A statue of Kurt Cobain has been unveiled in the late Nirvana singer’s hometown of Aberdeen in Washington, and it looks nothing like him.

The only problem is the lack of a resemblance to Cobain, who was 27 when he took his own life in 1994. What do you think? Does it look like Kurt Cobain? Whoever sculpted the guitar could use a few night classes, at the very least. CobainStatue
