A stunningly candid portrait of the Seattle grunge scene of the '90s and a memoir of an addict during the last great era of rock 'n' roll excess, by Hole drummer Patty Schemel Patty Schemel's story begins with a childhood surrounded by the AA meetings her parents hosted in the family living room. Their divorce triggered her first forays into drinking at age twelve and dovetailed with her passion for punk rock and playing the drums. Patty's struggles with her sexuality further drove her notoriously hard playing, and by the late '80s she had focused that anger, confusion, and drive into regular gigs with well-regarded bands in Tacoma, Seattle, and Olympia, Washington. She met a pre-Nirvana Kurt Cobain at a Melvins show, and less than five years later, was living with him and his wife, Hole front-woman Courtney Love, at the height of his fame and on the cusp of hers. As the platinum-selling band's new drummer, Schemel contributed memorable, driving beats to hits like "Beautiful Son," "Violet," "Doll Parts," and "Miss World." But the band was plagued by tragedy and heroin addiction, and by the time Hole went on tour in support of their ironically titled and critically-acclaimed album Live Through This in 1994, both Cobain and Hole bassist Kristen Pfaff had died at the age of 27 With surprising candor and wit, Schemel intimately documents the events surrounding her dramatic exit from the band in 1998 that led to a dark descent into a life of homelessness and crime on the streets of Los Angeles, and the difficult but rewarding path to lasting sobriety after more than twenty serious attempts to get clean. Hit So Hard is a testament not only to the enduring power of the music Schemel helped create but an important document of the drug culture that threatened to destroy it.

Anyone who does not believe addiction is a medical condition should read this memoir. Schemel details how the cards were already stacked against her being born into a family of recovering addicts. From there, we see her embark on her own Downward Spiral (get it!?) and back up again. To see what one will do to themselves as well as those around them is truly horrifying and heartbreaking.Whereas the bulk of the memoir details her addiction and relationships to those around her, there is also interesting information on the recording process and tour behind Live Through This and the start of the recording process behind Celebrity Skin as well as appearances from a few 90s heroes, some of which sadly did not survive the era.If you have seen the 2011 documentary by the same name, you'll have an idea of what you are getting into by reading this. The documentary serves as sort of an overview for the memoir, with the memoir adding layers of dark details to what ultimately becomes a story of triumph.In a Nutshell (aha! another 90s reference!), if you like Hole, this memoir is for you.If you were around in the 90s and remember the headlines and magazine covers (musically), this memoir is for you.If you remember what you were doing when Kurt said goodbye, this memoir is for you.If you like drummers, this memoir is for you.If you remember reading how Schemel came out in Rolling Stone magazine and you were struggling with your own sexuality, this memoir is for you.If you remember reading how Schemel came out in Rolling Stone magazine and you were not struggling with your own sexuality, this memoir is for you.If you want to learn more about addiction and its effects directly from the source, this memoir is for you.If you just just want a really great memoir with dark roads and happy endings, this memoir is for you.
