About the album

Four of the six songs included in the EP are cover versions , the remaining two (by Nirvana ) previously appeared as bi-sides for the singles of the album Nevermind .

Aneurysm and Even in His Youth were formerly members of the single Smells Like Teen Spirit . This version of Aneurysm also appeared on disc 2 of the box with With the Lights Out and is significantly different from the one that was released on Incesticide .

“Turnaround” (a cover for Devo ), “Son of a Gun” and “Molly's Lips” (covers for The Vaselines ) were also included on the Incesticide album.

"D-7" is a cover version of the song by The Wipers , appeared on the British version of the single " Lithium ", and later on on disc 2 of the set with The Lights Out in 2004.
