Kurt Cobain / Kurt Cobain: biography
Kurt Cobain, the famous American singer and musician, a member of the world famous rock band Nirvana, was born in Aberdeen on February 20, 1967.
He was born in a poor family, his mother was a housewife, and his father earned a living working as an auto mechanic.
Kurt was not the only child in the family, three years after his birth, he had a little sister Kimberly.
Kurt's parents were not interested in the creative sphere of life, so they could not instill in their son a love for the beautiful.
However, the love of art in its various manifestations was present in many of Kurt's relatives.
Kurt Cobain's Childhood
A serious influence on the formation of Kurt's creative side was exerted by his mother's brother Chuck Fradenburg, who was a member of a musical group.
Mary Earle Kurt's aunt, played the guitar virtuosically and often performed as part of various ensembles.
On his seventh birthday, Cobain received a drum kit as a gift from his beloved aunt.
Kurt's great — uncle Delbert chose a career as a tenor and even starred in one little known film.
Cobain's grandmother, who was a professional artist, saw in her grandson the hidden potential of a talented and skillful artist and encouraged his various manifestations in every possible way.
Given such a large number of creative personalities among Cobain's relatives, it was not surprising that from a young age, parents began to notice some manifestations of creative inclinations in Kurt.
Already at the age of three or four, he enthusiastically sang the songs of The Beatles.
In the same years, Kurt wrote his first song, which was inspired by an exciting trip to the park.
At the age of seven, Kurt had a serious shock associated with painful experiences after his parents ' divorce.
Both the father and mother found new partners and began to establish their personal lives, forgetting that they have a young son together who needs attention and support from family members.
Caring grandparents took over the responsibility for Kurt's upbringing.
At the age of 14, Kurt became seriously interested in playing the guitar, and also became interested in punk.
The idea of creating his own punk band practically did not leave his thoughts.
After graduating from high school, Kurt did not manage to firmly connect his life with music, since his mother was categorically against his son's admission to an art college.
Due to disagreements with his mother, Cobain had to leave his own house and spend a long time with friends, and sometimes even on the street.
During his wanderings, Kurt was often visited by inspiration, and in these moments he wrote his first adult songs.
After some time of vagrancy, Kurt still had to get a job in order to somehow improve his life.
At the age of eighteen, Kurt created his own musical group called Fecal Matter, in which he took on the duties of vocalist and guitarist, but this union was not destined to achieve serious success, the collective was inharmonious, the group was doomed to collapse.
Nevertheless, the recordings of the band's songs were quite good and it was thanks to them that Kurt still managed to create a new rock band, eventually called Nirvana.
Kurt Cobain's career in the band Nirvana
In 1989, the band released their first music album with the name Bleach.
The 1991 album "Nevermind" produced a bombshell effect in the music industry.
The song "Smells Like Teen Spirit", the success of which the band members did not count on much, quickly became a hit on all radio stations and even on the incredibly popular American channel MTV at that time.
This hit in its popularity significantly surpassed the lead song of the album "Lithium", on which the band members made the main bets.
Nevertheless, the second album of Nirvana became a decisive moment in the band's career, taking it to the very top of fame.
Nirvana has not only a huge number of fans, but also groups of imitators.
Kurt began to be burdened by the popularity that suddenly fell on him, and he decided to add more heavy sounding songs to the next album, which, according to his calculations, should have sifted out the broad masses of listeners, so that only true connoisseurs of rock music remained among the fans.
The third album of Nirvana "In Utero" slightly reduced the excitement around the band, but still the songs of Cobain and his team still easily conquered the music charts.
In addition to his musical activities, Kurt also led an active social life.
He defended the rights of women, sex minorities, and also spoke quite sharply in defense of the participants of the pro choice movement, for which he repeatedly received written threats from representatives of the opposing pro lifers movement.
Personal life of Kurt Cobain
Kurt met his future wife Courtney in 1990 at one of the musical concerts.
Courtney was also seriously interested in music and was even a member of one little known musical group.
Courtney Love and Kurt got married on February 24, 1992 on a beautiful Hawaiian beach.
The extravagant couple bore little resemblance to the classic bride and groom: Courtney was dressed in the dress of her favorite actress Frances Farmer, and Kurt could not even bring himself to wear a classic suit, so he attended the ceremony in pajamas.
On August 18 of the same year, the couple had a beautiful daughter, Frances Bean Cobain.
The Cobains ' family life was overshadowed by serious media interference in their personal lives thanks to an unsuccessful interview with Courtney, in which she accidentally mentioned that she used heroin during pregnancy, when she did not yet know that she was expecting a child.
This interview cost the Cobain family dearly, law enforcement agencies raised the issue of depriving both parents of their parental rights and even obliged them to undergo regular drug testing.
Such an accusation against Kurt and his wife deeply offended the musician, but, unfortunately, he failed to stop the scandal that unfolded around his personal life.
The death of Kurt Cobain
Kurt Cobain died on April 5, 1994.
His body was found in a greenhouse three days after his death.
The police concluded that Kurt committed suicide by shooting himself in the head with a gun, having previously taken a large dose of drugs that were incompatible with life.
Many different factors can be blamed for Cobain's death, ranging from childhood without attention from parents and ending with a rampant lifestyle in school years, as well as a serious experience of taking heavy drugs, as a result of which his family life turned into a real hell.
