Yes he did.

All the songs sound like nevermind outtakes
Yeah and so did that first Bush album. That's what music sounded like in the 90s. There were literally hundreds of bands getting record deals because they all sounded like that.

"Depressed punk playing a stratocaster through fuzz distortion" isn't a sound trademarked by Kurt Cobain. Neither was the whole quiet/loud/quiet songwriting thing.
The first Bush album did not sound exactly like nevermind outtakes like live through this did. Come on now. Yes there were a lot of Nirvana imitators, but when the man's wife's album sounds exactly like it was written by him you have to wonder. Also, when the next album she puts out was written by her new boyfriend it also makes you wonder if she's capable of writing an album

Dan confirmed this clip is Embrace the Darkness on his Instagram story today.

Also said he doesn’t know if Dark Matter Radio will come back. What happened there? He’s still tech-ing for Dave so I don’t think they had a falling out.

Well if this is the "finished" song, I wonder what the unfinished track was. Should just throw them both on a Record Store Day 7" and give the profits to the Surfrider Foundation or someshit, but of course they won't.

Do you think Kurt had zero participation in the writing of that album?

I dont think you'd honestly answer "no."

So it's not a ridiculous stretch to think he wrote most of it. Much less of a ridiculous stretch when to consider Courtney murdering him.

He co-wrote a b-side.

"Old Age" was a pretty cool unfinished Nirvana track that Courtney put her own spin on. Don't think she tried to pass it off as her own, but I'm no expert on the matter. And then she played that "You Got No Right" or whatever unreleased song on Unplugged and introduced it as a Kurt song. I think Kurt was her Casey.. bouncing ideas off and looking for feedback, but not like he was the ghost-writer.

Im not a big Nirvana fan
but In Utero is a masterpiece, one of best rock albums ever,
the album have a clear inspiration from his life with Courtney, I think Kurt really loved that bitch.

My favourite Nirvana song is an unreleased bside

I just had a thought- does anyone have any access to music trading circles? It might be circulating that way...

Circle of the Noose was exclusively going around within those circles for a long time so maybe there's a chance its out there also?

Guy at the bottom of this thread (NIN forum) says it’s been in trading circles for like a decade. However - isn’t this the jasper guy that left years ago after flipping out in NIN threads and that movie thread? If so, that would make the claim less credible.

I forgot that guys name but it wasn't Jasper. You are correct that he melted down a few times like Jasper. He had NY in his user name. Anyone with a better memory than me?

Not that I am in the trading circles anymore but I don't think it is out there.

He asks if they removed it from YouTube again so he clearly doesn't know what he's talking about.

Yup..."Old Age" was cowritten by Kurt and credited as such; released by Hole when Kurt was alive.

After 26 years, does anyone have any concrete evidence that Kurt wrote Live Through This...or just the same old speculation? :essence:

I don't think there is any proof.

But isn't it naive thinking that Courtney didn't ask for his opinion while she was writing?

That’s entirely different than the claim that Kurt wrote the album.

Well, I suppose it's somewhere in the middle... who knows, and in the end, who cares.
