As you might have heard, Courtney Love will put out a memoir via HarperCollins sometime in 2012. Man, I’m getting vicariously anxious just thinking about potential revisions; that editor has his work cut out for him. What should the title be? Holes is already taken. Related to that, I hope Shia LeBouf never dates Frances Bean Cobain because then jokes about Holes will get stale. I do not want that to happen.

C’mon, she made one great rock record, which is one more than any of you wiseasses.
I’m not one of those “Courtney killed Kurt” people, but do I think she had some *ahem* famous help during the writing of Live Through This. I mean, imagine Violet with Kurt vocals. That’s an obvious NIRVANA song. Never mind that prior to the NIRVANA box set Hole recorded and took credit for Old Age…
It’s hard to ignore the arc of Hole’s career as Kurt came into and out of Courtney’s life (Before Kurt – unlistenable; During Kurt – one of the best albums of the decade; After Kurt – unlistenable). And, playing the guitar parts on LTT and seeing how similar they are in some parts to Nirvana’s chord progressions … it’s hard to ignore.
However, in Courtney’s defense, I’d say the following:
- She didn’t screw it up
- She undeniably wrote the lyrics, which are perhaps the album’s strongest feature
- Her vocal performance on that album is phenomenal.
- There’s a story behind every great album. Inspiration (at one extreme) to ghost writing (at the other) happens all the time, and to the greatest bands. It’s not to hard to imagine a period of intense creative collaboration during whatever moments of lucidity Kurt & Courtney managed to pull off.
And, if we were to review the bands that ended up sounding like Nirvana … well, the Internet doesn’t have enough space.
