IS IT FECAL MATTER, ORGANIZED CONFUSION OR SOMETHING ELSE???
Ok, everyone (im sure) by now, has the tape that is circulating under the name Fecal Matter. Recently people have been talking
about how it could more likely be a recording Kurt did when he was really young called Organized Confusion. On the other hand
some people are just calling it a fake and saying that it doesn’t sound anything like Kurt, and that the playing style is too
bad to be Kurt’s. Well, I think that it is Kurt on the tape. Why? Because of the distinct vocal styling’s of the screams.
This is just my opinion, so it doesn’t really mean much. It could still be a clever fake, but until someone comes forward and
admits to making it themselves, I will believe it’s him. Let’s move past the disscussion of wether or not it’s Kurt, because
we wont resolve anything. If you don’t believe that it’s Kurt’s voice on the recording then you can go to another section on
this website.
We only have a few reliable sources that can help us to determine what the recording is. In this section I will refer to TWO of
them: 1) A article from Goldmine magazine that talks about Nirvana’s recording history 2) Come as you are.
Let’s Look at what Come as you are says about Fecal Matter:
“That winter, Kurt got together with Dale Crover on Bass and Greg Hokanson on drums and began rehearsing some of his material......
After a while, they ditched Hokanson..... The two (Cobain and Crover) began rehearsing intensivly in preparation for recoring a demo
tape......”
