If i had to listen to them now, I'd say Dirt. It holds up really well. Back when I was 17-18 at the time, I preferred In Utero.

Dirt. Nevermind and Ten are the only better Grunge albums and not by a huge margin.

Dirt

In Utero was not Nirvana's best.

Now do Dirt vs Badmotorfinger

Dirt

Nirvana was good, but if you take away the mystique of Cobain and his death, they'd fall pretty much in line with a lot of other alternate "grunge" bands of the time

Layne Staley was arguably more gifted than Chris Cornell and AIC probably would have been mega, world super stars.

Loved Layne and AIC and do not want to make the argument over who is better as a singer.

But Soundgarden's Louder than Love and Badmotorfinger are better than any 2 AIC ever released. Much more raw and inline with the grunge movement.
