Kurt Cobain - 10 Years Gone
Believe it or not, but it has been 10 years since Kurt Cobain committed suicide. Ten long years. Grunge is gone, seattle is making a comeback with music that is much less angst-ridden. Courtney Love is out of control. Lots of other things have changed too. It’s kind of interesting when you think about it.
In honor of the 10th Anniversary of Cobain’s death, NME.com is prepping a CD with 13 of the most influential tracks from some of Kurt’s favorite bands. The track list is as follows.
Mudhoney - ‘Touch Me I’m Sick’
Rites Of Spring - ‘For Want Of’
Faith - ‘Subject To Change’
Iggy Pop - ‘Louie Louie / Hang On Sloopy’
The Melvins - ‘Gluey Porch Treatments’
The Butthole Surfers - ‘Sweat Loaf’
MDC - ‘John Wayne Was A Nazi’
Gang Of Four - ‘At Home He’s A Tourist’
The Slits - ‘Typical Girls’
PJ Harvey - ‘Dress’
The Vaselines - ‘Molly’s Lips’
Leadbelly - ‘Where Did You Sleep Last Night’
Bad Brains - ‘Banned In DC’
I know it has all been said about Kurt Cobain, but can you imagine what kind of music he would have contributed over the last ten years since he has been gone? Especially when you consider he was coming off the most epic Unplugged performance that MTV has ever seen.

If you become too accepting of a condition that you really don’t want to encourage, you might just end up with unintended consequences.
