Live Through This

Hole

Released

1994

As its title suggests, Hole’s second album Live Through This — the band’s tour de force — is a statement about survival. Frontwoman Courtney Love’s scintillating wordplay reverberates throughout twelve ripping songs that unpack objectification, power, learning to say no, and, as she sang in the incandescent “Doll Parts,” yearning to “be the girl with the most cake.”
