This iconic 1994 album put Courtney Love on the map. Live Through This features grunge anthems like "Violet", "Miss World" and "Doll Parts".
Hole’s second album, Live Through This, famously came out four days after Love’s husband Kurt Cobain was found dead at their home in Seattle. The sudden tragedy threatened to swallow the music, to say nothing of the genre and social movement in which it was encased.
The story of a dead rock god, and Love was the woman who survived him. Even the album’s title alluded to Love’s endurance through a ground-shaking trauma, though of course she had written the title about surviving her fame, surviving her fraught association with the most beloved man in rock, surviving her pregnancy with their child, surviving the tabloid rumors that would continue to swarm her decades later as a result.
