“It’s more important than any record I’ve ever made, by far,” Courtney Love tells Rolling Stone of Nobody’s Daughter, her much-delayed and much-anticipated album and first release since 2004’s America’s Sweetheart. Love began writing songs for Nobody’s Daughter in 2005 during a court-mandated rehab, then spent “66 and a half days” recording with producers Billy Corgan and Linda Perry.

For the LP, Love has resurrected her Hole moniker, making Nobody’s Daughter the first Hole album since 1998’s Celebrity Skin. “Wherever I lay my head is Hole,” Love says to RS‘ Jenny Eliscu, who sat down with the singer at New York’s Electric Lady Studios for an interview in the new issue.
