The best track off Nirvana's &quot;Nevermind&quot; Increase the size of your Attachments

I've been on a Nevermind kick lately, and one thing that's struck me is that it's pretty consistently good - it's kind of hard for me to pick a single track above all the others. I mean, there are about 10 possibilities out of the 12 "proper" tracks (not counting Endless, Nameless) - all except Stay Away and Something In The Way that I'm not too fond of. So, what better than start a poll about it?

In the end, I'd have to say... "Breed". It's just got that something. Grohl's ferocious drum pounding, most likely. Of course, like almost all of my music opinion, there's a possibility it'll change on a moment's notice. But anyhow.

Come As You Are gets my vote, but you're right - it's a very consistent album.

The whole album is consistently great, as you said, but In Bloom is better than great. If God had spent his time writing music instead of that boring autobiography, this is the song he would've produced.

I already listened to it twice...

BTW, I've found that the quality of Breed is quite dependent upon the volume you choose to play it at.

I was just about the post a "The best track on Nirvana's Incesticide" poll...

I say Aneurysm, although Sliver is good as well.

Bleach is a good one. I'm going to have to look up song titles. I'm terrible at remebering names but I can list track numbers.

The cover of "Where did you sleep last night?" on "Unplugged". Of their originals, "Negative Creep" followed by "Rape me".

my first thought was Credit In A Straight World until I realized it was Hole.
now it´s a toss between Breed and Lounge Act.

Someting In The Way? I think I never listened to that in a whole.

My thoughts exactly!

I haven't heard Nevermind in a loong time... Maybe that's because I don't ha... I still have it on tape somewhere...

Something in the Way? Never heard (of) it... Or is that a hidden track?

Tired of ads?

Well, my tape is a copy of someone else's CD, so maybe I just didn't like it back when I copied it, or my tape was full or something...

Anyway, I go for Lithium.

Come as you Are. But I haven't played that album in a looong time. I'd rather listen to In Utero, Bleach, or Unplugged.
