Case Against
Well it's Nirvana's worst studio album. Gone is the rough, grunge inspired sound of Bleach and in comes a more polished sound which doesn't suit them. Watching live footage of them, even in the Nevermind period, they played loud and sloppily with lots of feedback and distortion and they rocked, all of this is absent in the more user-friendly sheen of this album.
Quite a bit of filler as well, there's nothing wrong with songs like Stay Away and Lounge Act but they're hardly interesting. You could say the same of Bleach but but then its all with that sludgy sound which i prefer far more.
