In making his new documentary Cobain: Montage Of Heck, director Brett Morgen got access to a ton of untouched home recordings from Kurt Cobain, and some of them made their way into the movie, including a Beatles cover and a long acoustic demo. And now, Morgen says that he and the Montage Of Heck team will turn some of those recordings into a new Kurt Cobain album that'll come out this summer. Morgen says the album "will feel like you're kind of hanging out with Kurt Cobain on a hot summer day in Olympia, Washington as he fiddles about. It's going to really surprise people. Just to be clear, it's not a Nirvana album It's just Kurt, and you're going to hear him do things you never expected to come out of him." There aren't too many figures in rock history who could get us interested in an album of unfinished acoustic doodles, but Cobain is one of them.
