I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Courtney Love is a controversial figure. A complex individual who is equally adored and reviled. As much as Hole were a band, and not merely her backing group, Love’s experiences with the press, her fans and other rockstars colour her best work. And nowhere is that more apparent than on Hole’s 1994 album Live Through This. Tragedy loomed over its initial release, but its hard-rocking, vitriol-fuelled tracks like “Violet”, “She Walks On Me” and “Olympia”, as well as more introspective moments like “Doll Parts” and “Asking For It” illustrate the trials and tribulations of being Courtney Love circa 1993. These are the traumas and Rockstars that inspired Live Through This.

part of why she was so hated is because of the awful lack of empathy for the struggle of addiction, mix that with the scrutiny and misoginy of the media and is no wonder why that happened. that woman was facing more shit and sadness than kurt and standed her ground and survived even if her own husband didn't. when male rockstars are addicts they're just rockstars but when women are addicts they're bad mothers, bad wives, bad human beings, nobody gave shit to kurt because he was a junkie, people actually think it's cool even today for some reason

Courtney Love is the anti-product of bands like The Runaways, Vixen, and presents a deeper feminist perspective than riot grrrl (which I love just as much). She is a victim who has absorbed the violence around her, just as many victims of trauma do. Unfortunately, she can’t make great music without it, or without contesters screaming that it was “written” by the men around her - Billy, Kurt, etc. Just as Krasner couldn’t escape the legacy of Pollock. I truly love Courtney and appreciate her music, and without her I wouldn’t be as confident in myself as I am today. She is a force to be reckoned with, and unfortunately a lot of “Grunge enthusiasts” still cannot reckon with her power. Sidenote: She isn’t perfect and still has abusive streaks, but look at every male rockstar that has ever been, and tell me they’re perfect, clean angels.

you are loved Riot grrl while important, excluded anyone who wasn't born into being a woman and there's a lot of vehement anti trans takes. I'm glad it's dead, and been replaced with transphobic pseudo intellectual "post leftist" theory. I have never experienced bigotry anywhere in the world like in oly, while at the same time experiencing progressive shit that only exists there. Wether riot grrl is transphobic or phobic of any other people, depends on the lens the person you're asking is looking thru, week to week. Go read some of the zines.

I was about 14 when I first heard Live Through This, and I don't think any album has effected me more than that one. I was young and didn't understand every word, but the strength of the female artistry came through in every single bar - I resonated so strongly with those themes of discomfort in one's female body, feeling like your body doesn't belong to yourself, feeling as though you're a toy to be passed around, feeling that you're making yourself sick with insecurity and love. coming back to it at 21 is even more intense - I feel like I'm rediscovering a part of myself that exists in all young girls, but now with greater clarity.

Saw her perform just a few weeks after Kurt's suicide. That was, in a certain way, the most utterly punk performance I ever witnessed.

Yeah, last song of the set but what a set. Verruca Salt opened.

1) Flyers from August 1991 have some "Violet" lyrics written on them. 2) "Doll Parts" was written when Courtney found out Kurt was seeing other women just three weeks after their first s*xual encounter while on tour on the other side of the Atlantic ocean. They got serious after that (Nov 91). 3) an early "Softer, Softest" was being played during POTI's tour in 1991. 4) "Credit on the Straight World" is a cover. 5) "I Think That I Would Die" was written in collaboration with CL's friendenemy, Kat Bjelland... What did Kurt exactly write? The liner notes on the booklet?

This woman is a true poet! and to me, the embodiment of raw, true, unbridled, female essence. She really personifies ideas of unhinged feminine nature and emotionality. I think that’s why she resonates with so many women, her music gives women permission to be women, untethered from the masculine forces that work to keep the more chaotic natures of women “rational”. She’s not afraid to show the ugly parts of femaleness, and that’s what gives her so much punch. Even in her most unlady like behavior, she remains undeniably feminine.

I just adore the way she writes. I can't get enough! The way she's able to put dark topics into beautiful understated words is phenomenal. I truly admire her as a person for her consistent ruthlessness. Until this day she has held the same morals, views and opinions. She spoke up for women long before anyone gave a shit about us, she got so much shit for everything even though she was no worse than any man in punk/alt/grunge.

The brilliance of her music and the meaning in the music is intense - with a different perspective of feminism I had not been exposed to. It was the beginnings of me understanding myself which propelled me further in exploring the topics she sings about and more. Great video. It is appreciated.

I detest Courtney Love but "Live Through This" was one of the greatest albums in the 90s. "Violet" is an amazing track that any artist would be jealous of. "Softer, Softest", "Jennifer's Body", gosh...pretty much everything but "Gutless" (which isn't bad just isn't as good as the rest) are an amazing set of songs. I was a huge Nirvana fan but my appreciation for that album had nothing to do with her connection to Kurt and it offends me as well when people claim that Kurt must have helped her write it. I do think Love being exposed to Kurt's brilliance rubbed off on her a bit and without his greatness to challenge her creativity we'd never have seen this album....but it is entirely from Hole.

Live Through This has been my fav record since I bought it on CD in 1994, the same week Kurt died. I needed that record at that time, I think a lot of us did. Anyway, just needed to say I learned a lot from this video, despite it being in my frequent rotation for, shit, 27 years. I was at at Hole gig in 1994, just a 13yr old Riot Grl, when my dress was ripped to tatters in the mosh pit, due to being groped by dozens of adult men. The band stopped the gig, and I was pulled up onto the staged given water, cigarettes and a t shirt to cover myself before the launched back into Asking For It. I didn’t know until today that that song was borne of a far too similar incident Courtney experienced.

Wow. Loved this. (No pun ). As Music Director of a then-important New Rock station in San Diego when this came out - I got caught up in the anti -Courtney hype and really wanted to hate this record. I hadn't been moved at all by their first release. But I still remember blasting the full cd over and over 3x before work one morning, and showing up at the station demanding it be added to our playlist immediately. I thought the entire record was brilliant. And frankly, if Kurt had written the songs, I couldn't understand why they were so much more in your face than anything on Nevermind. Went to a few shows soon after where she proved that if she was an asshole, she was the absolute real deal as a rock star. The band was fantastic. I saw Hole put on a swealtering rock barrage at The Hollywood Palladium, and you could never convince me Courtney lacked her own talent. Plus, those songs are so iconically female in perspective, that I doubt Eric had much hand lyrically. Kurt respected his wife too much to even try to write anything for her. Meanwhile...Francis Bean just married Tony Hawk's son here last week. Crazy. It's sad to think of how proud Kurt would have been at a time like this. 🥺

I agree she's not a great person- she's very broken but Courtney is an icon and an incredible female model. That's the best part about her, you can hate and love her at the same time. I adore her artistry so much. She painted flowers with her pain and became a prominent woman in her time. Courtney opened an avenue to talk about female angst. She inspired me that girls can pick guitar and conquer the stage with pure rage. She's a gem among a male-dominated industry and people need to recognize that. It's just that people who hated her are infested with misogyny

So yeah we should be thankful we had Courtney Love, and Kat Bjelland, and L7 and the distillers. Cos they were offering something different, and they were challenging culture. Too bad the world didn’t care much and chose the complete oposite of individuality. So now we have artists and bands that sound all the same sending all the wrong messages to young people, like you have to be extremely pretty and slutty if you wanna be successful.
