Kurt Cobain: Montage of Heck, the documentary about the Nirvana singer, aired on HBO on May 4. For the upcoming theatrical release, director Brett Morgen added an unreleased Cobain song to the soundtrack, as Billboard reports. The unheard, untitled song features Cobain singing in a falsetto, and was reportedly recorded in 1991.
Morgen said the new song was inserted without changing the documentary, which was "built as a theatrical experience." According to him, it'll be released in the top "50 or 100 markets" on August 7.
Previously, Morgen said an album of Cobain's home recordings would be released this summer. He said that in the process of making the documentary, he found 107 cassettes featuring 200 hours of "never-before-heard or rarely heard music." He also said the tapes contain jam sessions with Courtney Love, jam sessions with friends and Nirvana, demo tapes, demo tapes with his punk band Fecal Matter, serious and un-serious spoken word material, covers of the Beatles, sound effects, sound design, and more.
