Nevermind had more of an impact on me, it helped pave the way to musical discoveries far beyond that over the years. So Nevermind has more of an emotional connection with me. Though it is my least favorite Nirvana albums, not because of the songs which I think are great, but the calculated production and gloss over it got. "Bleach" was more raw, but not as great in the songs department, It was a good album, but hinted at what Nevermind would come out and do, but it is now just okay to me. In Utero was more raw and in debt to the Noise Rock scene at times. Nevermind just sticks out like a sore thumb between the other 2.
Loveless came later for me and helped me discover more music just the same as Nevermind did years before... So I do not have as many connections to it.. but find it a more complex and interesting listen none the less that opens itself up to me with every listen, always something to discover in it.
Both albums have a place with me, and helped me in my discovery of music.. but I have to go with "Loveless" here. Just so much going on with that album that keeps me coming back, while I have wore out my interest in Nevermind and it is just the same odl to me with each listen.
