HOLE // LIVE THROUGH THIS - 1994
Med 'Live Through This', Hole's andet album, slog bandet sig for alvor fast som mere end verdens mest berømte mands kones gruppe. Ikke at den status var berettiget til at starte med, men det var nu engang en stor del af #TheDiscourse i grunge-90erne, krystalliseret i rygterne om, at det i virkeligheden var Kurt Cobain, der stod bag flere af sangene på pladen. I dag er det kun meget få, der tager den slags nonsens alvorligt, og i dag betragtes 'Live Through This' af mange som en rockklassiker i sin egen ret. Men er den nu også det? Var Hole et band, der red på the coattails of fame, eller hører de til i toppen af grungebands? Lad os finde ud af det.
Vi åbner med 1. Violet , tredjesinglen fra pladen, et vredesudbrud, der begynder i det stille, men hurtigt kulminerer i et brag af et omkvæd.

And the sky was made of amethyst
And all the stars were just like little fish
You should learn when to go
You should learn how to say no
Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever
Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever
When they get what they want, and they never want it again
And they get what they want, and they never want it again
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
And the sky was all violet
I want it again, but violent, more violent
Yeah, I'm the one with no soul
One above and one below
Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever
Might last a day, yeah
Mine is forever
When they get what they want, and they never want it again
When they get what they want, and they never want it again
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything, I dare you to
I told you from the start just how this would end
When I get what I want, then I never want it again
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
It's my lie, you're mine, you're mine
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything, I want you to
Go on, take everything, take everything
Take everything, take everything
