With the Lights Out

~ Release by Nirvana (see all versions of this release, 7 available)

Annotation

Though the disk liner lists track 4 as "Help Me I'm Hungry", the actual title is "Vendetagainst". The error was due to the record label using the common name used by bootleg companies (many of whose bootlegs were used for this box set), rather than the actual name the band gave the track.
