Live Through This found Hole at the precipice of great change, and it pushed the band towards making one of the Nineties most enduring alt-rock efforts. Peeling back the noisiest elements of debut album Pretty on the Inside, songwriters Courtney Love and Eric Erlandson revealed that they could harness intense melody without sacrificing any punk-style ferocity. At its softest, Doll Parts paired aching acoustic strums with exposed-nerve whispers, thought anthems like Miss World and Violet were powered by an in-the-red crackle of guitar and Loves magnetic, raspy roar. Sporting songs of resilience, delivered with passion and fuzz-borne intensity, it made Hole icons.
