- Courtney Love, the widow of iconic Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain, named a list of her favourite songs ever created by the grunge pioneers. The Hole frontwoman, who first met Cobain at Portland’s Satyricon nightclub in January 1990, was married for two years after getting wed on Waikiki Beach in Hawaii in 1992. - Their relationship was fast and furious, built around intense creativity and heavy touring amid major commercial success through both bands. While reflection on her career and life as part of an Instagram live Q&A, Love was drawn into a conversation about some of her favoured Nirvana tracks for the first time. Perhaps unsurprisingly, Love picked out ‘Heart Shaped Box’ taken from 1993 album  In Utero , a track which she attempted to get her hands on while she heard Cobain writing the riff. “We had this huge closet,” she recalled in an interview with Rolling Stone in 1994. “And I heard him in there working on Heart-Shaped Box. He did that in five minutes. [I went]

- Six Strands of Kurt Cobain’s Hair Are Up for Auction The locks come from a haircut the Nirvana frontman received while in England in 1989 In a world where NFTs are going for big bucks, here’s something tangible (and somewhat macabre) that’s going up for auction. Six strands of Kurt Cobain’s hair are up for bid as part of a music memorabilia lot featuring items from Nirvana, Eddie Van Halen, Led Zeppelin, The Beatles, and more.

The company has provided photographic evidence of the haircut in question with an explanation that begins, “This one-of-a-kind artifact is entirely fresh-to-market and is accompanied by an impeccable lineage of provenance including photos of Kurt posing with the woman who cut this hair,

- Netflix: A probable biopic of Nirvana with Brad Pitt, but Courtney Love disagrees. If you shout your possible biographical film about Nirvana with Brad Pitt as Kurt Cobain. Former wife Courtney Love, however, disagrees. The wave of musical biographies that have been reaching the general public in recent months has not stopped. After the successful Bohemian Rhapsody in Queen, and The Dirt in Mötley Crüe, now I could also go to biopic in Nirvana. - At the moment we have nothing certain, only rumors, about the realization of the film about the very famous rock band of the 90s. The particular thing that is wasted is the voice in relation to the name of the actor who will play Kurt Cobain, the leader Nirvana leader who died on April 5, 1994. And among the many names, the one that appeared most was Brad Pitt. A vague conformity (particularly with Pitt when he was young) is undeniable. But there are those who have launched against this possibility. Haz was personally personalized with

- We’re taking a trip back to this day in 1991 to revisit a special moment. The moment Kurt Cobain, Krist Novoselic and Dave Grohl joined forces as Nirvana to perform their iconic song ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’ live for the very first time. - Some songs are so ubiquitous to their scene – or to the artist that made them – that they can now fall a bit flat. Ask any diehard Nirvana fan what their favourite song is from the grunge icons and we’d bet that 95% of them would avoid picking ‘Smells Like Teen Spirit’. To opt for the Nevermind track would be fandom suicide. The song has become an anthem for the disenfranchised, but the anti-establishment track was so quickly picked up by the establishment as their mood-board touchpoint for selling junk to Generation X. Over time, the song lost a little of its intended edge. “Everyone has focused on that song so much,” Cobain later said of the track. “I think there are so many other songs that I’ve written that are as good, if not better, tha

- Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain was a man of strong principles. He was a man who knew what he believed in, knew what he considered to be the morally right thing and he was never afraid to make himself known. With this in mind, Cobain, on   stage with his Nirvana bandmates  during a show in Oakland on New Year’s Eve in 1993, confronted a male fan in the crowd who was allegedly groping a female in the front row during a gig. - Never shy to make his opinions on the difficult topics known, Cobain passionately approached themes of women equality and, after being drawn into a conversation about rape because of the band’s most famous song, went as far to offer progressive thoughts on a seriously distressing conversation. In an interview with  NME  back in 1991, Cobain explained his thoughts on how he believed society should look to eliminate sexual assault and rape. One of the most important factors in eradicating sexual assault, he believed, was educating men about rape. - The musician s

- According to The Pulse Of Radio, FOO FIGHTERS leader Dave Grohl admitted in a new interview with GQ that he still finds it difficult to listen to the music of NIRVANA, the band that gave him his first commercial success but ended with the singer's suicide / guitarist Kurt Cobain in April 1994. Grohl explained: "When Kurt died, every time he turned on the radio, it broke my heart. I don't put on NIRVANA records, no. Although they are always somewhere. I get in the car, they are on I go to a store, they are on. " - Grohl added that his memories of making the NIRVANA albums he played on are as vivid as ever, and said: "I remember everything about those records; I remember the shorts he was wearing when we recorded them or it snowed that day." Although he has achieved great success on his own terms with FOO FIGHTERS, Grohl commented that he could not have achieved it without the experiences he lived at NIRVANA. He said: "I was 21 years old ... I thou
