Aug 04, Farahdiba Khan rated it it was amazing. I have never watched Montage of Heck. It doesn't seems to be available in my country I live in India btw I am happy to read the interviews from Kurt Cobain's family his dad, mom, step-mom and sister , Krist, Tracy and even Courtney. I think these people too are confused about his death. They seem to try to interpret him from their own perceptions. Anyway, I'll be reading more books later. Need to read Tom Grant's book too. I've absolutely adored Kurt Cobain and his life since the literal moment I was born thanks Dad so I have no idea why it took me so long to get around to this. There are so many aspects of Kurt's life which so many people don't know about and having this compilation of his journals and art "All artists are, in a sense, writing their own biographies with their work. There are so many aspects of Kurt's life which so many people don't know about and having this compilation of his journals and art pieces just really summed him up as a person. May 05, Liliana rated it it was amazing. So I've watched the movie and I've read the book. Both endings have made me cry to death and have made me think about my life. There's not a lot to say really, it's got nice pics and interview quotes that didn't make it into the film which is great considering there's some vulnerable and hurtful things in that book. Kurt Cobain had a unfair life and I've never felt so sorry for someone in my life. He had a terrible childhood, he got too much fame, and then drugs took over his whole life. The So I've watched the movie and I've read the book. The drugs took over everything which is what happens when you take something as terrible as heroin. And his story has convinced me fully to never touch a drug in my life. Kurt Cobain was a good person, he was just ultimately too sensitive for this world. If you're a fan, you'll love the movie and book. It's just hard to take in. Apr 30, Tom rated it really liked it Shelves: pacific-northwest , music. Although this book is relatively short, only pages, I learned just as much about Kurt Cobain the person as I did from reading longer, more detailed biographies about Nirvana and Kurt Cobain the rock star. Before reading this book, I'd failed to notice how well Cobain expressed himself through his art. What he concisely "said" through visual art would take countless words to express--and probably not be as truthful. Montage of Heck is a very quick read and well worth the time.

I am a massive Nirvana fan and when I saw that an insightful documentary and book was being made about one of the most influential people of the 90's [and arguably, ever] I was super excited. Honesty, I enjoyed the insight into his life because it helped to explain his background and how it shaped him. She contradicted herself a lot of times and it I am a massive Nirvana fan and when I saw that an insightful documentary and book was being made about one of the most influential people of the 90's [and arguably, ever] I was super excited. She contradicted herself a lot of times and it was very disheveled to read though. I haven't seen the movie that this book accompanies yet, but I hope too! This is a collection of memorabilia, interviews, drawings and memories of Kurt Cobain lead singer of Nirvana, y'all! It creates a more well-rounded picture of the man, rather than the mythology that often surrounds public figures that die young. I found Krist Novoselic's stories particularly interesting since he was in the band from the beginning. Oct 09, Yuce rated it liked it. I chanced upon it today in the local community library here, then one thing led to another and before I knew it I was done with the book. And with the band many years ago, as a matter of fact. I could never understand what was it with the band doing a different kinda sound. It was in majority a quite lot of noise really. Neither could I like the book much. It was badly and hastily written. Feels like I wasted an entire afternoon after this book. Not even worth a single read. This is definitely a very interesting but also quite emotional read. I really like that we get all the information from people that were really close to him; so it is not written in a text but more in an interview form where his friends and family talk about him which feels quite intimate. I can really recommend this book to everyone who wants to get to know more about him, his life and his music and art. May 15, John rated it it was amazing. I have never been a big Nirvana fan but this book and the documentary are awesome. I would love to see more of Kurt's journal pages and cassette transcriptions. The interviews are really good, clear and concise. Jul 08, Steph rated it really liked it Shelves: nbhs , read This is a collection of memorabilia, interviews, drawings and memories of Kurt Cobain. Aug 31, Trey Nowell rated it it was amazing. I still remember the day he died, the feeling all over the world, television, schools We are lucky to have such great material he put out and see all the generations Cobain touched. A lot of things I did not know about Kurt Cobain, like his stomach battles, very informative book. May 09, David Musto rated it it was amazing. This is an absolutely essential part of the documentary. Please read my full review here. No one in the world was. I remember the look on my co-host's face. We put it on the air immediately. And my obsession with grunge music began. Just as Nirvana took elements of music we had heard before and made them sound new, filmmaker Brett Morgen deconstructs the music documentary and makes it feel new again. In fact, this is one of the best music documentaries ever made. It is not hagiography. There are also documentaries that serve the opposite purpose —to pull a Rock God from the heavens down to Earth. It is more intimate, more emotional, and more personal than either of those easy extremes. It is a true peek into the life of a private superstar. How did he become a rock icon? How did he turn his childhood pain into art? The story has been up on its site since inherited from digitalnirvana. What seems to have happened is this: a Frank Zappa-loving blog called United Mutations picked up on the Livenirvana post a couple of months ago, and reprinted it wholesale , credited — Zappa is among the many artists sampled on the tape. If Tracy Marander remembers rightly, it was actually and Kurt used a two-track recorder. It was all made in Aberdeen, I believe. It took him quite a while. The TV ones are a mix of 60s to 80s TV shows, old movies, bad movies, bits of commercials and late night infomercials. Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck movie review () | Roger Ebert Divorced from the images, the sounds on these tapes are little more than lint emptied out of the last pocket of a life. In the film, his first girlfriend Tracy Marander recalls that while Cobain was living with her, he was unemployed and would watch television for hours, strumming his guitar abstractedly. You can imagine that a few of these tracks were recorded in similar states. This hits upon the main issue with releasing Cobain's home-tapes: As King Buzzo of the Melvins noted of this film, Cobain was " a master of jerking your chain. There are brief audio clips of him playing with sped-up and slowed-down voices. No damage to the jewel case or item cover, no scuffs, scratches, cracks, or holes.
