| Dreamers This Album Does Not Exist | 3.0 |
Based on the first two singles (Wolves and Drugs), these guys had a lot of potential. But
several of the tracks do not really live up to these songs. The album is decent guitar-
driven indie rock, but besides those greats two tracks, "Lucky Dog" and "Shooting Shadows"
(though "Painkiller", "Sweet Disaster", "Cry out for Me" and "Little New Moon" were good as
well), the remaining few tracks could have been better. |

| There are some decent tracks here like "Forever Always", "Insane" and "Better Man", but the bad tracks outweigh what good these songs have. "Folk-Hop Sound", "Reputation", "We Own the Night" and "Uh-Huh, Yeah!" are all horrendous. The deluxe edition comes with a remix of "Take It All Back" and a bonus track. |

| There are some good tracks, like "And I Love Her" and "Reverb Experiment", but this as a whole is an album Cobain wouldn't have want to be released. Several of the tracks have Cobain's voice altered greatly, and it doesn't do justice to him. Strangely, the better tracks are the ones without Cobain singing. |
