I was never too wowed by her previous work, but the new album, Nobody's Daughter, sounds real good to me.

I liked the first album...can't remember the name..
Don't ask me about her...
heard a track...despite my feelings about her. i actually liked it. i wonder who wrote all the songs for her?
Back when Kurt Cobain was still alive, I bought Hole's "Live Through This", and I still think: The best album Nirvana never made. I don't care about Courtney Love, and I don't know any other albums by Hole, but this one album is great.

Yeah, Cyco, that's my story too, pretty much. I liked her in The People vs. Larry Flint. Other than the highlights of the Kurt days, that's about all I know about her. Except that she's, shall we say, emotionally unstable and given to outbursts and does (did?) very bad drugs.

But yeah, the album is gorgeous, brutal, even heartrending. Maybe a little too lushly produced, but hey. It's convincing, sounds like the real thing to me. Art, not image, I guess I mean.

That's what some of the reviewers are implying. Not seriously, I don't think.
True, she was pretty good in Larry Flint. So, well, I kind of respect her. Ah, and: I really LOVE the Young Marble Giants, but I have to admit, Hole's version of "Credit in the straight world" is even better than the original.

I loved so much "Live Through This", second album, I think... when I was a teenager I had true veneration to her, now I don't like her anymore
