Cultural Facts:

1. Recorded with engineer Steve Albini in rural Minnesota after the band grew uncomfortable with how polished Nevermind had become.

2. The original back-cover fetus art and some song titles drew pressure from big-box chains, leading to censored alternate packaging.

3. Seen by the band as a corrective to sudden fame, it was released less than a year before Kurt Cobain’s death, adding to its bleak mythology.
