Alright, time for the results of AM's top band of the 1990s, Nirvana! Since they only have three studio albums, I'll just do those really quickly first.

Fun fact, only five people didn't have the albums ranked in the same way as the other eighteen (Edre Peraza, Holden, Jackson, Live in Phoenix, and Miguel) and of those five Live in Phoenix was the only one who was different from the others, meaning Live in Phoenix is the only person who had a unique order of the three albums.

Re: Artist of the Month - May '21 - Nirvana - Results!
Thanks Holden.
In Rotten Tomatoes speak, In Bloom is in the 100 club, since it's the only song with 23 votes. (In further Rotten Tomatoes speak, In Bloom is Paddington 2 and Smells Like Teen Spirit is Citizen Kane. At least that would have been accurate a month ago, when Paddington 2 had a 100% positive review rating, and Citizen Kane plummeted to a 99% rating because of one bad review ever, and people started joking that Paddington 2 was now -- or always had been -- the greatest movie ever made. This speaks a little to the perils of prizing consensus over any other factor. Anyway, Paddington 2 itself recently went down to 99%.)
