Me too, I'm having theories on it being a 94 demo for his new white album with Stype from R.E.M, along with Do Re Mi and such, or it's apart of an early stage of Sappy

The 2nd Unknown Snippet seems to be listed in some places as "Oh The Guilt", and the 3rd Unknown seems to be a really early demo from "You Know You're Right"
0:51 is AMAZING Nothing gives this weird sense of nostalgia like Nirvana (especially opening of Come As You Are) Wish they made this into a full blown song
In an interview with Rolling Stone magazine Cobain mentioned that he himself did not think he had any material left worthy of a release. We might disagree, but I can see where he is coming from. Almost all of the best songs (and covers) they had in their repertoire since the Bleach/pre-Nevermind days were eventually released on Incesticide, In Utero and Unplugged. A good portion of In Utero including You know you're right was written during soundchecks while on tour. The band clearly burned out and would have needed a longer creative break to come up with new material. I would guess that having burned through everything you had to offer and having to come up with new and untested material might be a scary feeling.
Unknown 4 is called come on death (not to be confused with help me I'm hungry since "come on death" is a bootleg name for it). The movie Montage of Heck confirms this songs title in the credits
By the way, there is another early version of "Help Me, I'm Hungry" in Kurt's montage of heck, but I don't remember at what minute Okay! I just checked, the video is the same demo that I wrote about. I remember her differently haha
Why people is still so fixated into labeling 0:15 as a Kurt demo when has been proven to be fake since it was uploaded as a hoax by a member of livenirvana forums?
Hahaha I remember when "Halloween 1990" was mislabled as Kurt jamming on "All Along the Watchtower." Some of us knew it obviously was not that song and was something different, probably an original. Both camps just knew it as the "short clip from Live! Tonight! Sold Out!" way back when. AMA about bootleg trading in 1996. :D
Just curious - out of the songs released on Sliver and WTLO, which of them were known to exist prior to release? I know Token Eastern Song was bootlegged but that’s it
@@josephgreble5 We had known about most of them. Even the ones we knew about though, some of them specifically we hadn't heard yet. I know the studio versions of Token Eastern Song and Verse Chorus Verse were unheard, but we had copies of live versions of VCV (which we called "In his Hands" or "In His Room) and TES ("Born in a Junkyard" as it was known for along time even though that's not the an accurate chorus). There were some surprises, like we had no clue Mrs. Buttersworth (Should be called Uknown #2) existed. It had an alternate version of Clean Up or maybe that was Montage of Heck. But we had Clean Up Before She comes circulating on bootlegs in the 90s. But we hadn't heard that alternate version. Drain You with Crover on drums wasn't circulating yet, maybe? Overall I'd say the bootleg community had or was at least aware of most of the recordings on WTLO, but there were still some pleasant surprises. I thought it was a pretty good release, though I wish they'd sourced for quality a little better, some stuff it was like "oh we have a third generation recording of this, that's good enough" when maybe they could have found something closer to the source. But hey, we got Do Re Mi. That was enough to warrant the purchase at the time. Here is a list of songs from the time period that someone had written down. This isn't an exhaustive or even totally accurate list of Nirvana songs, but you'll recognize a lot of the names. I believe this is probably 1997/1998 vintage: www.angelfire.com/nc/kurtcobaintribute/AllNirvanaSongs.html
@@devonjones5200 i just rewatched the credits, I didn't see it anywhere, are there multiple versions of the film or something? i've never heard of this
Also I'm 100% sure that Unknown #4 IS NOT Kurt, the quality of the recording is too polished and features multiple and different effects over the music, something that none of his other home recordings ever had and not to mention that doesn't sound like a chord progression Kurt would have used. Never have a I heard Kurt playing something that isn't regular power chords or (very rarely but still) 7th chords.
Unknown #4 was played in the film Montage of Heck. That's where the effects come from. It's 100% him. Your other comment about the early version of Aneurysm is correct though.
Kurt did in fact use overlapping affects and such in his recordings, beginning in Fecal Matter and Going on as far as Demos like Don't Want It All and Escalator to Hell
Uuuh, i dont think so. We have a few recordings in Montage of Heck with just some crazy noise, that tell us Cobain can make these sounds at this time. And second one, if you dont hear what he use "More than just Power Chords" just lesten the Bleach album.
disclaimer: early version of Aneurysm (00:15) is likely a fake. It fooled me when I was making this video, but the rest are verified as real
Why its fake? Sounds the way too simmilar like Kurt
@@RegisVA I think it is kurt as well
I feel like that last one had some real potential
it’s really cool though, you can tell he had natural distortion to his voice and was not afraid to use it
It’s Anyuresm
2:05
Unknown 4 will always be my favorite Kurt home demo. There's something about that guitar riff that is so freakishly chilling about it to me.
It sounds like the early version of sappy
That combined with burn the rain
Me too, I'm having theories on it being a 94 demo for his new white album with Stype from R.E.M, along with Do Re Mi and such, or it's apart of an early stage of Sappy
It's throwaway for Kurt

This guy should start a band or something
If he just cleans up his sound he might be famous one day
You can here the beginnings of Kurt's iconic scratchy voice and screams at just 2 years old.
that halloween 1990 thing he plays at Krists house has fascinated me since I first saw Live Tonight Sold Out
THE LAST ONE IS SO CUTEE
Kurt Cobaby
"and i love joan baez, and Bob Dylan too"
i heard joe biden
The high pitched screaming in the background of the Halloween snippet is so funny
03:30 ah yes the best kurt cobain demo
Fr bro had pipes back then 💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Even as a baby Kurt was screaming out his feelings lol
since he was a baby he had the rasp in his voice lol
1:43 sounds like You Know You're Right
@@mrturtle3083 you know.? You’re right!!
The 2nd Unknown Snippet seems to be listed in some places as "Oh The Guilt", and the 3rd Unknown seems to be a really early demo from "You Know You're Right"
Kirst and Dave js normally talking and then Kurt in the back playing guitar and screaming is so funny to me for some reason lol
holy shit unknown 4 is terrifying
0:51 is AMAZING
Nothing gives this weird sense of nostalgia like Nirvana (especially opening of Come As You Are)
Wish they made this into a full blown song
Never heard a couple of these
gone to soon 😭, he had so many amazing unreleased songs, we'll never hear them 😢

I remember finding a version of unknown 4 with out the bad quality at the ending here on TH-cam a year or two ago i cant find it anywhere now
3:30 Kurt at his peak
Unknown 4 is so cool
By the way, there is another early version of "Help Me, I'm Hungry" in Kurt's montage of heck, but I don't remember at what minute

Wth, its fake??
1969 home recording.. sounds like he later used the same vocal bit on the home recording of very ape from 'with the lights out'

My favorite is unknown 4 !;
Halloween 1990 snippet is Little Birdy - Ween. Maybe a mislabel as I thought it was '92? Anyway love the channel dude
Unknown 4 is called come on death
that's a fan made title that also applies to a different song
@@rarestnirvana no it's the official title. That song is in montage of heck movie and in the credits it's credited as come on death
@@devonjones5200 i just rewatched the credits, I didn't see it anywhere, are there multiple versions of the film or something? i've never heard of this
@@devonjones5200 What a way to spread misinformation
unknown 4 aka come on death is often being called Help me I'm hungry
No it isn’t
2 different songs.
Come on Death is a fan title, help me I'm hungry is an entirely different song, this demo is commonly titled Unknown #6 or here Unknown #4
LLJW ❤
2:05 Hell Interface vibes!
OMG 9 unreleased songs. Almost a full album ! 😂
where did you get unknown 1????
it's on youtube
oh
Kurt and cortney 1999 film
Also I'm 100% sure that Unknown #4 IS NOT Kurt, the quality of the recording is too polished and features multiple and different effects over the music, something that none of his other home recordings ever had and not to mention that doesn't sound like a chord progression Kurt would have used.

And second one, if you dont hear what he use "More than just Power Chords" just lesten the Bleach album.
I remember emailing unsolved mysteries to see what that song was. Like 1996. And where they got it
You need to do some research
Unknown snippet #1 sounds like Hole's song Miss world C K is a shameless thieve.
Hey Kurt, why always this fuckin sadness? Some reggae would have been great man :\
