Thought: Was Kurt Cobain good to work with in the studio? You may be surprised of this answer or not…

In celebration of Nirvana’s iconic album, “Nevermind” being re-released as a 20th Anniversary deluxe edition, Butch describes Kurt’s work ethic in the studio while making the album. What a lot of people may wonder, was Kurt good to work with in the studio? Butch Vig, the band’s producer, said Kurt was very difficult to work with. Butch says Kurt was a pain in the ass and had mood swings.

Read more on the story, here.

Kurt may have been a pain in the ass, but that’s what you must do if you want your songs the way you want them to be. Kurt had a vision of what his songs would wanted to sound like in his head and he was just trying to put it out on recording. So to do that, he must harass and annoy Butch to get the sound that he wanted. It’s about the artistic direction, the music.

Actually, Kurt was doing nothing wrong, it’s Butch that’s actually being the pain in the ass. Butch should have done what Kurt wanted.

Shirley Manson the former Garbage singer was the first to bring up the news that Green Day is in the studio working on a new album with Nirvana producer, Butch Vig.

Turns out that the news is true, after Green Day posted a video in their official youtube account with the band recording in the studio with Butch Vig in the studio with the band.

The band is in the studio recording their follow up from 2004’s “American Idiot” which an excellent album by the way, their best record they’ve ever done in my opinion.
