Kurt Cobain's death turns 30 this Friday (5). The Nirvana frontman was the victim of a head injury caused by a shotgun.
Although the singer's body was found on April 8, 1994, the death certificate indicates that he had been dead since the 5th of that month.
In addition to being a vocalist, Cobain was also the guitarist and founder of Nirvana, a sensational band from the early 1990s and the greatest symbol of grunge, a subgenre of rock marked by dirty guitars that influenced all of pop culture. In addition to him, bassist Krist Novoselic and drummer Dave Grohl were part of the band.
