R.E.M’s Michael Stipe has revealed that he finds it hard to listen to Nirvana following the death of their frontman Kurt Cobain.
Speaking to Death + Taxes Magazine, Stipe said that the singer’s death in 1994 came at a time when Cobain was on the cusp of greatness.
“He had reached a point where he was about to push through to something that was so phenomenal and so beautiful,” Stipe said.
“It was all written, it was all right there and it was so obvious where he was going, and then he didn’t make it.”
“I still have trouble—I can’t listen to an entire Nirvana record.”
Cobain died at his home in Seattle from a single self-inflicted shotgun wound to the head.
