Nirvana's rather unceremoniously named Box gathers their debut Bleach and the odds'n'sods collection Incesticide into a two-disc set. Together, these albums paint a fairly comprehensive portrait of the band's formative years, touching on their sludgy, metallic, experimental, and poppy sides as they learned to combine these aspects more cohesively. Though Bleach is arguably the more focused album, with "Blew," "Negative Creep," and "Love Buzz" blending the group's sonic fury with an emerging sense of melody, and "About a Girl" showcasing Kurt Cobain's growing songwriting powers, Incesticide is still more interesting and listenable. Spanning the childhood angst of "Sliver" and "Dive"'s churning nihilism; the poppy Vaselines covers "Molly's Lips" and "Son of a Gun"; and "Aneurysm," a song that rivals or surpasses anything that made it onto Nevermind or In Utero, Incesticide remains a great document of Nirvana's surprising versatility. While most Nirvana fans probably own both Bleach and Incesticide separately, Box offers a convenient way for those who don't to round out their collections. ~ Heather Phares, All Music Guide
