    With The Lights Out

    All Music Guide

    Within a matter of months after Kurt Cobain's suicide in April of 1994, fans started asking for the official release of all the demos, stray songs, alternate takes, and rarities in Nirvana's vaults. Due to various legal disputes between the surviving bandmembers and the Cobain estate, this long-awaited set of unreleased material did not appear until late 2004, when the three-disc, one-DVD box With the Lights Out finally appeared. Not counting the 20-song DVD, the box contains 61 tracks, with nearly two-thirds of this material seeing its first official release on this set (the remaining songs are B-sides, one-off singles, and compilation contributions that didn't make it to the compilation Incesticide, or appeared after its 1992 release). Much of this unreleased material has circulated frequently on bootlegs over the past ten years -- most notably on the 1995 box set Into the Black and the multi-volume Outcesticide series -- but the fidelity here is much, much better, and there are several items here that have never been bootlegged, including early alternate versions of "Smells Like Teen Spirit" and "Heart Shaped Box." Just as importantly, no major item that appeared on the bootlegs does not appear here (with the arguable exception of the Kiss cover "Do You Love Me"), which makes this the definitive collection of Nirvana studio rarities and outtakes. As the sessionography in the liner notes indicates, this hardly contains all of the unreleased material, but it certainly contains all of the noteworthy unreleased material.
    This boxed set is a most have for all Nirvana fans. Check out the track list/reviews:

    I am a huge Pearl Jam fan. Does anyone else feel that you have to be either a PJ fan or a Nirvana fan? Don't get me wrong Nirvana was great but I have always liked Vedder better!

    I'm a huge Pearl Jam fan and Nirvana fan. I'm a early 90's alt rock junkie. The Nirvana boxed set is the bomb. Two thumbs way up.

    Has anyone heard it? I read a review that said it wasn't anything special and wasn't worth the cost - basically just all the stuff that Nirvana never considered worthy of release like pretracks, etc. Nothing you can't find on Incesticide or Outcesticide. I agree they rock but I'd rather download .
    Today I can do what others will not so that tomorrow I will do what others cannot.

    The difference between winners and losers is that winners do things that losers don't want to do.

    I have been listening to it non stop since last week and it is awesome. If you are in to Nirvana and have the Outcesticide volumes and all their bootlegs you have heard almost everything on this boxed set. But there is no comparison between the quality, the bootlegs and the Outcesticide albums suck compared to this.

    If you are a hardcore Nirvana fan you need this set. Buy it, download it, burn a copy off a friend, just get it and listen to it.

    Cool - thanks for the info! I'll probably put it on my list then.
