Kurt Cobain, namely he has the greatest contribution to the development of music, which he did in the 90s. His personality is still causing a lot of arguments, but anyway, we must respect his contribution.
Vocalist of Nirvana, Kurt Cobain (full name Kurt Donald Cobain),
was born February 20, 1967 in the family housewife Wendy
Elizabeth (nee Fradenburg) and mechanic Donald
Leland Cobain. In the pedigree Cobain
attended to the Irish, English, Scottish and German roots. April
24, at 1970 appeared younger sister
Kimberly.
Family, in which he was born, was not a little, it took
care of in the early stages 8
uncle and aunts. We Can not help
saying that he grew up spoiled, his family never
was great financial wealth, furthermore, to buy them own
home, they spent many years to
necessary sum.
In his childhood, the young Cobain drew a lot, but in spite of his drop-down talents, he
was very shy. However, even at a young age, he did
not consider himself a talented
or gifted and terribly hated being praised or put on
display as an example to other
children.
He became interested in music, thanks to the family circle. His uncle and
aunt, while the time of took him to rehearsals. A little later, on one of the holidays, he was given a a plate The Monkees and The
Beatles. Thus began his acquaintance with
rock, which later spilled over into the meaning of life. At age seven, Kurt was able to play simple songs on the
guitar.
In 1975, Kurt's parents
divorced. This finally broken
a child who was
going to contact with strangers,
not very willingly
For a long time, he could not decide which
parent he should stay. At first he tried to live with his mother, but because of her new mate, he moved to his
father, but there could not get
used to his new wife. As a result, he went to live
with many of his relatives (the
same family of aunts and uncles).
At the age of 13 he started to take drugs, it was the first time he tried
to smoke cannabis. Later on
he started his LCD and other hallucinogen
expirements, he also expereminted
with different inhaled
substances.
At age 14, Kurt gave up drumming and began learning to play the guitar,
given to him by his uncle Chuck,
Warren Mason, musician of The Beachcombers,
was his first teacher. Nearly at
the same time Curt appeared to be
interested in punk after reading an article about the Creep band in
"creem" magazine.
In 1984, 6 months before
graduating from high school, he decides not to
learn. Mother did not approve of his decision and after
an argument, kicked him out of the house. In this period of life, he lived in various
places, from friends, ending a
flophouse. However, such a
situation in a certain sense, he
liked, he considered
himself a true punk rocker.
Kurt already got the idea to create a punk band. Soon he met with members of Aberdeen team
Melvins.Their music combines punk and hard rock (then this
style was named “grunge”). There also
came and Krist Novoselic, whereupon they became friends
One cassette got Krist Novoselic. A few months later, he suddenly started to talk about Cobain that
he would cost to organize a rock band.
The newly-formed team changed some names,
but eventually was chosen «Nirvana». In
1988, the group released their first single - «Love
Buzz / Big Cheese», and the following year went
on sale debut album Nirvana - Bleach.
In 1991 was released the second
album Nirvana - Nevermind, the
group became an unexpected
breakthrough into the mainstream.
Single «Smells Like Teen Spirit», to
everyone's surprise, became a hit on
MTV. Nirvana sudden
success on the international stage has drawn public attention to the Seattle grunge
scene and spawned a wave of imitators.
Media called Nirvana «flagship Generation
X", and the most Cobain - "voice of a
generation."
Cobain had suddenly
fallen down from head discomfort
popularity: he saw himself
first and foremost
representative of the
independent rock scene,
and annoyed that he
became the idol of the masses.
Some health problems haunted
musician from an early age. All his life he suffered from chronic
bronchitis and stomach pain of unclear origin in childhood, he
was diagnosed with attention
deficit hyperactivity
disorder, and he had to to take
Ritalin; later he was diagnosed
with manic depression.
Kurt Cobain's death in 1994, when
«Nirvana» was at the peak of its popularity, shocked the public. Even today, debate
over this tragic event did not cease: whether it was
suicide, "the right moment" to remain permanently at the peak of fame, or someone special "ordered" leader
«Nirvana». Perhaps we never will not
know what is actually was the cause of
death of Kurt Cobain.
By the way: • Kurt Cobain is the
champion among the musicians who have earned more after death than in life. As of 2011 holders of his work have earned over $ 800 million
• "Suicide" Kurt entailed a wave of suicide his fans.
His role in the development of
creativity of many modern rock
bands can not be underestimated. I think it was one of the greatest
rock musicians of the 20th century.
His song is something new in the music world, a new breath of fresh air for the generation and later, and for
ours.Curt Cobain is an
integral part modern youth (and not only)
cultures.
