Sellout

Ack... Nirvana turned corporate whores when they signed to major label Geffen in '91... I'll never forgive them for that.

Sell outs

Dont be at yourself

Surely what actually smells like a sellout is the constant 'defintive' boxsets released every Christmas, releasing Cobain's diaries, or releasing a glorified demo as a new Nirvana track.

Anyway, who gives a shit? Pixies are whoring themselves all over the world at the moment, but I still love them.

I like her line: "...and take Nirvana places it's never been before"

Call me crazy but I thought that when your bands lead singer blows his head off and you haven't gotten a replacement 12 years on then that's a pretty good sign that you're not too interested in going places?

And in response to your comments, It really shows how much people know about Nirvana. The Fact that Courtney Love is the music slut behind the dismiss of Nirvana's records call it "Sell-out" or, what I like to refer to it as, "Record rape", She clearly has all the power behind what happens to the music. Plus we must not forget the Kurt was Murdered. Fact.... and before posting a responce to this, please read the many fact stated articals and strange surrounds of his so called "Sucide", which if reopened today, would in no doubt be a murder case...... I'm angry, oh so angry!!!

Pixies are class. And everybody loves a whore.

I read the story earlier today. And I know plenty about Nirvana - I, like most others, discovered them in my early teens and have since moved on. I'm well aware that Courtney has been a driving force in the release of all those commercial boxsets, re-releases, books, diaries etc. My point was that this carry-on has been going on for years, and the latest story isn't any shock, surprise or cause for anger for me. It's part and parcel of Nirvana these days, and you can either ignore it and enjoy the music, or let it get your back up. Which is a bit silly, really.

Seriously man, what's your problem? You're the child that's got a chip on your shoulder about Courtney Love selling some rights to a "Dead" band's back catalogue. Nirvana were a great band and their music still holds up today, but you seem to be forgetting that they no longer exist. Get over it.

And as for this.....

Why don't you head over here.
Plenty of likeminded people for you to get on with. :rolleyes:

Rockee

I hate the phrase 'sell out' A band will work with whats best for them and them alone. Even the most staunchest fan cannot be their keeper.

Oh boy, You have allot to learn. First of all, you started with the immature Comments, not me!

Secondly It's not a matter of getting over it, or having a chip, It's about standing up for what I believe in! Clearly all you can do it place snidely comments on something you have no interest, substance, ore point of argument to even begin to comment, ..... so why don't you do yourself and everybody else a favor and grow up!

Personally I think Courtney Love is the sellout to something that was great, and in some respects still is great part of Music History! Her sustained wealth from the death of Kurt Cobain is evident in much of her own career..... There is much to be said about why people have let her get away with this for so long. I for one am sick of it!

Now go away child. I'm not wasting anymore time quoting the stupid. :rolleyes:

What does that mean. You 'believe in' Nirvana the band like some people believe in God or socialism. As an ethos 'Nirvana' the band is pretty weak.
Is that your fvcking ethos?

Do you mean that she drives the commercialisation of Nirvana the others take the money don't they.

Hole are/were way better than the foo fighters.

What the fvck is your point. How do you plan to stop her. You are totally pwned by Courtney; she smokes dope from a bong made with Kurt's skull for a bowl and a shotgun barrel. There is nothing you can do about it.

she shagged Kurt and you never will.

I'm going to go out on a limb here, - i like Courtney Love. Yes, thats right. She may be the most hated woman in music since Yoko but here is my opinion.

She gave a very sad and unhappy man (musical genius or not), some brief moments of happiness in an otherwise desperately troubled life. Kurt loved her and together they had a daughter that brought great happiness to the guy. Let us not forget that Kurt was a heroin addict who played music not a musician who took heroin.

Love and Cobain were the perfect disfunctional couple. She is known to have saved his life at least twice, this notion of murder is ridiculous.

People should remember that Kurt never considered himself or the position of rock star as special so why is he treated with such veneration?

I believe that Kurt would want his wife and child to be taken care of before his "legacy". If she has to make unfortunate decisions, so be it.

Its better than that other D**khead Dave Grohl earning more money and kudos out of Kurt's work.

I know you are but what am I?

She lived with him;
He loved her;
She bore his child;
He is dead, who else should make decisions about his legacy.

Courtney pwns you; she shagged Kurt and you never will.
Anyway I reckon you have only heard one Nirvana song and it was 'smells like teen spirit' .

You really have stated the obvious....Great! I've got so much from that mail.
My previous statement stands. And is 'Smells Like teen Sprit the only song you could think of? :rolleyes:

Also.... You clearly have a deep fascination with shaggin dead singers..... Which is Kinda sick dude!! Seek help.

Why is Grohl a d**khead ? I think the Foos are great, he has never tried to be anything like Nirvana.

after Nirvana do you think he should have quit the music industry and become an accountant or something?

stumbled onto this article a few days ago and i must say i was shocked that novasellic and ghrol only own 2% of the entire nirvana back catalogue, i know that kurt wrote most of the music but that still seems unfair.

As for courtney she is doing exactly the oposite of what kurt stood for as a person, still shes been going in and out of bankrupsy so you cant blame her, i bet kurt would want to at least keep his daughter happy and healthy.

As for nirvana being a dead band, thats bull**** when they are still affecting people to a level which they do today, inspiring many people in there early teens away from the evilness of dance and rap music and selling so many albums there is no way you can call them a dead band, you wouldnt call the beatles a dead band would you?

Finally as for the kurt was murdered theory, yea i must agree, when there was no fingerprints found on the shotgun and kurt wasnt wearing any gloves, i mean come on if you dont see that as suspicious theres somthing wrong, it should have been a murder case but theres sweet fu(k all i can do bout it now so i just gotta live with it.
