Not hard to distinguish singles from album tracks, but good songs overall and a lighter sound than usual.

Good album and great lyrics, but some of the songs sound somewhat alike.

Comments : Although the lyrics are great, and the acoustic format is refreshing, the same patterns just show up too much.

Another great release from the band. Excellent sounds and instrumentation establish a kind of melancholy feel on many tracks.

Great overall album, pretty much every song could be a hit single. Lyrics are great and so is the instrumentation.

Guitar-driven album, heavy use of flanger, some good tracks but some not so good tracks.

Favorite Song :
Don't Drink The Water

Comments :
Not a traditional album at all, this release contains a lot of jazz and world rythyms, some of which is good, but can run together.

Favorite Song :
Nothing Else Matters

Comments :
Good heavy album, the guitar is great but it sounds a lot like any other heavy metal out there, although Metallica is the band which is BEING copied.

Favorite Song :
Blew

Comments :
The only reason this album does not receive a higher rating is because of the quality of the recording and repetitive sounds. Recorded for $600 in 1989, this album probably contains Kurt's best guitar work.

Great album which I would recommend. Some of the tracks don't quite cut it but others are awesome.

A collection of rarities, b-sides and non-album tracks. Sounds a lot like Bleach.

That crazy Yorke boy can really write some good music. Something for everybody on this album, from rock to acoustic to easy listening to some really surrealistic stuff.

Paradigm shift for the Pumpkins. None of the hard rock as in the previous albums, mostly electronic sounds and piano.
