Nirvana - In Utero

First time on vinyl!

180-gram double LP set cut at 45 RPM

Direct metal mastering from the analog tapes to copper plates

Album download included, 320kbps vinyl ripped AAC MP4s

The 20th Anniversary of Nirvana's third and ultimately final studio album, In Utero, continues, with its 2013 Mix, mastered at Abbey Road Studios as a 45 RPM 180-gram vinyl double album — cut to copper plates using the direct to metal mastering process, and housed in stunning alternate artwork exclusive to this release.

The 2013 Mix finds original producer Steve Albini revisiting In Utero with the blessing and oversight of Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic. With an approach described as more of an alternate snapshot of the same entity than a typical 'remix' or 'new mix', the 2013 Mix coaxes forth never before heard nuances — and including unearthed alternate performances on some tracks — finds incredible new sonic dimensions of the unwitting swansong of the single most influential group of the 1990s.

Upon its original 1993 release, In Utero was easily the most polarizing record of a generation. The most confrontational yet vulnerable material Kurt Cobain, Novoselic and Grohl would ever record, it was also the first record Nirvana would make with any expectations from the public. The In Utero 2013 Mix 45 RPM double vinyl edition offers yet another perspective of the final and perhaps finest hour of Nirvana: of the most incredible yet conflicted rock 'n' roll band of the era at the peak of its powers surmounting struggles from within and without to make the record they needed to make.

I shouldn't have written this off in 2013 posted on 04/20/2022 5 Stars Reviewer: Riggs Usually with remixes I scoff. Not to say they can't be some sort of improvement, but typically not. I had no idea that they went to Albini and he helmed this release until a year ago. It's fantastic. DMM, 45 rpm, etc. I love the Albini mixes of HSB and AA. The other differences I either like or don't mind. I did miss the cello all over Dumb, but I got use it and this album sounds less compressed. The album has the Albini drum sound missing from original. Very full. I paid 80 dollars for this before it was repressed, then when it came back for 35 to 40 bucks I bought a back up copy.
