E' giunto il momento di rendere omaggio ai Nirvana, uno dei miei primissimi grandi amori musicali, e per farlo recensirò quest raccolta di rarità del 1992, a cui sono sempre stato molto affezionato. Il suond è un mix di punk, grunge e le sonorità claustrofobiche del primo album "Bleach".
"Incesticide" contiene gran parte dei miei pezzi preferiti di Cobain e soci: Dive è un brano quasi metal dall'andamento molto martellante sostenuto da un ottima performance vocale e un gran riff di chitarra di Kurt Cobain (chi dice che non è stato un grande musicista non capisce proprio un cazzo) Sliver, la celeberrima cantilena grunge che sfocia in una sfuriata punk (uno dei classici dei Nirvana e del grunge in generale) Davvero stupende e divertentissime sono le cover dei Vaselines Molly's Lips e soprattutto Son Of A Gun, che mi sono ascoltato fino alla noia senza mai stancarmi. Le vere perle del disco sono però Big Long Now e Aneurysm: la prima inizia lenta e ipnotica con un Kurt Cobain che quasi sussurra, per poi esplodere in un ritornello cupo e disperato: un autentica perla nera che non somiglia a nessuna canzone della band (sono praticamente certo che gli Alice In Chains si siano ispirati a questa canzone per comporre Frogs, confrontate i ritornelli e noterete la somiglianza). Aneurysm invece è un grandissimo cavallo di battaglia live: stupenda quell'intro con il riff di Cobain che somiglia quasi a una sirena e il grande giro di basso di Krist Novoselic (altro grande musicista ingiustamente sottovalutato).
Basterebbe tutto questo per fare di "Incesticide" un gran disco, ma anche un resto è tutt'altro che da buttare: si passa dall'orecchiabilità di Stain, Been A Son e Downer al mood stralunato di Turnaround e Mexican Seafood, passando per il punk di New Wave Polly (molto meglio la versione lenta di Nevermind), la pesantezza di Beeswax e Hairspray Queen, senza dimenticare Aero Zeppelin, che potrebbe tranquillamente fare da colonna sonora a un qualsiasi thriller o film horror.
"Incesticide" è un gran disco, che rappresenta i Nirvana i tutte le sue sfaccettature.

05 Turnaround (02:19)
Take a step outside yourself
And you turn around
Take a look at who you are
It's pretty scary
So silly
It's revolting
You're not much
If you're anything
Take a step outside the city
And you turn around
Take a look at where you are
It's revolting!
You're really nowhere
So wastefull
So foolish
Poppycock!
(spoken):
Who said don't look back?
Don't believe 'em
Go for that crazy sounding restaurant
'Cause they're gonna try and get behind you
Don't you let 'em do it
You know what I'm talking about?
You hear me talking?
You hear me talking?!
It's pretty scary, totally, it's so revolting
It's pretty scary, totally, it's so revolting
It's pretty scary, totally, it's so revolting
It's pretty scary, totally, it's so revolting
Naaaaaaaaah!
Take a step outside the country
And you turn around
Take a look at where you are
It's amazing
Take a good look
You're no big deal
You're so petty
It's a laugh
Take a step outside the planet
Turn around and around
Take a look at where you are
It's pretty scary

09 Beeswax (02:50)
I was a seeking out for a funnel
Not only magnets but I could pry bar it shut
Glueing my manhood in a manhole
like peppy lepew the scent
hey hey had a lightweight clutch
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate
She laughs about it
Shrinking inflections if the wind blows just right
Jacking themselves off polyester!
I wanna jump, this isn't right!
Hey, when am I getting it back?
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate
I don't know why,
I got a joke too silly to say
Don't touch the balls
I got a dick, Dick -- hear my fucking hate!
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate
If you're wondering, it's gaining monthly
Fiberglass insulated,
Disguised as cotton candy,
Spawning downstream, El Rancho Ovulate
Feeling can't help me romp
Bill just fuck me, take me anal
Billy's slit reminds me of someone
I'm sick of paying for the love boat
Tony and Tenille say wanna jump rope
And I say look!
I got my titilate spayed
I got my liberty
I got my titilate spayed
I got my titilate spayed
... Nothing hard
I gotta be around pussy
Don't let me fall
I got a heh-heh ...
Well you can't live
We got my diddly spayed
I got titilate spayed
I got titilate spayed
I got titilate spayed
I got titilate spayed
I got titilate spayed
I got titilate
10 Downer (01:43)
Portray sincerity, act out of loyalty
Defend every country, wish away pain
Hand out lobotomies to save little families
Surrealistic fantasy - bland, boring, plain
Hold me down in restitution
Living out your date with fusion
Is the whole fleece shun in bastard?
Don't feel guilty, master writing
Somebody said that they're not much like I am
I know I can
Make enough of the words as you go along
I sing then some
Sickening pessimist, hypocrite master
Conservative Communist, apocalyptic bastard
Thank you, dear God, for putting me on this Earth
I feel very privileged in debt for my thirst
Hold me down in restitution
Living out your date with fusion
Is the whole fleece shun in bastard?
Don't feel guilty, master writing
Somebody said that they're not much like I am
I know I can
Make enough of the words as you go along
I sing then some
11 Mexican Seafood (01:55)
Oh, itchy flakes, it isn't through me
Till the jaw's in flames, it's entertaining
True, the fungus mold is my attraction
Oh, it's only a disinfection
Only hurts when I, it hurts when I pee
Only hurts when I, it hurts when I sleep
I vomit cum and diarrhea on the tiled floor like oatmeal pizza
Fill my toilet bowl of a cloudy puss
I feel my blood becoming chowder rust
Only hurts a night, it hurts when I pee
Only hurts a night, until I sleep
Roll into my bed which does consist of lice bugs and fleas and
and yellow mucus
Stained dirt, Vaseline, toe jam & boogers
Stomach acid worms that dance in sugared slusdge
Mmmmm ...

Whats the season in a Right if you can't have anything
Whats the reason in a Rhyme if a plan means everything
Whats the meaning in a crime its a fan if anything
Wheres the leaning in a line it's a Brand its a Brand
How a culture comes again it was all here yesterday
And you swear it's not a trend doesn't matter anyways
Youre only hear to talk to friend nothing new is every day
You could shit upon the stage they'll be fans
They'll be fans
They'll be fans
All the kids will eat it up, if it's packaged properly
Steal a sound and imitate, keep a format equally
Not an ode, just the facts, where our world is nowadays
An idea is what we lack, it doesn't matter anyways.
