    Album Description
    Nirvana changed the course of popular music forever and remains an inspiration to those who have followed. The band's musical legacy was illuminated further in November 2004 by the release of the 3-CD/1-DVD box set With the Lights Out, the definitive collection of rarities and outtakes. Now the 22-song, single-disc Sliver: The Best of the Box offers fans audio highlights from With the Lights Out with the bonus inclusion of three unreleased tracks: "Spank Thru," "Sappy," and a rehearsal recording of "Come as You Are."

    Album Description
    Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. Universal. 2008.

    Album Details
    Japanese Edition of the Nirvana Box Set Anthology Comes with a Special Limited Edition Poster for the First Pressing Only.

    1 out of 5 stars I made better recordings in my garage   April 13, 2008

    I was expecting a lot more when I bought this CD. I was expecting studio quality demos similar to Metallica's Garage Days. This CD is litterally a compilation of poorly mixed cassette tape recordings. Quality is very bad.

    I bought this CD thinking it was a "Best Of" or "greatest Hits" type thing. It is far from that to be sure. Sure there are alot of songs here but they are all old demo's or just poorly recorded live stuff from garage practices & small clubs. Maybe I'm just too jaded, but the sound quality was horrible. I mean I was disapointed in it not being studio recordings in the 1st place. But in this day & age you should be able to go in & clean the really poor sound quality up a bit before packaging it up & selling it to the general public. It basicly sounds like it was recorded usuing a portable cassette tape player, & a cheap one at that! I'm gonna see if I can get some fool to actually give me some money for this piece of trash on Ebay, but I doubt it.

    I am a HUGE fan of Nirvana and own every album. I have to admit, I own the "With the lights out" box set but I still bought this album, for the three bonus tracks not released on the big box set.

    If I could give this half of a star I would. I am a big fan of Nirvana, but this was a total disappointment to me. The tracks sounded awful. I felt like I was ripped off in every sense of the way. I took it to a buy-trade-sell place and not even they would offer me anything for it, which shows you the poor quality of this album. A word of advice; DO NOT BUY THIS!!!!!

    I think that this is a good cd of Nirvana there maybe some tape hiss on the CD but who cares its better than spending 100 bucks on the box set anyways i think this is a good CD think of it as kind of the best of the bootlegs nirvana really. Plus it includes the rare Spank Thru song from the fecal matter tape. Its a good cd for someone who wants to hear these songs but dosent want to buy the box set. Great CD!!!
