Slightly overrated musician whose (not wholly voluntary) success allowed music companies to ladle the anti-establishment revivalist hard rock of the Pacific Northwest out of the pot it had been bubbling in for years, and attached a corporate label to it (grunge) that would soon be handed over to bloodsucking leeches like Bush, Creed, Puddle of Mudd, et al. This realization (and the widespread romanticising of his angst) led him to suicide in mid-1994.
He was by no means untalented and had excellent melodic sense. A symbol of his age, for good and ill.

Kurt Cobain was good, but he wasn't strawberry fudge icecream sundae with a cherry tomato on top good! Maybe fudgecicle with multicolored sprinkles good...maybe.

Get the Cocaine Shakes mug.Lead singer and guitarist for band Nirvana. Married to Courtney Love and had 1 child, daughter Frances Bean. Was not the most talented musician, by far, but definitly had the most impact on music of the 90's. Stupid metalheads and rap wannabe's hate him, because he was successful without all the glitz and gimmicks and skanky women(well, one skanky woman). Had a lot of mental problems, as obvious to anyone who has read his journals or paid attention to his lyrics. But, his profound lyrics combined with then unheard of musical stylings started one the biggest musical movements of the past 30 years.
No one knows what Kurt Cobain would have done with the rest of his life, but it's a shame we couldn't find out by him taking it's natural course.
