None.
The boys from Seattle recommend getting high and ending up with a hangover on the appropriately titled "Dumb." Worse yet, "Rape Me" is destined to be an accessory in violent crimes against women by suggesting that they enjoy being sexually assaulted-repeatedly ("Rape me my friend . . . hate me, do it and do it again"). Tongue in cheek? Hard to tell. It will be interesting to see how the band tries to justify this one. Other dangerous messages involve hating enemies, committing suicide ("Milk It") and the normalcy of homosexuality ("All Apologies"). Obscene and grotesque references appear throughout.
In Utero is noxious noise with no redeeming value. Kmart and Wal-Mart even refused to stock it when it was first released in 1993. The band's bassist was quoted as saying, "I'm just waiting for some right-wing Christian group to deem the record satanic. That would really move some units." [SEE ALSO: Foo Fighters]
