30 years without Kurt Cobain: How much do you know about the god of grunge?

Thirty years ago these days, the world woke up in shock to some very surprising news. At the height of his fame, Kurt Donald Cobain committed suicide after achieving what so many longed for. It was April 5, 1994. Instead of slowly fading, a flash. But before that, he had changed the course of music: he had heralded the end of disco, glam and hard rock, he had brought a simultaneously depressed and angry mood into fashion and he had attracted millions of young people to the streets. For that creative and loud nihilism, the underground inspiration… even if it sold more than all the others. We review the life and work of an icon without whom the 1990s cannot be understood.
