funketeer Posted April 4 Author Report Share Posted April 4 Originally posted by meng overrated Cobain or Pumpkins???I for one had to watch hours and hours of Cobain material to edit a piece and the whole Nirvana experience is just unreal...a phenomenon...I mean, it's not just about the music...each and every song is amazing to me...the sound of Cobain untrained "sloppy" chords...the hooks...the lyrics...everything he ever did has a special meaning to me.As for Pumpkins, I liked them a lot...I still think they broke up on time...Billy Corgan is now working on his first solo album...we'll see how that sounds.

funketeer Posted April 5 Author Report Share Posted April 5 April 5 marks the 10th anniversary of the suicide of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain … or was he murdered?A new book by investigative journalists Max Wallace and Ian Halperin claims his death was definitely murder.This week their book 'In Love and Death: The Murder of Kurt Cobain' will be released. According to a statement from their publisher Atria Books the police report was simply wrong. "Relying on a leaked autopsy report and Seattle Police Department records obtained under the Freedom of Information Act, they reveal that the official suicide scenario was scientifically impossible" the statement reads. "The records show that Cobain had ingested a triple lethal dose of heroin, before his life was ended with a shotgun bullet, suggesting a murder staged to look like a suicide. The authors interview a coroner who believes the forensic evidence suggests somebody gave Cobain an overly pure dose of heroin, waited for him to lose consciousness and then positioned the shotgun so that it appeared Cobain had pulled the trigger. No legible fingerprints were found on the shotgun, despite the fact that at least three people had handled it that week".As to who killed Kurt Cobain, the publishers say "The authors obtained hours of explosive tapes recorded by Courtney Love's former P.I., Tom Grant, who taped all his conversation with Courtney, her attorney and others in the days immediately before and after Kurt's death. Grant later went public, implicating Courtney in her husband's death".Cobain's grandfather Leland speaks up in the book, backing the murder theory. Kurt's attorney (and Godmother of Frances Bean) claims the suicide note is a forgery.'In Love and Death: The Murder of Kurt Cobain' is in bookstores today (April 3).

bullseye Posted April 5 Report Share Posted April 5 that whole music scene from 91-96, the seattle sound w/nirvana, alice in chains, soundgarden, then the california bands, like stone temple pilots and rage against the machine, still my favorite music period.
