Nevermind, the Nirvana album that revolutionized music forever and introduced grunge into the mainstream, but which some criticize as being too "mainstream" and not as close to what Cobain wanted their band to sound like.
Or In Utero, the album that did not quite have as much mainstream success, but which many Nirvana fans point to as being truer to the grittier, darker sound that the band wanted to go for.
Which is better to you?

In Utero. Easily In Utero.
Not to say Nevermind wasn't a great album, it was, but they had much more freedom to do what they wanted with In Utero and I feel it made for a better album.
Although, I'd probably pick Unplugged over any of their studio albums :-P

Nevermind. I have a feeling a large amount of people who say In Utero are mainly saying so because it wasnt as popular as Nevermind.

I think I like more songs off Nevermind ("Something In The Way" is AMAZING) but the songs I like off In Utero, I have a stronger like for. So it's kind of hard for me to say, in that sense.
Hmm.

Nevermind, but both are incredible albums. In Utero actually might be better from a technical/creative standpoint, but I'm not a professional musician or anything and I have always just loved Nevermind.

You're right, I totally prefer Nevermind, it's just the anti-conformist in me that's saying I prefer In Utero. My bad That's another swing and a miss with your blanket statements today

From The Muddy Banks of Whiskah remains my favorite but I guess that technically doesn't count. In Utero over Nevermind, which I've always found to be very over-rated. Maybe because I had to be there at the time or something. Breed is a tune though.

Both were fantastic albums but Nevermind was better in my opinion.

I'm gonna go with In Utero, that album has more of my favourite Nirvana songs on it.

Both incredible albums, but I have to go with Nevermind. Not because it was the most successful or most well known, but because most of my favorite songs are on that album, and everything just "clicked" right for me.

Nevermind easily. In Utero is a mess of an album honestly, the popularity it gets baffles me.

Bleach
Why isn't it a option on the poll?

In Utero definitely takes it for me. They're both fantastic albums, but In Utero is a lot more interesting and satisfying to me.
I must also wonder why Bleach isn't on this poll, but oh well.

In Utero is probably in my top 5 albums ever.
Nevermind was amazing, but I preffered In Utero.

like Nevermind a little more than In Utero, but if I had to have only one Nirvana album, it would be Unplugged in New York.

I like both ALOT (Nirvana is my favorite band), but I'd have to pick In Utero. Production aside, it just has more of my favorite Nirvana songs, like Heart-Shaped Box, Scentless Apprentice, Radio Friendly Unit Shifter, Milk It, Pennyroyal Tea. Hell I love the whole album.
With Nevermind, there are some songs that I'm not all that fond of like Stay Away (in the running for my least favorite Nirvana song), Breed, and Something In The Way (too dreary, and I prefer the Unplugged version).

In Utero, but Bleach is my favorite Nirvana album. I like their gritty-sounding "Milk It"/"Paper Cuts"/"Aneurysm" songs better than the poppy-sounding "In Bloom"/"Teen Spirit"/"Drain You" songs
