She says her back hurts and that she liked it but this is getting boring. She lured him by saying lets do something new. So he is caught off guard then she runs away and frees herself. In real life she runs off after he unties her at a gas station and gets help. Very sad song! Glad this is not on the nirvana Rockabye baby album they have! No Replies Log in to reply. General Comment I always thought it was about a parrot! Nooo, it's metaphoric. A sexually abused parrot, wow that's disturbing on so many levels!! Flag DizziDog on April 03, General Comment Mhhm, i read that after one of kurt's concerts or some other bands someone kidnapped a young girl, and raped her, and hurt her with a blowtorch and so on. Kurt found that so sickening and got really angry, that he wrote this ironic song. It's against rape! When some guys afterwards raped a girl, playing this song to it, Kurt got really angry that they misinterpreted it wrong, and that those were the kinds of fans he had, so he wrote in some Cd cover "to anyone that hates women, blacks, gays and so on, leave us the fuck alone" I'm not sure on how it exactly goes Flag pam on October 21, General Comment This song is about the kidnap of the girl after the concert. She was tortured with a blowtorch through a cage and possibly raped But she started to pretend to enjoy it. The capturer started to bring her places because she seemed to like the abuse and to approve of his before. Then, one day, at a gas station, the girl waited until he went inside to pay. She had gained his trust so much that he left the door unlocked. She ran away straight to the police and he was caught at the gas station. General Comment It is also obvious that Curt sings "cut yourself" and not "don't cut yourself" or "dont't hurt yourself" as in canonical official Nevermind texts. I think it's a really psychologically brilliant song, which gets into a situation of rape and abuse, into relation between rapist and victim and rapist's bored, dull interior, full of contempt to a human. Curt IS an overwhelming man. Take care Nirvana funs, as we do here in Novosibirsk, Russia! Flag gradx on February 21, Yes, it definitely sounds like just 'cut yourself' Flag manic4manics on February 09, It makes sense, isnt it? Prosecutor Tom Stratton said he would recommend an exceptionally long sentence for Friend, 49 age , who was convicted in a similar attack 27 years ago. In the latest case, Friend was charged with first-degree kidnapping and first-degree rape in the attack that occurred over several hours late June 5 and early June 6. Officials said the victim was a runaway who accepted a ride from Friend near the Tacoma Dome after she attended a rock concert in the area. When the girl tried to get out of the car, authorities said, she was handcuffed and abducted at knife-point to Friend's mobile home. The victim testified last week that Friend tortured and repeatedly raped her with several objects in his mobile home. She said he blindfolded her and ran a propane torch close to her skin. She eventually escaped. All rights reserved. Reproduced with the permission of the Seattle Post- Intelligencer.

Also named in the suit filed in the U. The financial stakes for Nirvana vs. Marc Jacobs could be significant. In its short career before the death of Cobain, Nirvana created a body of work that reached a rarefied status that matched multi-platinum sales with lasting cultural impact. Fisher says he was soon instructed not to send any more emails, and eventually learned that Nirvana had copyrighted the smiley image and T-shirt design decades earlier. Fisher says he was surprised by the revelation, though obviously aware that the happy face continued to be marketed, never thinking much about compensation. Dave Grohl upgrades his drum battle with year-old prodigy with a superhero salute. Discussions online about the drawing among fans and in news articles often take at face value the idea that it was created by Cobain, though physical evidence or published comments from the singer about the logo have yet to emerge. One theory is that it was inspired by a similar smiley on the marquee of the defunct Lusty Lady Strip Club in Seattle. Fisher insists none of that is true. It appeared again on an invitation to a record release party in Seattle. In depositions, Grohl and Novoselic said they did not know who designed the smiley, according to a November filing by Jacobs. At Geffen, Fisher received a salary, and no financial windfall if one of his designs ended up on an album that sold millions. At the same time, it was common for Geffen staffers to do additional work for bands outside of their label duties. And Geffen was totally cool about letting people stay later or come in on the weekend and use the computers. Just as often, he says, band managers would request help designing stickers, tour laminates and other pieces for Geffen acts. He did it for Nirvana, Beck and many others without any talk of compensation, though it was considered outside label duties. He saw the additional tasks as a way to support the acts he worked with, and as an extension of the original DIY punk ethos — where photographers might shoot free pictures for a young band and fans provided floors to sleep on for groups traveling cross-country on low-budget van tours. His illustration on the card included a woman dancing in a T-shirt with the smiley face.

Blow torch could be to mean the actual blow torch that was used against her or could be a sexual reference or phallic reference thus when he says I have some seeds it could be food, drugs pot etc or it could be semen. Just the idea that he is defiling her. Clipping her wings. Wings could be reference her hands being attached to a pulley rope as she was unable to use them.

  • “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson
    The Interplay of Authority, Masculinity, and Signification in the “Grunge Killed Glam Metal” Narrative by Holly Johnson A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Affairs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Music and Culture Carleton University Ottawa, Ontario © 2014, Holly Johnson ii Abstract This thesis will deconstruct the "grunge killed '80s metal” narrative, to reveal the idealization by certain critics and musicians of that which is deemed to be authentic, honest, and natural subculture. The central theme is an analysis of the conflicting masculinities of glam metal and grunge music, and how these gender roles are developed and reproduced. I will also demonstrate how, although the idealized authentic subculture is positioned in opposition to the mainstream, it does not in actuality exist outside of the system of commercialism. The problematic nature of this idealization will be examined with regard to the layers of complexity involved in popular rock music genre evolution, involving the inevitable progression from a subculture to the mainstream that occurred with both glam metal and grunge. I will illustrate the ways in which the process of signification functions within rock music to construct masculinities and within subcultures to negotiate authenticity. iii Acknowledgements I would like to thank firstly my academic advisor Dr. William Echard for his continued patience with me during the thesis writing process and for his invaluable guidance. I also would like to send a big thank you to Dr. James Deaville, the head of Music and Culture program, who has given me much assistance along the way.

  • Krist Novoselic, Dave Grohl, and Kurt Cobain
    f Krist Novoselic, Dave Grohl, and Kurt Cobain (from top) N irvana By David Fricke The Seattle band led and defined the early-nineties alternative-rock uprising, unleashing a generation s pent-up energy and changing the sound and future of rock. THIS IS WHAT NIRVANA SINGER-GUITARIST KURT Cobain thought of institutional honors in rock & roll: When his band was photographed for the cover of Rolling Stone for the first time, in early 1992, he arrived wearing a white T-shirt on which he’d written, c o r p o r a t e m a g a z i n e s s t i l l s u c k in black marker. The slogan was his twist on one coined by the punk-rock label SST: “Corporate Rock Still Sucks.” The hastily arranged photo session, held by the side of a road during a manic tour of Australia, was later recalled by photogra­ pher Mark Seliger: “I said to Kurt, T think that’s a great shirt... but let’s shoot a couple with and without it.’ Kurt said, ‘No, I’m not going to take my shirt off.’” Rolling Stone ran his Fuck You un-retouched. ^ Cobain was also mocking his own success. At that moment, Nirvana - Cobain, bassist Krist Novoselic, and drummer Dave Grohl - was rock’s biggest new rock band, propelled out of a long-simmering postpunk scene in Seattle by its incendiary second album, N everm ind, and an improbable Top Ten single, “Smells Like Teen Spirit.” Right after New Year’s Day 1992, Nevermind - Nirvana’s first major-label release and a perfect monster of feral-punk challenge and classic-rock magne­ tism, issued to underground ecstacy just months before - had shoved Michael Jackson’s D angerous out of the Number One spot in B illboard.

  • The Slow Death of Everett True: a Metacriticism
    The slow death of Everett True: A metacriticism Jeremy Thackray A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Creative Industries Faculty Queensland University of Technology 2016 1 Abstract This thesis problematises and investigates the role of the popular music critic in Web 2.0 environments. It does so through an act of metacriticism grounded in my experience as an internationally successful popular music critic for major print publications including NME, Rolling Stone, and Melody Maker. The reflective aspect of the metacriticism is triangulated through interviews with other notable music critics, through a dialectical approach to role definition grounded in the literature, and through the ongoing experiment of Collapse Board, a music blogging site I set up to experience the new environment from the “inside”. Popular music critics have customarily been seen as gatekeepers of ‘cool’ and arbiters of taste. The industrial structure of print allowed critics to earn a living from their craft. The print environment was defined by limited outlets and large readerships with limited access to information. In that environment popular music criticism helped mould the ways popular music was received, consumed, and contextualised. This project asks whether the same holds true in Web 2.0 environments in which audiences have access to the same sources of information through which critics formerly derived their knowledge, authority, and influence. The thesis concludes that there are four major roles of relevance to the critic in the new media environments: bespoke criticism, music critic as fan, music criticism as entertainment, and the music critic as ‘firestarter’.

  • 'Romanticism in Two Musical Repertories: a Comparison of The
    1 ‘Romanticism in Two Musical Repertories: A Comparison of the Music of Frédéric Chopin and the Rock Group Nirvana’ Marco Lombardi, Master of Music - Research School of Music, University of Western Australia 2015 This thesis is presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the Master of Music - Research 2 Abstract This study examines the concept of romanticism within two widely different musical genres and repertories – that is, the music of Frédéric Chopin (1810-1849) and Kurt Cobain (1967-1994) of the rock group Nirvana. The introductory chapter discusses the place of this study amongst other research, especially pertaining to romanticism in rock music. Drawing on a variety of sources, this chapter also explores aspects of the intensely debated concepts of romanticism (and beyond) that are relevant to the two case studies. Chapter 2 examines Chopin and his music through the lens of romanticism. A similar investigation into Kurt Cobain and Nirvana’s music is given in Chapter 3 showing what sort of conclusions can be drawn using categories that are atypical for contemporary rock music, and to what extent they are comparable to those drawn from the studies of Chopin. From such comparative analysis, this study provides some convincing evidence that a variety of musical and non-musical similarities can be discerned between these two artists and their respective musical outputs. The similarities that are revealed come under the broad label of romanticism; and more specifically they further encompass parallels between the two artists in the areas of gender, sickness and death. 3 Table of Contents Chapter One – Introduction 5 Chapter Two – Chopin 11 Chapter Three – Nirvana 29 Chapter Four – Conclusion 44 Bibliography 46 4 Acknowledgments Thanks to Professor David Symons for his guidance and wonderful insight.

  • Place and Punk: the Heritage Significance of Grunge in the Pacific North West
    Place and Punk: The heritage significance of Grunge in the Pacific North West William Kenneth Smith MA By Research University of York Archaeology May 2017 Abstract Academic institutions and the heritage industry are now actively seeking to understand the wider social, cultural and economic processes which surround the production and consumption of popular music histories. Music is a local creation; it is created through a flux of internal and external influences, and is bound up in questions of economy, networks, art, identity and technology. In the early 1990s the Pacific North West of the United States of America gave birth to what became known as the musical genre of ‘grunge’. It developed into a distinctive genre, presenting a style and sound which propagated within the confines of a specific time and place. As construction sites continue to emerge throughout the Pacific North West, the impact of music still provides an essential contribution to the regions character and culture. Despite this, countercultural pasts are vulnerable; not only to the passage of time but also the processes of development, gentrification and marginalization. This research explores the heritage significance of the Pacific North West punk scene. It presents a historiography of punk and an appraisal of the scholarly discourse surrounding place. This study utilizes artifacts, sites and oral histories to explore countercultural material and memories as well as the form and function of punk. Themes such as geography and environment are enfranchised into the discussion as ethnography and multidisciplinary approaches are applied to make a unique contribution to what is an essential and timely discussion regarding people, culture, heritage and place.

    FREE NIRVANA: THE TRUE STORY PDF Everett True | 500 pages | 01 Oct 2006 | OMNIBUS PRESS | 9781844496402 | English | London, United Kingdom Ex-Nirvana art director claims he created smiley-face logo - Los Angeles Times Cobain, the singer and founder of Seattle grunge band Nirvana, was found dead in his Washington state home after taking his Nirvana: The True Story life 25 years ago. Born in February in Aberdeen, Washington, to Wendy and Donald Cobain, his parents divorced when he was 9 years old. Cobain would later say that his parents' divorce had had a profound impact on his life. He also learned how to play guitar and drums. Just two weeks before graduating, Cobain dropped out of high school. During his free time, Cobain attended concerts in Seattle, where he met fellow punk rock fan Krist Novoselic. Cobain and Novoselic became close friends, and Nirvana: The True Story singer asked the bassist to form a band with him. Years after its release, though, it would go platinum. The record would go on to be hailed by Rolling Stone as Nirvana: The True Story of the greatest albums of all time. It would go diamond in album sales, an unprecedented feat for rock artists, meaning over 2 million copies were sold. The spotlight was largely on Cobain thanks to his soft but outspoken demeanor. Cobain would also gain attention from critics and admiration from fans for his candid lyrics and songs. They had one daughter together, Francis Bean. The couple became the talk of the tabloids due to their drug use and behavior.
