(Editorial Note: early on in the episode, I made a remark along the lines of “we probably forgot an album, so please let us know.” Lo and behold, 40 minutes after finishing the episode, I realized we completely forgot that Nirvana’s “In Utero” was released in September (9/21/1993) - on the day we recorded this damn episode, no less! My apologies for neglecting to mark that one for inclusion in this exercise. We’ll try and do better next time! - Chris)
September is an absolutely jam packed month when it comes to album release anniversaries, so this week, Chris and Ethan rank 10 of the best grunge/grunge-adjacent albums released during September.
