From Progarchives.com, the ultimate progressive rock music website

Nirvana's 1971 release, "Local Anaesthetic," is a departure from their typical sound, showcasing a noticeable progression in their music. The album features just two tracks, "Modus Operandi (Method of Work)" and "Home," each over fifteen minutes. These compositions take listeners on a journey into uncharted territory for the band, delving deeper into progressive and experimental rock styles. "Modus Operandi" blends various influences in an experimental style, while "Home" expands on the band's signature sound, transforming it into a sprawling, multi-section piece. Local Anaesthetic is an overlooked entry in the band's catalog, leaving listeners to wonder what could have come if Nirvana had pursued this progressive direction further.
