Remember Courtney Love when she looked like this. Fucked up, true, but way cool. Before there was Cobain there was Pretty On The Inside -an excellent punk rock album. After there was Cobain there was the MTV Unplugged boot with still unreleased classic Hole songs.
Instead talentless Billy Corgan put his two cents in and Celebrity Skin was the begining of the end for Love’s recording career.
Now comes new she has reformed “the name” Hole. However without guitarist Eric Erlandson and bassist Melissa Auf der Maur it would appear to be a little meaningless.The new album with the Celebrity Skin producer has me dreading another disaster but Love did get one thing right. “”It’s four letters,” she told Rolling Stone. “It is one of the best band names in f—ing history, if I do say so myself. For a while, I was a little embarrassed it was maybe vulgar but at least it’s not phallic. It’s H-O-L-E, it’s a great band name, and it’s mine.”
