      Kurt hated If You Must. I loved it the first time I heard Outcesticide. Hearing "new Nirvana" songs after Kurt was gone was incredible. Still finding things I haven't heard 30 years later when I thought I had heard it all. Incredible.

      @@krisfrederick5001 Yeah, I know he hated If You Must and called it 'evil' or something in his journal. Its one of my favourite Nirvana songs, but I can understand why Kurt didn't like it as I'm sure he was aware he was capable of much better. Still a really good song though.

    I also said it last time but Kurt definitely has a knack for writing some incredibly heavy riffs that wouldn't be out of place in an actual metal band, like the dude wrote some absolutely head banging riffs and it's awesome. Great as always, Eric, killing it every time

    The Eastwood has a really cool lofi distorted sound, it's very close to the original recordings. Nirvana had a really two-faced sound in terms of their almost thrash sounding heavier stuff and their lighter poppy riffs. Do you plan on doing a 'top 10 of the most melodic Nirvana riffs' video?
