>After struggling to remember Kurt Cobain’s lyrics to [Nirvana](https://consequence.net/artist/nirvana/)‘s “Heart-Shaped Box,” Courtney noted, “*‘Hey, wait, I got a new complaint Forever in debt to your priceless advice’* … that’s about Kim. That’s literally about Kim. He was so mad at her. saved you a click

Courtney and Billy have both made some music and that I really, really love, but they're god damn insufferable.

They're both precisely as talented as they think they are.

As obnoxious as Corgan is, I don’t think it’s remotely fair to him to put him and Courtney in the same boat Corgan’s songwriting run in the 90’s is actually insane when you put it in perspective and stack the resume

Billy Corgan gets an eternal pass from me for giving us Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness. As long as he doesn’t transition from douchebag to shitbag, I’ll let him talk his shit even though he is kind of dumb.

Why is this website so horrible? Ive tried twice to read this and some spinning ad takes over the screen and never lets me read the rest of the article.

I literally couldn't follow this dialogue. I don't know which one of them is more incoherent.

Holding onto 30+ year old beef like this is ridiculous. Get the f*** over it!

Eh, as far as I know Kim Gordon still thinks and says Courtney murdered Kurt, so I'm not surprised or disappointed there's some bad blood

Jesus, after all these years. These two... still such narcissists and gatekeepers themselves. Holding onto how cool they felt when they were kids telling other kids how uncool they were. I've never been big into Sonic Youth, but I know for a fact that one of the biggest gatekeepers of who and what was cool back then was Kurt Cobain. The man made bands famous just by allowing someone to release a napkin he wrote that he liked them on. That's barely an exaggeration. All of those people were so full of themselves, and have paid for it in the public eye and personal relationships for decades now. It's as funny as it is horrifying to see *these two* talk about anyone else being awful to others.

Refreshing to read someone actually call Kurt out for who he was. Total gatekeeper and a bit of an a****** about it.

LOL Kim Gordon has more talent and charisma and coolness in her pinky finger than these two insufferable turds combined.

These two are kind of really annoying and narcissistic with the habit of fibbing...... That said, Sonic Youth f****** sucks and there are many, many, many accounts of them being insufferable assholes to people without any real rhyme or reason. Then trying to gaslight people into believing it was a joke. At the end of the day though, who gives a shit about any of this.

They have three or four songs I like, but I couldn't ever get too into them.
