Disgust

The cover art was painted by Cobain, who is credited as Kurdt Kobain in the liner notes.

    Cobain’s feminism is stated in his intolerance for rape against women.  Incesticide, Nirvana’s first compilation album (the only one done while Cobain was still alive) came out in America on December 15, 1992.  The liner notes have become pretty well known for what Cobain wrote on sexism and homophobia. At the end, Cobain writes:

    At this point I have a request for our fans.  If any of you in any way hate homosexuals, people of different color, or women, please do this one favor for us - leave us the fuck alone!  Don't come to our shows and don't buy our records.

    Last year, a girl was raped by two wastes of sperm and eggs while they sang the lyrics to our song "Polly."  I have a hard time carrying on knowing there are plankton like that in our audience.  Sorry to be so anally P.C. but that's the way I feel.

    Love,
    Kurt (the blonde one)

Cobain wasn’t kidding; if his intolerance of rape, sexism, and homophobia lost him fans, it was for the better.  He would rather lose his fame and reputation as an artist than have fans who oppressed people for their gender, sex, or sexuality.  Cobain’s views that rapists are pathetic and worthless is blaring in his use of the word “plankton”  and “...wastes of sperm and eggs”. That they are “wastes” implies that their heinous behavior has taken away their humanness.  This liner note defined for fans that Cobain wasn’t half hearted about being an advocate for women’s struggle.
