'In Utero' is the third and final studio album by the legendary American rock band Nirvana, released on 21st September, 1993, by DGC Records. After breaking into the mainstream with their previous album, 'Nevermind', Nirvana hired Steve Albini to record 'In Utero', seeking a more complex, abrasive sound that was reminiscent of their work prior to 'Nevermind'. Although the singer and primary songwriter Kurt Cobain claimed that the album was "very impersonal", many of its songs contain heavy allusions to his personal life and struggles, expressing feelings of angst that were prevalent on 'Nevermind'.
'In Utero' was a major critical and commercial success. Critics praised its raw, unconventional sound and Cobain's lyrics. It reached number one on the US Billboard 200 and UK Albums Chart; 'Heart-Shaped Box' and 'All Apologies' reached number one on the Billboard Alternative Songs chart. The album is certified 6× Platinum in the US for 6 million sales and has sold 15 million copies worldwide. It was the final Nirvana album released before Cobain's suicide six months later.
20th Anniversary edition, remastered at the world famous Abbey Road Studios, London, UK.
