( Kurt Cobain ) Brown Towel - Unknown 1986

[krang0117]

he wrote "god is a water chameleon", jeez read a book from time to time guys! Seriously, an 11 year old Nirvana fan knows that, gosh.

[koutaa55]

@krang0117 yeah, because you're 11

[HaloOfIgnorance]

@krang0117

no he didn't god damn dude.

[jordomatio]

@krang0117 I beileve it was Fire chameleon

[HaloOfIgnorance]

people on the outside.. all they hear is a guitar riff, or just plain old noise..

But, I hear emotion, a story behind this simple guitar riff..

I feel the emotion..

you know? anyone else feel that way?

[Wolfpaw7000]

@HaloOfIgnorance I do feel that too, I always have shivers when I hear this, some kind of clenching in my stomach and it makes me feel so nostalgic, especially with that picture in the video :I I wish the song would be longer...

[kubaragiant]

this is not nirvana

[captainwillard2011]

sure this isnt jeff buckley or something

[mike856bb]

Song sounds like a hobo jam of Soundgardens "Applebite".

[vanessacrib]

fake song?

[craphill]

@vanessacrib could be.. but its fucking amazing!

[TheMilitantCritic]

noise

[snoopyprobbing]

if god didnt want gays he wouldnt of created them................. or did it

[queenmagic1982]

yes it's kurt what he did he has been in jail really ? but why ?

[zveena]

@queenmagic1982 He was caught writing "God is gay" or "Ain't got no how watchamacalit" on a van,or maybe on the side of a bank,it's not sure...

[djyokophono]

Well, God is Gay and Gay is God...If your gonna go that route, Hetro is so satan..these days...

[zimonslot]

He looks like a regular knucklehead from aberdeen here. Who knew this kid was a genius...

[AmethystAnarchyAngel]

What the hell? Funny pic though, wasn't he like 18 here?

[HunterLeePatterson]

@AmethystAnarchyAngel 19

[NewWaveBoss]

I, too, have to admit that it has his certain feel. It definitely could be real.

[edstac5]

Haunting. I wonder....it has his touch...Thanks for sharing.

[Soundwasteland]

This song is weird and trippy at the same time,I like it.

[supergirl350555]

What's the song?

[bjmarchives]

@kiranaladdin of course... lol.. but 19 yr old kurt did not have studio time.. think about it.

[talenhardt]

I aint got no whatchamacallit

is what he spray painted on the side of the bank

[ebonics4everyone]

I remember where I was when Kurdt died. I was sitting in a theater drinking a diabetic latte and Rollaids watching Zed buggar Marcellus Wallace. Then my homie Reverb calls my pager and tells me. I shaved my dredlocks off and burned all my GAP flannels the next day.

[bjmarchives]

ha terrible. and not from 1986.. use your brains. this is definitely digitally recorded and not on some cheap cassette recorder.

[Monchi2006]

he looks cool on the pic

[xBambiSlaughterx]

It's him indeed, why are you still saying that it looks like him, and 12615 is indeed the one that was given him on the mugshot.

[CreedChrist]

it looks a lot like him

[bobalicious4u]

his sideways picture looks like eric foreman from that 70s show.

[theschranzer666]

the picture its not fake

[jamjamsterjiggidyjay]

@theschranzer666 i can confirm this.

[AaronLeeParvin]

Kurt is will forever... in our hearts

[ihatesuburbia83]

hes an adorable little pisces male

[rsohlich1]

@ihatesuburbia83 hahaha he is....I have a moon in pisces and I love kUrt a lot. He seemed to have all the good piscean qualities :)

[HaloOfIgnorance]

Is it just me, or do you feel and instant connection with this song? I think this is real.. Ive listen to fakes before, and I didn't connect with them. But I soon as I heard this, I had to keep re-playing it.. The melody is engraved into my head.... idk maybe its just me, but I feel the connection.

[RustBuzz]

@HaloOfIgnorance I feel it too. It really sounds like kurt playing, and the audio sounds about right for it being in the late 80's. Also its known that Kurt fucked around alot, and made some experimental stuff like this. Anyways this melody is so melancholy. This is probably why I keep coming back to this song.

[HaloOfIgnorance]

@RustBuzz

haha yeah I know. he loved to screw around with sounds and just experiment with stuff. Would of loved to have known him, or at least gotten to say hi. You don't see people do this today. Their all categorized, and don't really step out of their boundries.

and Yes, this song is addicting to listen to.. love it.

[ChaChaHancho]

This could very easily be buzz osborne as well. It's beautiful either way.

[eraserhead321]

Wow. I actually think this is the real deal. There was definitely a 'Brown Towel' demo type thing. Production sounds about right for the era also. I wish I knew for definite :(

[The6degreeseparation]

@eraserhead321; I think you might be right. No one in the world is clever enough to even play a riff like that. Most idiots that are Nirvana fans think they have Cobain down to the T in their small minds and play shit like Seether or think that every song that would have come out had he not died would sound like the song "stain". I believe this demo was a real deal.

[TheSovietPancake]

is it possible that this is the instrumental the fecal matter tape? 

[captspace2]

sounds like the start of breed.

[Wutwut1n1]

@captspace2 it's much slower though

[SultanOfTheOrient]

The picture is the result of graffiti.. He got caught writing God is gay on the side of a bank.

[The6degreeseparation]

@SultanOfTheOrient: He never wrote "God is Gay" on any wall and arrested for that. He got arrested for writing "ain't got no whatchamacallit" on a wall.

[mynamedontmind]

@SultanOfTheOrient hes my hero :D Im not gay but got the same thinkings of him

[heffalumpsandwoosles]

@1Sifting God is gay.

[SpaztallicA]

@1Sifting god is such a faggot

[TheWites]

@SultanOfTheOrient He got caught writing God is gay and Homo sex rules :)

[craphill]

@TheWites he was caught writing "Ain't got no how watchamacallit"

[HunterLeePatterson]

@SultanOfTheOrient It was actually "Ain't got no how watchamacallit"

[23hooey]

@SultanOfTheOrient it actually wasnt god is gay it was something else at the end he wrote whatchamacallit

[misterkurdt]

@23hooey I think it was "Ain't got no how watchamacallit". It makes me piss every time I read that XD

[VaiTomarN0Cu]

@SultanOfTheOrient he also shot himself with a field load, the guy was an idiot

[Triumph72]

@VaiTomarN0Cu You're an idiot.

[MegghanAlison]

@VaiTomarN0Cu FUCK YOU.

[HaloOfIgnorance]

@VaiTomarN0Cu

he changed lived and music. have you done that? i dont think so. so shut the fuck up.

[jesse825cool]

sounds like a song that the velvet underground would do

[jimmy27paul]

@redstripe19 Ha ha, good one....but my point still stands.

[195jordan]

It's definetly kurt, he doesn't look 19 though he looks about 21 at least.

[elgritodelasardina]

i love his teen style, its spooky

[fpsZach1]

fake...look at the neck ,and Cobain did not have broad shoulders like the guy with the athletic build the photo'd over.. no brainer here

[MrSoullicker]

@fpsZach1 no the picture is very real, and i wouldn't call thoses shoulders broad, the song can't really tell you, don't know why anyone would think the song had anything to do with kurt since you don't hear anyones voice, but the picture is real

[OnlyTy91]

The chords sound sorta reminiscent of 'All Apologies'. lol. I'll bet this is legit.

[tbanderson45]

I dont really care if this is from Kurt or not, the song itself is just beautifull.

[ESCStudios]

I had a friend that looked just like Kurt but he is dead. Murdered actually.

[ESCStudios]

NIce music. Could be ReleVANt for A movie.

[Markthompson123]

5/25/86 19 year old kurt

[JurzeeDee7o3]

so what exactly is this song about>? is it a mood swinger? an instrumental he forgot to write to? what is it?

[LunchBox5510]

its him the police sign says "Aberdeen" that where he grew up

[KradianDiet]

how can we tell this is real :/

[spiralcrystal09]

what song is playing in the background?

[PivotMakeranimations]

@spiralcrystal09 the songs is a suppost 1986 Nirvana song

[MrGrowlify]

song??



[Vincecouk]

This guy is fucking DEEeead. He DIIEED!! Yeea.

Great artist.

[jimmy27paul]

Kurt was just 19 and when you look him he had at 50% more testosterone than the average 19 yr old US teenager today. Americans your food supply is laced with female hormones lol!

[poopoopedoopify]

@jimmy27paul I guess you never met Kurt, let alone the average American.

[kozmicblues14]

@jimmy27paul I KNOW like when i watch 60s-90s movies 0r clips of the ppl form that decade I notice the guys are a lot taller and have a lot more manly qualities. a lot of yhe guys at my school on average are 5'3- 5'8 tall( even the older ones)( Im a girl im 5'7 and about 15 yrs) I m not hating pn the, cuz im tall im just wondering why ppl arent that big I Guess im Just super tall/

[jimmy27paul]

@kozmicblues14 Your absolutely right,but its not just the guys.If you looked at women of that era....ironically there stronger....there more like .....women....The women you see today look more like overgrown schoolgirls. Its weird.

[kozmicblues14]

@jimmy27paul Yeahh Im 15 and im always mistaken for 18-21 years old. like when I just entered High school a lot of the sophtomores/jiniors/seniors who just me ment me thought i was in their grade but ima freshman lol

[xsolent]

@jimmy27paul

Leprechaun man. Go river dance yourself off a cliff.

[redstripe19]

@jimmy27paul Americans? more like Earth.

[jimmy27paul]

@redstripe19 Afraid not dude.

[LanIost]

@jimmy27paul:

I think Kurt would have had a problem with that statement. He would be the kind of guy to laugh it off though probably.

[jimmy27paul]

@LanIost Certainly, but the fact still stands. And im not here to upset anybody but they have being putting estrogen in the US food supply for years. Notice Kurts eyes, look at the intensity in them. Most US bands, actors etc today have a deer lost in headlights look in their eyes. Its obvious from a foreigners perspective but not to you because you grew up with it and not old enough to remember when things were different.

[ihatesuburbia83]

@jimmy27paul you are so right, im from the states, im a 28 yr old female and very aware of the crap theyre putting in our water and food supply. the men and women back in the day were more on the ball, more natural and vibrant. it is believed that the alpha male in the states alone is becoming extinct. the men are indolent, unmotivated, immature and lack paternal instincts like providing and protecting. its crazy.

[LanIost]

@jimmy27paul:

Dude killed himself. You can't tell me he wasn't emotional.

[chokoliger07]

@LanIost you need balls to kill your self jaja

[dusted04]

@chokoliger07 no you need balls to stay alive and face your demonds !

[chokoliger07]

@dusted04 obviously, check out my videos dude, i see you are a musician

[LiveLaughLoveladida]

@chokoliger07 never a truer word said

[badromenful]

Search realivemovement

[MrPooToob]

I'm on a plain

[JoRdOguitarman1]

@MrPooToob I can't complain

[CAMERAMANJJB]

when he was booked supposedly he had a tape on him. it was "m.d.c." a band from austin, tx i believe. anyhow "m.d.c." supposedly stood for all sorts of things but Kurdt & many others knew it as "millions of dead cops"

[TheBurchBoy]

yeah thats kurt

[antigrav118]

he was pretty scrawny

[adrianskarstad]

Did Kurt make this by himself? It's beautiful. From when I was 11-15 I ONLY listened to Nirvana, I still listen to them tho, but also a lot of electronic instrumental stuff. This was like a perfect combination.

I am so glad to hear that he tagged such a thing as "homosexual sex rules" and got arrested. I'm gay, and I'm accepted by most people cause I'm pretty much a normal guy, but there are always some pussies trying to bash. The fact that Kurt hated homosexuals means the world to me.

[KresauntKid]

@adrianskarstad Kurt Didn't hate homosexuals. His best friend growing up was actually homosexual, and a lot of his songs are about homophobia in the towns he grew up in. He even said: "I started being really proud of the fact that I was gay even though I wasn't." He hated homophobes, racists, and sexists. He felt that every individual should be treated as well as everyone else.

[5stringofFernandoSor]

I don't know why, but this song is really genius and I can't get it out of my head now. It's like a trippy old song from the 60's that you never heard before, but you think you've heard it dozens of times.

[sjk741]

that could have been any guitar player tho...

[jokersh3]

what the heck if its not a cobain song, ill take it for mine, and ill gona finish it, its very hilarious song, notes etc, its awesome song.

[DigitalFlapper]

I love this song wish i knew if it were a fake or not.

[dimebuckerpickups]

@wangobangodango alot of wannabe kurts like silverchair and puddleofmudd..i like silverchair

[simpsonNirvana94]

Fake, 100% fake.

[iSTAYuGO]

Damn i wish i would never hera Nirvana! But would i be the same.....i doubt.

Keep the fingers up and have a day!

[devoh]

look at the size of his freaking neck... dude could have been rugby or hockey player

[maddymud]

@devoh except for the fact that he hated sports.

[devoh]

@maddymud I know.. but apparently he was a very gifted wrestler briefly

[maddymud]

@devoh oh yeah, thas right. He woulda been a good grappler, had the low-to-the-ground thing going on. scrappy. I know he hated sports mostly because of his dad ...

[100Lavender]

the photo is from when spray painted something on a car... or from when he threw 7up cans at cop cars.

[KresauntKid]

@100Lavender He spraypainted "aint got no watchamacallit" somewhere, and this is the mugshot from when he got busted doing it.

[100Lavender]

@KresauntKid ah thank you.

[ToxicityGuitar]

the police took this photo when they arrested kurt cobain you was taging

[joaoa13portugal]

i think i got it, Kurt Cobain created ambient on his songs, it wasnt just instruments playing, it had always something more, on some Nirvana songs he actually coughs or does something like that which makes you believe that there were people on those recordings, there was life, of course there always has to be but Kurt showed it to people by acting normally even when recording a song

we miss you Kurt

[Ned029]

I think thats a mug shot of when Kurt got caught spray painting something on the walls but his friends got away and the one cop caught him.I read this in the book that has his journals with the red cover that looks like a notebook.The book has copies of Kurts drawings and some look like comic sketches and in some pages he had lyrics that were written down in notes before the songs came out this notebook has copies of his own journals,Coutrney Love exploited kurts death.

[joaoa13portugal]

a very simple song...yet i loved it!

[Sebrokz]

i was burn in 1987

But i love Nirvana :)

[suckmyBASSandCHOKE]

@Sebrokz I was born in 1995, and I breathe Nirvana :)

[A2Z83]

well they did do that song that was just bass and kurts vocal. that wasnt loud and im pretty sure it was from the same time ast he other songs they did together.

[kachala]

i never saw this photo before

[12101916]

Is this from the time he got arrested for spray painting "God is gay"?

[66mondo66]

@12101916 yeah it is. lol fucking guy eh? actually, i dont think he tagged it himself, he was with his buddies, and when they were caught, they hid in a dumpster while kurt took the blame! lol they also tagged 'homosexual sex rules' hehehe

[EggiMcSpeck]

@66mondo66 you are wright

i read the biography and it says that they sprayed "god is gay" on a wall

when they searched kurt, he also had a audio cassette named "millions of dead cops" with him :D

[66mondo66]

@EggiMcSpeck lol i had no idea of the cassette tape!

[SoDamnBionic]

he was so hot at 19

[fakeis751]

Mm i don't think Kurt and Buzzo were into this kind of music back then. They were doing louder, noisier stuff.

[adamkincaid1234]

Yeah that's him. He was spray painting on a wall "ain't got no how whatchamacallit" and the cops picked him up and booked him. He later said that he wrote "god is gay" on the wall but he didn't. Now you know, folks.

[atlarano98]

@adamkincaid1234 heavier than heaven



[adamkincaid1234]

@atlarano98 - you know what that means, and I know what that means, but I wonder how many other people here do?

[therunningtap]

@adamkincaid1234 I do too, its great

[kenmabie]

@atlarano98 its a shit book full of speculations ... just read amazons reviews of it ... also i have it and have read it myself... and yes its nothign but speculation and courtneys offcial story ... (its jsut a courtney love sanctioned book to try to get people to believe her story of kurts death)

[atlarano98]

@kenmabie i've read the book now im totaly mind fucked,please man tell me what the fuck really happend with kurt.or at least what you think it happened

[unholychunk]

@atlarano98 he shot himself in the face with a shotty

[MorkaGraven]

@unholychunk Shotgun Mouthwash

[unholychunk]

@MorkaGraven you ever wanna see something cool google the video of the dude who fails at shooting himself with a shot gun and hes alive in the hospital with his face lookin like the dude from predator they push his face togeather and apart like a blooming flower

[TheStarfkr]

@adamkincaid1234

LOL....I thought he spraypainted, "Homesex Rules". That's what I read anyway.

[lewe18]

@adamkincaid1234 tell us something we dont know ...dude i knew that 10 years ago

[TatianaMontenegrov]

manuel= kurt

[argurw1]

@TatianaMontenegrov you mean Manuel from Rebelde Way? xD Sorry but Kurt was way more beautifull....

[TatianaMontenegrov]

@argurw1 hahaha tha's funny, the name of a friend of mine is Manuel xD and in this picture Kurt and him are very alike, its funny that you mentioned that, didn't think that a nirvana fan can watch that kind of shows, anyways ;)

[argurw1]

@TatianaMontenegrov Are you kidding me?I was obsessed with that shit when I was like 11 years old..!!You are lucky to have a friend that looks like Kurt but you sound snobbish to me just saying :)

[ZeldaFoxEars]

Come you HAVE to tell me the songs name - its beautiful!!!! Please???

[calanero]

love the mugshot, i got one too... i think i was so hi when i got mine that i smiled & posed thumbs up for the pig photographing me.... lol i'd love to see that shit some day on youtube

[brightlights456X]

@calanero

Welcome to the club. What did you do?

[pixieandpumpkin]

this sounds really nice and relaxing

[TheGreatDane96]

@cypher988 Im not exactly sure but I think he was really drunk and on a roof and someone called the cops on him. He got charged For Trespassing and Being in possession of alcohol by consumption for a minor however he was barely a minor . He spent 8 days in jail for it.

[willem01]

sounds legit..

[willem01]

@cypher988 for prostitution...

[TheJbfan666]

my dad has a cars cd he bought in 1984 so cds were around back then

[thedayitriedtodie]

this defianatelly isn't kurt playing, lmao.

[RUNEIS4GEEKS]

Looks like Rob Thomas from Matchbox 20

[XxSicInsanityxX]

@RUNEIS4GEEKS no. thats kurt cobain.

[MMCRLA143]

damn he looks smexy

[ewoline]

It's not Kurt cobain only, it's the melvins with kurt cobain

[nirvanaman100]

iwhats the name of the song? thats important i can use this to go to sleep

[ZeldaFoxEars]

@nirvanaman100 Yeah I want to know too.

[DestructionBattery]

Theres a guy at my school who looks like Kurt but younger i got so hung up on it when i saw him

[nirvanaman100]

his mouth looks different
