Kurt Cobain: the journals By the time of his death, Kurt Cobain had become the voice of his generation, the most influential American musician since Bob Dylan. During his short, explosive career, his pioneering music with Nirvana, tempestuous marriage to Courtney Love and struggle with heroin all ensured he was never out of the headlines. In private... he was increasingly ill at ease with his fame. Barney Hoskyns charts his meteoric rise and tragic suicide.
FRAUDSTERS used dead rocker Kurt Cobain's social security number to buy a $3.2million HOUSE, it emerged yesterday. The Nirvana frontman's widow Courtney Love revealed that identity thieves had ... set up 188 credit cards in her name.
Cobain returned to Seattle within a week of his hospitalization and his mental illness began to grow. On March 18, the police had to again talk the singer out of suicide after he locked himself in a room threatening to kill himself. Love and Nirvana's management organized an intervention program that resulted in Cobain's admission to the Exodus Recovery Center in L.A. on March 30, but he escaped from the clinic on April 1, returning to Seattle. His mother filed a missing persons report on April 4. The following day, Cobain shot himself in the head at his Seattle home.

When Kurt was on a seminar in July 1993 he overdosed on heroin. Courtney injected him with an illegal drug to save him. Later that same day he went on stage and played a concert, no one noticed anything. From now Kurt’s drug abuse was starting to get out of hand. Courtney threatened several times to divorce him if he did not get treatment for his abuse. He agreed to get treatment for his abuse, but didn’t last long at the rehab centre.
Following a tour stop at Terminal Eins in Munich, Germany, on March 1, 1994, Cobain was diagnosed with bronchitis and severe laryngitis. He flew to Rome the next day for medical treatment, and was joined there by his wife on March 3. The next morning, Love awoke to find that Cobain had overdosed on a combination of champagne and Rohypnol (Love had a prescription for Rohypnol filled after arriving in Rome). Cobain was immediately rushed to the hospital, and spent the rest of the day unconscious. After five days in the hospital, Cobain was released and returned to Seattle.[30] Love later stated that the incident was Cobain's first suicide attempt.[31]
Kurt Cobain. Cobain suffered a drug addiction that started when he was a teenager. He was a persistent user of cocaine and heroin. Later in his career, he was admitted into rehab several times. On his final visit to a rehab centre, he jumped a wall and escaped to his home. His death was ruled a suicide in 1994. But there is alot of talk and debate about it. There was a theory that Kurt was murdered, likely by his wife and musician Courtney Love, something that is still widely believed today by many fans of Cobain.
