Her intelligence, ambition and appetite for confrontation have made her a target in a music industry still dominated by men. As Kurt Cobain's wife she was derided as an opportunistic groupie; as his widow she is pitied, and scorned, as the madwoman in rock's attic. Yet Hole's second album, Live Through This, awoke a feminist consciousness in a generation of young listeners.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLive Through This arrived in 1994, at a tumultuous point in the history of American music. Three years earlier Nirvana's Nevermind had broken open the punk underground, and the first issue of a zine called Riot Grrrl had been published. Hole were of this context and yet outside of it: too famous for the strict punk ethics of riotgrrrl, too explicitly feminist to be the world's biggest rock band.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLive Through This is an album about girlhood and motherhood; desire and disgust; self-destruction and survival. There have been few rock albums before or since so intimately concerned with female experience. It is an album that changed lives – so why is Courtney Love's achievement as a songwriter and musician still not taken seriously, two decades on?\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Yearbook Records","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44413531553875,"sku":null,"price":14.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0620\/3670\/5363\/files\/103-LiveThroughThis.jpg?v=1775574796","url":"https:\/\/www.yearbookrecords.com\/products\/33-1-3-series-holes-live-through-this-by-anwen-crawford","provider":"Yearbook Records","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
