KURT COBAIN & NIRVANA BY STEPHEN SWEET

Kurt Cobain died 20 years ago, on April 5, 1994. It’s crazy how time flies - it doesn’t feel like long ago that I first listened to Nirvana as a teenager, buying albums, singles, videotapes (e.g. Sonic Youth’s 1991: The Year Punk Broke) and bootlegs with my pocket money that was intended for lunch snacks at school. May his soul rest in peace.

Here’s a short excerpt of the 1994 obituary from the New York Times archive:

"Kurt Cobain, the ragged-voiced product of a Pacific Northwest timber town who helped to create the grunge rock sound that has dominated popular music for the last four years, was found dead today at his home here. The police said they believed that Mr. Cobain, the lead singer, guitarist and songwriter for the influential band Nirvana, killed himself with a single shotgun blast to the head." (read more)

I really haven't had that exciting of a life. There are a lot of things I wish I would have done, instead of just sitting around and complaining about having a boring life. So I pretty much like to make it up. I'd rather tell a story about somebody else.

I started being really proud of the fact that I was gay even though I wasn't.

Drugs are a waste of time. They destroy your memory and your self-respect and everything that goes along with with your self esteem.

"My perspective is that [Kurt] was ill a lot of the time, that his stomach hurt and he was in a lot of pain; no one wants to talk when you're not feeling well."—Jennifer Finch, bassist, L7; ex-girlfriend of Dave Grohl

I was looking for something a lot heavier, yet melodic at the same time. Something different from heavy metal, a different attitude.
