Montage Of Heck: The Home Recordings (Deluxe Edition)

Hailed as one of the most innovative and intimate documentaries of all time, KURT COBAIN: MONTAGE OF HECK is the only fully authorized portrait of the famed music icon. Wildly creative and highly praised, the documentary follows Kurt from his earliest years in this visceral and detailed cinematic insight of an artist struggling to come to terms and make sense of his place in the world. The highly anticipated soundtrack album KURT COBAIN – MONTAGE OF HECK: THE HOME RECORDINGS is now released by Universal Music. KURT COBAIN – MONTAGE OF HECK: THE HOME RECORDINGS is an aural complement to the documentary in both concept and experience. Comprised from various early and raw cassette recordings made by Kurt alone, the soundtrack allows a rare, unfiltered glimpse into Cobain’s creative progression from early song snippets and short demos to musical experiments and ultimately, pieces of songs or lyrics that eventually appeared on later Nirvana albums. The title, KURT COBAIN: MONTAGE OF HECK takes its name from a musical collage that was created by Cobain with a 4-track cassette recorder in 1988. KURT COBAIN – MONTAGE OF HECK: THE HOME RECORDINGS soundtrack focuses on the music discovered on Cobain’s personal cassettes. The documentary, KURT COBAIN: MONTAGE OF HECK, is an authentic and unflinching look into Kurt’s life, art and mind through his own unique lens. Following Kurt from his earliest years in Aberdeen, WA, through the height of his fame, the film creates an immersive cinematic insight into an artist who craved the spotlight even as he rejected the trappings of fame. Brett Morgen who wrote, directed and produced the documentary began working on it in 2007 when Cobain's family approached him with the idea and offered him unrestricted access to all of Cobain's personal and family archives. The documentary features Cobain and Courtney Love's only daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, as a co-executive producer on the film and includes footage from various Nirvana performances as well as unreleased home movies, recordings, artwork, photography, journals, demos, and songbooks, and revelatory interviews from Kurt’s family and closest friends.
