobain's songwriting while at the same time, the covers effectively show some of the band's influences as well. In addition to Kurt Cobain on vocals/guitar and Krist Novoselic on bass, ... Read More Rating: - MY Nirvana experience...This was MY Nirvana album I was listenening to in Jr. High... Nevermind was great, but that was the polished up multi-platinum monster that made them famous, everone heard "Come as you are" or "Teen Spirit"... but these were the gems to me "Dive", "Sliver" "Mexican Seafood"... those songs are the ones that take me back... to the good ol' days. Rating: - IncesticideThis album never got as much recognition as Nevermind or In Utero, but it can compete with both albums. There are a lot of great songs and it is an important contribution from Nirvana's short but revolutionary career.
