Who recorded XXX?
All Apologies
It was remixed, along with ``Heart-Shaped Box'' and later ``Pennyroyal Tea'', by Scott Litt prior to the album's release, with Cobain asserting that the vocals and bass sounded ``mushy'' in the Albini mix. Novoselic viewed ``All Apologies'' and the album's first single, ``Heart-Shaped Box'', as ``gateways'' to the more abrasive sound of the rest of the album, telling journalist Jim DeRogatis that once listeners played the record they would discover ``this aggressive wild sound, a true alternative record''.
