officer may - smoking in a minor



released in 2003

this could be looked at as the album nirvana could've released after the in utero album if it weren't for..well...you know...

recorded a decade later...this boston threesome perfectly capture the "grunge" spirit of said band...but also adding some bits of goo-era sonic youth...some shellac (which steve albini could've very well recorded this album...but didn't)...drive like jehu...and unwound

they only released two albums (this being the second)

  1. I like this album...but it seems unlikely to me that NIRVANA would've sounded like this ever. I only hear a few similarities between the two bands
