Dave Grohl reflects on In Utero 20 years later

Nirvana's last studio album, In Utero, was released this week in 1993. While you mull over various anniversary editions of the disc, you can also read a new interview with Dave Grohl in Rolling Stone today. There, the Nirvana drummer-turned-founder of current alt-rock faves Foo Fighters reflects on the making of In Utero and what came to be Kurt Cobain's last days, like:

"Usually, when Nirvana made music, there wasn't a lot of conversation. We wanted everything to be surreal. We didn't want to have some contrived composition. A song like "Heart-Shaped Box" – we would start jamming. Kurt would play the riff, and Krist would tune into what he was doing, and I would play along with the two of them. We would get into this dynamic, getting loud, then quiet, then loud. A lot of that quiet-loud thing came from those experimental jams."
