Former Hole guitarist Eric Erlandson has claimed that Kurt Cobain recorded an entire album's worth of material prior to his death. He said the songs would have formed a masterpiece, but no one else has heard them.
Speaking with Fuse, Erlandson said: "It would have been his 'White Album'. That's really what he was going towards, a solo album but working with different people."
"I got to see him play it in front of me. That's why I was really sad when he died. He was cut short. Who knows where his music would have gone?"
While the content is understood to comprise brand new material, it was revealed that there was one cover version performed by Cobain. "There is one cover. I won't say what it is. I don't own the stuff. I just hope that one day it will be released for fans. It's just so heartbraking. It's not surprising. It's a very sweet, just touching song."
