Aneurysm - Nirvana

yeh it's a great song
the hole of incesticide is absoloutly phenominal although In Utero does it for me.
"come on over and do the twist, over do it and have a fit"
knowing what reference to kurt that has is something i wanna know.
i know that "loves you so much it makes me sick", was about one of kurts girlfriends.
Francis farmer will have her revenge on seattle is probably my favourite. but let's be honest...what Nirvana song doesn't kick ass.

One of my favourite Nirvana tracks, I have now been inspired to go and listen to it

frenzied intro...

one of the few songs dave grohl (or whoever was part of the songwriting process) uses double kicks...

nice.

 

[rick James]

A lot better live than it is recorded.

No he didnt (it was Dave by the way).

If you're talking about the lick he does coming out of the build up in the intro (which he does again later in the tune as well) its just a nicely executed variation of 32nd stroke roll. Its all hands dude.

Dave Grohl has never used double bass on a recording with anyone.

And i agree with rick James that this song sounds heaps live. The recorded versions i have are just so sloppy and raw, the tempos waver so much, which lots of people try to tell me was much of the appeal of Nirvana, and which i've also read was mostly Kurt's instruction, not Dave's terrible meter. Dave Grohl was/is so much better than that.

ahhh...like mounted or floor toms??? i see...

i used to drum, but i don't really have an 'ear' for it...

it's the part RIGHT before the guitar part before "she keeps pumping straight to my heart X 15"...

thanks.

The From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah is the best version.

The recorded version is average and has the cheesy backing vocals in the chorus. Sounds much better with just Kurt signing.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Medium talent!

Live it's more forceful. Studio version is no slouch either.

Great track

isn't there an alternative version with funkier bass on the Nevermind reissue...

 

[Power Raid]

A great song.

Geez the early 90s were "angry" years evidenced by the music

One of their best songs in my opinion. Definitely in the top handful. Absolutely awesome live.
