Brett Morgen’s documentary on Nirvana’s frontman, Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck, takes its name from what might just be the weirdest mixtape ever. The half-hour audio collage, which a 20-year-old Cobain made in the late 1980s, is a hodgepodge of classic songs, rare novelty records, TV audio, nature sounds, scraps of demo material, and a few disgusting sound effects\u2014it’s Cobain’s talent at its most cacophonous. <\/p>\n
