The In Bloom solo is the defining moment of grunge -- the dissonance, the total disregard for traditional structure, the violence, the despair, and the finale punctuated by the crashing chords -- I first heard this as a 21-year-old in college and thought, Huh, are they playing my beloved punk rock on the radio? No, but it's not heavy metal. It was simply perfect -- the natural evolution from Sonic Youth, but more melodic than that band.

I never really thought about that until now because guitar solos never particularly struck me the way the riffs usually do but I think the way everything clashes in perfect harmony here probably makes this my fav song of all time

That this paean to the type of mindless fan who "knows not what it means" appeared on the album that would eventually catapult Nirvana into the white-hot center of alternative rock is an almost too-delicious irony - especially since, as Novoselic told Rolling Stone's David Fricke in 2001, "it sounded like a Bad Brains song" in its earliest incarnations. But Cobain's workshopping of the track led to its triumphant summing up of what made Nirvana so captivating - morose and surrealistic lyrics married to power chords and gleefully turned-out harmonies. Tuning: Standard Equipment used: Fender Kurt Cobain Jaguar, Boss DS-1, Electro Harmonix Small Clone and Fender Mustang IV amp Lyrics: Sell the kids for food Weather changes moods Spring is here again Reproductive glands Hey - he's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he knows not what it means Don't know what it means, when I say: He's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he knows not what it means Knows not what it means when I say ah... We can have some more - nature is a whore Bruises on the fruit - tender age in bloom Hey - he's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he knows not what it means Don't know what it means, when I say: He's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he knows not what it means Knows not what it means when I say ah... He's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he knows not what it means Knows not what it means when I say: He's the one Who likes all our pretty songs And he likes to sing along And he likes to shoot his gun But he knows not what it means Knows not what it means [2x] Knows not what it means when I say ah...
