Nirvana - Negative Creep (Guitar Cover)

As Nirvana began to compile the tunes they would record for their debut album, Kurt, realising that Sub Pop favoured grunge in the Stooges heavy punk vein, rather than the more scattershot experiments of Mexican Seafood and Hairspray Queen, reluctantly favoured the more straight-ahead, riff-heavy entries in the early Nirvana songbook. Indeed, many of the riffs they had didn’t even have lyrics yet, so the night before recording sessions for the album began, he holed up at the house of the group’s second guitarist Jason Everman – who would finance the album’s $606 budget, but not appear on the tracks – and wrote the lion’s share of Bleach’s lyrics in one night.

Negative Creep was one such rush job. The riff was a work of neanderthal magic, a distorted two-note jackhammer that growled like a hacking carburettor before tearing off into the haywire, metallic chorus. The lyrics, meanwhile, were unabashed autobiography. “I didn’t care about lyrics at the time,” Kurt told biographer Michael Azerrad, and reasoned that as long as he screamed something gnarly that wasn’t sexist or too embarrassing, that was good enough. What came out was an expression of his dark soul. “I’m a negative person,” Kurt admitted, adding that his persona circa Bleach was someone who was “trying to be ‘punk rock’, or something. I had this terrible Johnny Rotten complex.”

As for the chorus’ ‘Daddy’s little girl ain’t a girl no more’, it was an unconscious cop from Mudhoney’s Sweet Young Thing Ain’t Sweet No More, the flip-side to their deathless Touch Me I’m Sick single, which was perhaps the archetypal grunge track of the early era. Certainly, Negative Creep fit the Sub Pop blueprint to a tee.

Lyrics:
This is out of our reach
This is out of our reach
This is out of our reach and it's grown
This is getting to be
This is getting to be
This is getting to be drone

I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep and I'm...
I'm...

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more

This is out of our range
This is out of our range
This is out of our range and it's crude
This is getting to be
This is getting to be
This is getting to be like drone

I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep and I'm stoned!
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep
I'm a negative creep and I'm!
AH!

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more!

Yeah!
Drone
Stoned

Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
Daddy's little girl ain't a girl no more
