Proving that there are still valuable gems to be unearthed on eBay, one lucky Nirvana fan is now the owner of an original recording of a session that included two previously-unheard tracks from the band.

The label on the reel actually lists seven songs recorded on February 15, 1993 at Pachyderm Studios, including two demo versions of "Dumb" and three of "Marigold," but the most compelling tracks are two instrumentals that would serve as proto-releases leading up to "In Utero," an album that the band would go on to record with Steve Albini later that month in the same studio.

"Lullaby" is the more dissonant of the two songs with unrehearsed drums, bass, and a cosmic keyboard effect that spill together into three and a half minutes of messy noodling.
