On the 19th anniversary of Kurt Cobain's death, previously unpublished photos of the scene of his suicide have been released.

On April 5, 1994, the Nirvana frontman was found dead in the greenhouse at his Lake Washington home in Seattle, Washington. On Friday, editors at the Seattle Post-Intelligencer marked his untimely passing by releasing previously unseen images of his house.

The newspaper includes the caption: "A few (images) were published after Cobain's death in 1994. But most of them have sat in the same negative sleeves they were placed in the day they were taken."

Paul McCartney is to fill in for Kurt Cobain as the surviving members of Nirvana reunite at the Superstorm Sandy benefit in New York on Wednesday.

Grunge stars Dave Grohl and bassist Krist Novoselic have reportedly enlisted the Beatle to play onstage with them at the Madison Square Garden charity performance.

The Fab Four legend reveals Grohl invited him to "jam with some mates," but admits he had no idea he was filling in for tragic rocker Cobain, who committed suicide in 1994.

Paul tells Britain's The Sun, "I didn't really know who they were. They are saying how good it is to be bac...

Courtney Love has dismissed reports she is writing a musical based on her late husband Kurt Cobain's rise to fame.

Britney Spears' former manager Sam Lutfi claimed last month that he was collaborating with the former Hole star on a potential stage show about the grunge star's life, his work with Nirvana, and their marriage.

Lutfi alleged the pair was hoping to take the production to Broadway or convince Hollywood bosses to turn it into a movie - but Love has shot down his claims.

She tells Britain's Observer newspaper, "There will be no musical. Sometimes it's best just to leave thing...

It seems that Courtney Love doesn't want anyone to sing about her vagina, including Lana Del Rey.

Del Rey sang a cover of Nirvana's "Heart Shaped Box," which apparently is all about Love's lady parts.

Love tweeted, "You do know the song is about my Vagina right...? On top of which some of the lyrics about my vagina I contributed. So umm next time you sing it, think about my vagina will you?"

The question is, did Del Rey know what the song is about? And if so, she apparently didn't care.

Courtney Love has lost control of her late husband Kurt Cobain's publicity rights to the couple's only child.

According to sealed documents obtained by The Fix.com, Frances Bean Cobain has taken over the management of the Nirvana frontman's name, likeness and image.

The files allegedly show that Love, who been estranged from her daughter since 2009, agreed to step down as acting manager of End of Music LLC - the company in charge of handling the money generated from the late rocker's image - in 2010.

The move came after Love was loaned $2.75 million from her daughter's trust fund.

Hole rocker Eric Erlandson has played down reports his pal Kurt Cobain recorded an album of unheard songs before he died.

Fans of the late Nirvana frontman were sent into a frenzy last month when Erlandson apparently suggested Cobain had laid down demo tracks for an album's worth of new material before his death in 1994.

But now the guitarist has spoken out to clarify his comments, insisting the Smells Like Teen Spirit star was merely working on "ideas" and had only recorded snippets of songs on primitive equipment in his bedroom.

Erlandson tells NME, "I never used the word demo and I...

Courtney Love has stepped up her war of words with Dave Grohl by accusing the rocker of destroying Kurt Cobain's memory by allowing a Nirvana song to be used in The Muppets movie.

The Foo Fighters frontman, who played in Nirvana with Love's late husband Cobain, was forced to defend himself this week after the Hole star claimed he had "hit on" her teenage daughter Frances Bean Cobain.

Grohl vehemently denied the allegations, branding Love's comments "another hateful Twitter rant," and the blonde star has now hit back by accusing her adversary of staining Cobain's legacy by letting Smells...

Guitar amp pioneer Jim Marshall has passed away at the age of 88.

The music icon, nicknamed the Father of Loud, is recognized as one of the key pioneers in amplification after he began building amps in the 1960s and founded Marshall Amplification 50 years ago.

His equipment has been used by rock's most iconic stars, including Jimi Hendrix, Joe Perry, Kurt Cobain and Slash.

News of his death was posted on his company's website on Thursday.

Jack Black has come to the defense of The Muppets after Courtney Love reportedly accused the popular puppets of destroying Kurt Cobain's legacy by covering a Nirvana song in the latest movie.

The Hole star was said to be fuming to discover Smells Like Teen Spirit was used in The Muppets film in a scene featuring Black, and is reported to have told pals the cover was "raping" her late husband's work.

However, Black is adamant no offense was intended as he is a big fan of the Nirvana frontman.

He tells E! Online, "I beg to differ... That's absurd, absurd, absurd... I personally hold no ...

Courtney Love is planning to sue whoever is responsible for leaking supposedly confidential court papers in which daughter Frances Bean Cobain described her as a pet-killing, pyromaniac drug addict. Does she have a case?

It's got to hurt when your own daughter goes to court to permanently remove you from her life. For Courtney Love, the sting is twice as strong now that the deposition given by Frances Bean Cobain to secure a restraining order against her mom has been made public. In fact, Love is so ticked that she plans to find out who is responsible for the leak and take 'em to court.

Kurt Cobain's daughter Frances Bean accused her mother Courtney Love of killing two of her childhood pets as part of a restraining order she sought against the Hole star in 2009.

The newly-published details from the then-17 year old's deposition allege a cat died after it became entangled in fabric and papers left lying around by Love. Frances Bean also claims a dog passed away after ingesting her mother's prescription medication.

The deposition has been made public in new book, Courtney Comes Clean.

Author Maer Roshan was given copies of the sealed deposition papers that were drafted wh...

Courtney Love stormed off stage during Hole's appearance at Brazil's SWU festival on Sunday after an audience member held up a picture of her late husband Kurt Cobain.

The outspoken rocker halted her set at the Sao Paulo event to call out a concert-goer in the crowd brandishing a photo of the Nirvana frontman, who took his own life in 1994.

She shouted, "I don't need to see a picture of Kurt, a**hole, and I'm going to have you f**king removed if you keep holding that up. I'm not Kurt, I have to live with his f**king s**t and his ghost and his kid every day. Throwing that up is stupid an...

Kurt Cobain's little girl Frances Bean is engaged.

The 19-year-old model, who is estranged from mom Courtney Love, has changed her Facebook.com status to 'engaged' after accepting rocker Isaiah Silva's proposal.

A source tells In Touch magazine, "They have moved in together."

Confirming the happy news on Facebook.com, Cobain writes, "Getting to spend the rest of my life loving my best friend makes me the luckiest woman in the world."

Silva, a member of the group Rambles, has been dating the rock offspring for over a year.

Rocker Courtney Love dreams of marrying into British aristocracy because she's tired of romancing men whose bank accounts are no match for hers.

She tells Vanity Fair magazine, "I'm sick of dating people who are poorer than me. It would be really nice if someone I dated had really great lawyers..."

Love has even been reading up on proper royal protocol and likes to keep books by specialist publisher Debret...

Kurt Cobain's daughter Frances Bean, 19, recently purchased a Hollywood Hills home for $1.82 million using her multi-million dollar trust fund savings. Good for her! She deserves to benefit from her father's estate.

We're sure there's a lot more money in the pot. Her mother Courtney Love was offered a staggering $162 million for her majority stake in Nirvana's back catalog back in May 2010. In 2006, the Hole rocker sold off 25 percent of the "End of Music" catalog, earning $50 million from the deal.

The untitled tome will be written with author Anthony Bozza.

Publishers expect the tell-all to be a big hit and William M...

The album "Nevermind" was never meant to change the world, but you can never predict when the zeitgeist will hit, and Nirvana's second album turned out to be the place where alternative rock crashed into the mainstream.

This wasn't entirely an accident, either, since Nirvana did sign with a major label, and they did release a record with a shiny surface, no matter how humongous the guitars sounded. And, yes, "Nevermind" is probably a little shinier than it should be, positively glistening with echo and fuzzbox distortion, especially when compared with the black-and-white murk of "Ble...

Late Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain dreamed of opening his own petting zoo, according to a new book about the history of grunge.

Journalist Mark Yarm gathered anecdotes about Nirvana, Pearl Jam and Mudhoney, among others, for his tome "Everybody Loves Our Town: An Oral History of Grunge" - and one fact from Cobain's record label boss Bruce Pavitt really stands out.

The Sub Pop Records co-founder tells Yarm, "He (Cobain) was a sensitive guy who really liked kids and animals. I remember the first time I visited his apartment, he had, like, three different cages of gerbils. I got the impressio...

City officials in Kurt Cobain's hometown have rejected a motion to have a bridge named in his honor amid fears the tribute will memorialize the tragic rocker's drug use.

Fans of the Nirvana frontman recently petitioned councilors in Aberdeen, Washington to see if they would favor the renaming of Young Street Bridge over the Wishkah River and a nearby pocket park to Cobain Bridge and Cobain Landing.

But on Wednesday, City Council members officially voted against the bridge proposal because many believed the act would send out the wrong message and invite negative comments about Aberdeen.

The cover art for Nirvana's classic 1991 album Nevermind has been banned from Facebook.com - the photo of a naked baby has been labelled as graphic content.

The picture of a swimming baby chasing a dollar bill underwater has become iconic, but the artwork was removed from the group's official fan page shortly after music bosses posted the image online to commemorate the record's 20th anniversary.

Executives at the social networking site claim the photo violates its terms of use clause.

The notice reads, "Facebook does not allow photos that attack an individual or group, or that contain n...

The 'Forever 27 Club' has become more than a legend since the dawn of music recording. As it turns out, some of music's most influential artists who were taken from us much too soon all parted with the living at age 27. Is it a coincidence or a curse?

The latest 27-year-old to "join" this exclusive club is Amy Winehouse, who died Saturday at her London home. No one knows why or how yet, but initial speculation - most likely based on her past - is that drugs and/or alcohol were somehow involved.

Well, they played a big part in the deaths of these other stars who preceded her "in the club."...

Officials in Kurt Cobain's hometown are considering a request from fans to rename a bridge and park in the tragic Nirvana star's honor.

Residents will get the chance to offer their thoughts on the proposal at an Aberdeen City Council meeting scheduled for July 27.

Cobain committed suicide in April, 1994.

With a black shroud draped over her head, Gaga wheeled herself onstage halfway through her hour-long set, which included her hits Born This Way, Poker Face and Just Dance.

The singer later thanked her fans for their support before hinting at an imminent...

Courtney Love is always candid about her sex life.

She explained, "I'm a very sexual person, but in general, I think sex is kind of overrated. Most of the guys I sleep with have tended to be actors and musicians and directors. And they tend to be lousy lays."

Earlier this month Courtney was linked to an actor who once played a character based on her late husband Kurt Cobain. The Hole rocker, who was widowed when Cobain died in 1994, is rumored to be dating Michael Pitt, 30, after pictures of the pair together emerged online.

Courtney Love has been linked to an actor who once played a character based on her late husband Kurt Cobain.

The Hole rocker, who was widowed when Cobain died in 1994, is rumored to be dating Michael Pitt, 30, after pictures of the pair together emerged online. The snaps, which appear to have been taken by the stars themselves, show them staring into each other's eyes, while Love, 46, is seen affectionately ruffling Pitt's hair and stroking his face.

Pitt played a character based on the late Nirvana frontman in Gus Van Sant's 2005 movie "Last Days", a fictionalized account of Cobain's fin...

Former Nirvana bandmates Dave Grohl and Krist Novoselic relived their rock heyday during a recent studio session when they performed Smells Like Teen Spirit for the first time in 18 years.

Foo Fighters frontman Grohl recruited his old pal to record a new song for his group's latest album, Wasting Light, in December.

30 Seconds To Mars frontman Jared Leto has filmed an eerie tribute to his musical hero Kurt Cobain to mark the 17th anniversary of the late Nirvana star's death.

The rocker/actor has posted a video online of him performing Nirvana's "Pennyroyal Tea" and "Rape Me," dressed like Cobain.

Leto has also posted a tribute on his blog, explaining the bizarre video.

He writes, "I heard today (April 5) was the day Kurt passed away 17 years ago. Can't believe it's been that long. So grateful for his contribution and inspiration. Not sure I'd be doing this if it weren't for him.

Fans of Nirvana star Kurt Cobain gathered at one of the rocker's famous sanctuary spots on Tuesday for the unveiling of a guitar memorial to mark the 17th anniversary of his death.

Cobain, who committed suicide in 1994, was honored with a 13-foot statue of a guitar, created by artist Lora Malakoff, in an Aberdeen, Washington park.

Malakoff tells TMZ.com the site of the statue is important - the guitar will rest near the infamous Young Street Bridge, which the musician often sought refuge under to write lyrics.

Courtney Love considered snorting her late husband Kurt Cobain's ashes in the weeks following the Nirvana star's suicide, according to the author of a new book.

Music journalist Neil Strauss alleges he was with the Hole singer in Los Angeles when she 'introduced' him to the cremated ashes of the rock icon.

And, in his just-released collection of rock interviews, the writer claims Love suggested snorting the remains up her nose.

Strauss insists the rocker was "serious when she made the suggestion."

According to his new book, Love said, "Too bad you don't do coke. Otherwise I'd suggest ta...
