Premiere: Courtney Love - Miss Narcissist

A lot has been said about Courtney Love over the decades but let's never forget she has a solid body of work in music. Plus that no fucks given attitude that is legendary by now. Miss Narcissist is a brand new single released as a stand alone vinyl 7" with another new song, Radio Killer, on the flip side. She will release it via indie label Ghost Ramp and since she's currently on tour with Lana Del Rey - could this be a lead up to a whole new solo album era? Say it is! We love how tight and funky this is despite the hard edges and angst. It brings both her Hole days and solo stuff to a whole new generation of rock kids hopefully. Listen below! Thoughts?

Hole - Letter To God

Courtney Love wanted Beautiful but Linda Perry gave it to Xtina. Instead she got this - Letter To God. It's taken years, but it got released finally. We can't stop listening.

Courtney Love's blog

We're friends with Courtney Love on MySpace and read her blog from time to time. Or, that should be, try to read her blog from time to time. We usually feel a bit sea sick after a while. See if you can make it all the way down.

id take my shit if i had a sewing machine id make wristies out of all sorts of crap and id call fred frankel make a 500 dollar investment in the best cheapest appliques, but a skin of leather and start searching for metallic laces and make some amazing wrist kook and head cook youll need feathers for that but they're so cheap and you just dye them , mix jacqurd brand chartreuse with olive and a bit of kelly and a bit of silver and you've got yourself one ugly lovely moss,. windrose@etsy carries it, id get a tube of e 600 and id learn to do a few cocardes myself as nicholas kniel has the ribbons of my obsession but his cocardes are spenndy. his ribbons are lovely , id also if i was say an indie designer get my ass up on etsy now, im the one buying Boudoir for crazy money until she put up her corset for that much, i love dawn and im sure its original but i dig about a big i have a large long ribbon drawer set with hat boxes laveled with thanks MARTHA labels. and i save every scrap of soltiss velvet and lace , and i buy little bit so stuff off ebay got of irefly vinatge that guy has 45,000 square feet of the best yardage and shit and if your in la and love vontage im not talking 50s im talking estates of amazing women from 100 /200 years ago "TIMELESS VIXEN" is who you want shes soooo much cheaper than the way we wore or gilyester, fuck that, shes one tenth the price and shes no bargain basement your buying couture POIRET for 1/10th of online, but i want o adventire intot he 45,000 square feet, so bad im just afraid id never come out, so i gathered all the silver bits in the house and a 32 inch cream soltiss lace and basing my silver of f dawns i had my seamstress - cheaper than a lawyer or a car or a trip to barneys by a million miles 20 bucks an hour ic an make sacrifices for that and have3 been upcyclongliek crazy these are my kook clothes and i love them all the notions and cocardes and ribbons finally have a home, its hard to pour a cream white aesthetic era wedding dress into a boiling cauldron of crimson but its so cool once you've done it, its hard to cut up a fucked up old piano shawl, and make the flowers in a silver threaded blanket stitch, to the the left of you you'll see a shot of my kook when i was on drugs a bustle with a birdcage hey at least i have an imagination ! but they are on trend how much do i want to smash the fash polices head in, i have a guilty liking for the brit if he wasn't so samey, everyone in randolph duke vomit "ON TREND" fuck you, awards ceremonies were made to draw spirals on your hands and wear something either kook or couture,m which is just really expensive kook, anyway fred frankel has the coolest coolest old jet and buttons and because they aren't swarovski they are amazing use the e600 sparingly or you'll end up ll stiffed out, just get a few things. but if you can make a GARTER you can make allot, and m and j tims and dharma for insanely cheap cos its not dyed charmuese silk tulle mousseline, they're incredible, nothing beats tehbucol metallic velvet which is insane and you'll be seeing me kook that alot i don't want a ton of dressing cases on tour i want three one for all my Illamasqua i am soooo obsessed i tried it out the other night, a parrot green eye with ayellow inside and then a huge sweep of red cherry burgundy falsies, as im bad at false lashes, and teh ilamasqua ones are too hard for me yet the skin alone was worth it, oh my GOD< it made bythsi old ancient German company Krylon that has always had a palette remember when stipe did hi batman blue mask? its from the krylon kit sort of stage makeup, there's only one rchp i thinki ts called that alleges it wont come off from sweat we shall see, in any case, my ilamaqua my crests my cool sisters bouillons, and their cocardes, i ordered some amazing customs , if you see my collage and can feel my vibe this was done right as i was getting receiving the art, and then i saw a dead bird on the beach but facing away it looked exactly like a phoenix so new birth from the ashes, it was a potent symbol in front of tom hanks house, all i know is if you believe in astrology this should put you off , me and tom hanks have the exact same CHART not birthday CHART Libra rising in 27 Descant Moon in Cancer, Venus in Gemini Mars in Leop etc, does that mean astrology is nonsense, i think it might since the other one who's only onepoint off is Harrison Ford, hes 26 Libra rising, all the rest the same can anyone see the similarities between me and Mr hanks and Mr ford? ford yes, tom sort of re his childhood i guess, but its private stuff, anyway id put those lovely appliques on your wrist and fond your niche on etsy and then sell off your cool vintage shit too, its more spendy pon etsy and can be crap but can also be cooler than ebay like my cake plate or my bread box. cheaper on ebay but the vintage stuff on etsy is for some reason better cept the clothes, clothes on ebay you know your getting crap, antique dress posh girl vintage oooh there's t2 little black dresses i have to have and a few of their sites, also anyone Japanese know who played "NANA" in ai Kawazawas "NANA" as adapted to a Japanese Teen Rock movie i do love my AI id love to ge3t in touch with her, anyway i hear shes the one to give a song to, and im obsessed with a Japanese female artist crossing over here it'd be so cool as opposed to being im sorry i feel its somewhat racist to have blonde Gaijin pop singer with all Asian backup dancers, maybe that's the Japanese soul in me, i dunno i am so respectful of them as a country and a people, also Sheena Rengo but is she still that crazed girl in the nurse uniform?
im torn between nana Kitada and Nana i forget her last name ho played nana so well, im waiting on my copy from my Hysteric Glamor friends but the you tube i saw was great)

anyway heres the deal the dress i got was really really urban but for some reason it worksm i canget whatever i want from Nike but i want some "Kicks" cool ones, the great limited edition kook kicks, i don't collect kicks much i have in fact a pair pf new balance mom shoes i run in, as noke does fancy crap top my feet that inihbit mny running, you urban groovesters out there what are the hardest to find coolest one arth "KICKS:" that don't look stupid this dress would look retarded in killer six inch heels, Laboutins or anything,
oooh ill be in L:London in a week or so im so excited, i threw down about something to do with going to NYC i had to out of loyalty i am not a dishonorable person and i wont do dishonorably things the person that's meant for knows what i am saying, so what are the cool kicks,

oh fresh lilac sullen moors
cannot hide the stolid stench of death
Hindly waits and Hindley says Hindley waits, Hindely waits and says
oh wahstever he has done i have done
Oh Manchester so much to answer for
OH MANCHESTER SO MUCH TO ANSWER FOR><

find me find me find me and nothing more
we are on the sullen misty more
we may be dead and we may be gone but we will be
we will be
we will be right by your side
until the day you do
you could say were a team,
you might sleep
you might sleep
you might sleep
BUT YOU WILL NEVER DREAM
lesley anne and your pretty white beads oh john you'll never be a man and you'll never see your home again,
edward look at those alluring lights
tonight will be your very last night
a woman said i know my son is dead
ill never rest my hands on his sacred head
OH MANCHESTER SO MUCH TO ANSWER FOR
OH MANCHESTER SO MUCH TO ANSWER FOR
OH MANSCHESTER SO MUCH TO ANSWER FOR
