Description of Bleach:
When it first appeared, Bleach seemed like a tuneful approximation of what grunge rock in the Northwest United States was supposed to sound like--gruff, enraged, sometimes tuneful, sometimes silly. Singer Kurt Cobain had the pipes to belt out such power trash as "Mr. Moustache" and the Shocking Blue's "Love Buzz," but considering the sheer volume of frustrated tuneage coming out of Seattle in 1989, it was easy to miss Bleach's subtler textures. In retrospect, "Negative Creep" and "About a Girl" are the obvious standouts that point toward the strum and bang attack that would catapult Nevermind to the top of the charts. But this is also a band without drummer Dave Grohl; his predecessor, Chad Channing (and also the Melvins' Dale Crover), while competent, is no Grohl. Producer Jack Endino gave this album the best sound $600 could buy. --Rob O'Connor
Bleach Reviews:
My favorite nirvana cd! 
2009-12-27 - Awesome and edgy. I love this cd. The songs are exciting and mood altering. A great release after a long day!
Easily the best Nirvana
2009-11-13 - All of Nirvana's album were good, but this one is their best I think, back after I bought 'Nevermind' back when it came out, I went backwards, and bought 'Bleach', and I ended up liking it even more than Nevermind, Nevermind is not bad by no means, but this album is so underrated.
I mean songs like 'Blew' 'Floyd The Barber' 'Negative Creep' 'Paper Cuts', and even the ballad 'About a Girl', this is quite a different Nirvana than on albums to follow, alot heavier, and more raw, for some reason it gets often overlooked because of the success of Nevermind, but real fans of this band should not ignore this release, you may find it to be your favorite by them, I did.
the one that started it all 
2009-03-25 - It was the song S I F T I N G from Bleach
that spawned this book:
220: S I F T I N G ~ The Alien Battle Royale or How we met the Spirit of Kurt Cobain
Even in his youth, Kurt is better than even when he is dead.
BLEACH : Nirvana's best album *
2009-02-11 - Great HEAVY ROCK cd. Nirvana was truly a great rock band, forget "Teen Spirit" for awhile, the "grunge" label and hype-they rocked, and Kurt was a great pure songwriter. This is beer can rock at it's best. I bet John Lennon would have loved Kurt's vocals, especially the (primal) screams. Jam packed with killer guitar riffs, tight and efficient pop melodies, killer hard rock-punk gems like "Scoff", "Negative Creep", "Floyd The Barber" and the funked out cover of "Love Buzz" are awesome. Nirvana's first album remains a stone cold classic, and one of the greatest debut records ever. Right up there with Cheap Trick's first or the first Doors album. Believe it!
Bleach delivers the goods from start to finish. Recommended for anyone who likes to ROCK OUT.
Awesome debut
2008-11-27 - Great hard rock debut, this was the guts of grunge and a revolutionary time in music. Hard and heavy, yet soulful and unique, truly amazing.
