#871 Hole – Celebrity Skin

Hole is a band that I really enjoyed in the early 90s. Unfortunately, their third album Celebrity Skin was released during my time away from music so i completely missed it. The album was a critical and commercial success for the band. Courtney Love proved that she could make great music without Kurt Cobain. My […]

#786 Foo Fighters – Foo Fighters

Foo Fighters released their eponymous debut album one year after Kurt Cobain committed suicide. Dave Grohl did not waste his time sitting around mourning his former bandmates death. He used the time to create his first album as the Foo Fighters. It could be considered a solo project since he wrote all the songs and […]

#782 Nirvana – MTV Unplugged in New York

I am a little surprised to Nirvana‘s MTV Unplugged in New York made the list. I am not saying it isn’t great. I actually do not remember it now. I know I have a dislike for live albums in general, but I will be open to hearing it again. I hated the applauses, but that […]

#775 Hole – Live Through This

Finally an album that I was a huge fan of in 1994. Hole‘s Live Through This was one of my favourite albums of the 90s. It was released one week after lead singer Courtney Love‘s husband Kurt Cobain killed himself. The critics loved the album and it made the band into a huge success. It […]

#742 Nirvana – In Utero

Nirvana‘s final album In Utero was released in 1993. I was a fan of theirs. I even saw them in concert before the end of the year. I think this album was harder and rawer than their previous album Nevermind. I wonder how they would sound today if Kurt Cobain had not killed himself in […]

#686 Nirvana – Nevermind

I think everybody remembers when they discovered Nirvana and heard their second studio album Nevermind, which slowly exploded into our lives in 1991. It was released in 1991, but it peaked at number one on January 11, 1992. It was like a bride’s list of “Something Old, Something New, Something Borrowed, Something Blue.” It had that feeling […]

#617 Mudhoney – Superfuzz Bigmuff

Mudhoney is a band I know of only by name. Superfuzz Bigmuff was their first EP. I am not sure how this made its way into the list because it is not a full album, but the editor of this crappy book seems to be making the rules up as he goes. Grunge as with […]

1001 Albums #49

The Sonics‘ !!!Here Are The Sonics!!! is the original grunge and punk band album of the 60s. I have never heard of them, but many punk bands and grunge bands named them as an influence. Kurt Cobain was influenced by them. Both bands are from the Washington state. The difference is one band hit it big […]

1001 Albums #3

Tragic Songs of Life by The Louvin Brothers should have been titled Tragic Songs to Comment Suicide To. I will be honest with you. I hate country music. It sounds like a cat being raped by an elephant. I imagine a bunch of kitties with little collars that have #metoo stamped on it when I […]
