Oh my dear sweet heaven, look what they’ve done to Kurt Cobain
You may know that long-deceased Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain is an unlockable character in Guitar Hero 5. What you may not realize is that Kurt won’t just sing Nirvana songs. No, he’ll suddenly become a cover band front man, one who’s a lot more joyful than I remember:
That’s both ghoulish and awesome. Maybe if Nirvana had switched over to full-scale arena rock, Kurt would still be with us today. Hat tip to Agent M for the find.
