Quick review on the cds

Smells like teen spirit - Single

As stated, this is a 3 track single, aside from teen spirit 'Aneurysm' is on their 4th cd 'incesticide' which is more a compilation of rarities than a new album, but 'Even in his youth' was a true rarity at the time, it was only featured in 2 cds their japan release of nevermind called 'hormoaning' and in this single. (it was later released in their 'lights out' compilation)

There is nothing really special in this single aside from the 2 extra songs, 'Aneurysm' is like an instrumental meddley and 'Even in his youth' is basically Nirvana Punk

Life is peachy

Not their best but still good. Fav songs for me are 'Good god' 'Wicked' (Feat. Chino from the deftones: ice cube cover) 'Ass itch' (my fav) and 'Low rider' (War cover)

This cd was my introduction to Nu metal and right away i luved the drums and the bass, the guitars hooks are simple and memorable and the lyrics are full of teenage angst, overall its a decent album.
