93.  In Utero. (L.P). Nirvana. 1993.
Their major label debut 'Nevermind' may have changed the world, but over-familiarity means it tends to gather dust in most homes. It was certainly Kurt Cobain's albatross, hence Steve Albini's noisenik presence on what would be Nirvana's magnificent last blast. Torn between a punk style "fuck you" to fair weather fans and REM style accessibility, their conflict only makes this record more volatile and vital. (J.B. Mojo)
