The Notorious 27 Club
Cobain’s suicide gained him membership to the 27 Club, which is actually just a notional club and not actually one you can become a member of, per se. The 27 Club is a group of musicians and artists of prominence who died at the age of 27, and other ‘members’ of the club are Amy Winehouse, Janis Joplin, and Jimmy Hendrix, to name a few. Research has disproved that there is any relationship between the deaths of the ‘members’ and their age. Many of those who died at 27 led highly risky lives – not exactly what you would call a healthy lifestyle!
