We all the know the story by now, but one can't help by still being impressed at how well this album turned out considering the manner in which it was made. The songs are electronically and lyrically equal: poppy, dramatic, witty and sad. This album, for better or worse, officially crossed indie over into mainstream and helped save the major label owned Sub-Pop from being known only as 'Nirvana's label'.
