This is one case where the legend really precedes the record itself. Cut for about 600 dollars in Jack Endino's studio over just a matter of days, this captures Nirvana at a formative stage, still indebted to the murk that became known as grunge, yet not quite finding their voice as songwriters. Which isn't to say that they were devoid of original material, since even at this stage Kurt Cobain illustrated signs of his considerable songcraft, particularly on the minor-key ballad "About a Girl" and the dense churn of "Blew." A few songs come close to that level, but that's more a triumph of sound than structure, as "Negative Creep" and "School" get by on attitude and churn, while the cover of "Love Buzz" winds up being one of the highlights because this gives a true menace to their sound, thanks to its menacing melody.

Tracks: Blew/ About a girl/ School/ Love buzz/ Paper cuts/ Negative creep/ Scoff/ Swap meet/ Mr. Moustache/ Sifting.
There are a few light spindle marks on labels. Record has very light scuff marks that produce only a few light crackles noticeable between tracks and is in Near Mint condition. Gloss cover has a few tiny surface tears around edges and light scuffing on corners and is in Excellent condition.
