Waiting for the release date of the official Kurt Cobain documentary Montage of Heck is like waiting for a Soundwave lineup, we’re drip-fed tiny bits of excitement, and although it’s painful, each droplet sends us into overdrive, so here’s another Cobain clip to get you all steamy.
Premiered on The New York Times, the new one-minute snippet to surface from the Brett Morgen and Frances Bean Cobain creation shows a very early days Nirvana perform at a house party, with a whopping two people present.

The clip begins with a mysterious voice explaining the band’s tiny turn-out, “if we played together in the house for a couple of hours and if two people stopped by, we considered that a gig, locals hated our guts and thought it was terrible music.”
From there, the clip cuts to Cobain’s close pal and bassist, Krist Novoselic, who speaks of the first time he met Cobain, “he was working at the time as a janitor, .but he’d always have to do some kind of art, usually defacing something. He never had, like, idle hands.”
Montage of Heck hits Aussie cinemas Thursday 7 May, and before this important date, check out one of the world’s biggest bands performing to just a couple of sitting punters:
