Product Details

Courtney Love wrote much of Celebrity Skin alongside Billy Corgan and Eric Ertmer, and the collaboration pushed the band toward a cleaner, more radio-ready sound without shedding the tension that made Live Through This so visceral. Melissa Auf der Maur's bass work and Patty Schemel's drumming anchor an album that arrived at the peak of alternative rock's mainstream moment, capturing a band at full commercial ambition.

One of "the most highly-anticipated albums of 1998" (Alternative Press), Celebrity Skin follows up Hole's platinum 1994 DGC debut, Live Through This, named Album of the Year in Rolling Stone, Spin and the Village Voice. Celebrity Skin offers all the irony and brutal honesty of previous albums, but is more diverse than its predecessors, with contemplative ballads, acoustic guitar and string arrangements alongside aggressive rock cuts. 1st single/video: "Celebrity Skin."
