| - Milk It - is the eighth song on Nirvana's third and last studio album In Utero. It's featured as a B-side of the "Heart-Shaped Box" single. Milk it has very quiet verses and a very loud chorus. The lyrics touch on medical themes, just like the majority of tracks on In Utero. The lyrics most probably talk about depression, drug addiction and suicide. According to Cobain 'Milk It' is "an example of the more experimental and aggressive direction the band’s music had been moving in the months prior to the sessions at Pachyderm Studio". A demo of the song can be found on "With The Lights Out" box set and a live version (played in Seattle Center Arena, January 7th 1994) on "From the Muddy Banks of the Wishkah".
