Outcesticide

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Outcesticide is a series of bootleg CDs featuring rare and unreleased material by the American rock band Nirvana. It was released unofficially by Blue Moon Records. To date, five discs have been released. They were all released in the mid-to-late 1990s. The name Outcesticide is taken from Incesticide, an official album Nirvana released in 1992, featuring various unreleased songs in an attempt to stop bootleggers.

The Outcesticide discs remain among the most celebrated Nirvana bootlegs of all time. However, commercial bootlegs in general became largely redundant during the first few years of the 21st century, due to the rise of trading communities. [1] Also, many of the rare recordings on the Outcesticide discs were officially released on the 2004 Nirvana box set, With the Lights Out.
