Music reviews of Live Through This
Music Review: Raw, Honest and Misunderstood
Rating: 5 Stars
This album is often perceived as a response to the death of Kurt Cobain, although many of the songs were written before the marriage, and certainly before the death. Live Through This chronicles several years of Courtney Love's life, from dating Kurt Cobain (Doll Parts), having Frances taken by child services (Plump), rape (Asking For It), domestic abuse (Jennifer's Body), to her falling short of society's expectations in general. It's a triumph for feminism, and a memoir of survival in a very different time period.
Description of Live Through This
This whole album is filled with scathing fury, mostly directed at the impossible situation that confronts women when they are asked to be both wild sources of pleasure and unblemished mother figures. Live Through This uses the same recipe of punk and metal wrapped around pop melodies that made Nirvana so captivating, but Hole uses the methodology in a more conventional manner. The metal ingredient tends to dominate, perhaps because it's the simplest to master, and too often the album resembles early Heart or late Joan Jett--particularly when Courtney Love opens up with her big, wailing voice. Love externalizes her anger, blaming all her problems on the rest of the world. Self-confrontation makes for far more interesting songs. --Geoffrey HimesGeneral CDs
