Martin Douglas dives into The Flowers of Romance by Public Image Ltd. After he left the Sex Pistols in 1978, John Lydon created Public Image Ltd. under the influence of dub, resulting in experimental music that was just about as accessible to mainstream audiences as Kurt Cobain’s Montage of Heck recordings (which is to say, not very accessible at all).

More From The Cobain 50

Martin Douglas dives into Paganicons by Saccharine Trust, written in Kurt’s list as “1st EP.”

Roddy Nikpour dives into The Record by Fear. Fear sings from a grotesque vantage point to call out injustice through “punk irony.” 

Dusty Henry dives into Tales of Terror by Tales of Terror. Their run was short, but their influence has kept their music alive for generations.
