Kurt Cobain was being known as a genius in the field of arts. Before he died, and even before he became a rock icon, he was an excellent painter. This is where his passion in the arts flourished, making music as his specialization.
Due to this, Kurt Cobain, as a musician and a rock music aficionado, had so many rock bands in mind to admire about. Other than the famous rock bands before his era that influenced him, there were many unpopular bands that he adored, including art rock and some that should had been defined more than as alternative music, since these bands produced more aesthetic depth in overall musicality. If it hadn’t been for his favorite bands, Nirvana’s music wouldn’t be uniquely popular as it had been. So here’s the list of Kurt’s favorite bands he listened to before and during his rock n roll fame:
- Leadbelly
