What Dave Grohl’s Exes Have Said About Him

L7 is a Los Angeles-based hard rock band that formed in the mid-1980s and became associated with Seattle-oriented grunge acts a few years later. Memorable for snarky, snarling alternative rock radio hits like “Pretend We’re Dead” and “Andres,” L7’s musicians ran in the same circles as the members of Nirvana — bassist Jennifer Finch’s former Sugar Babylon bandmate Courtney Love married Nirvana’s Kurt Cobain, and Finch and Nirvana drummer Dave Grohl were a couple for a short period in the early 1990s.

In the 2016 documentary “L7: Pretend We’re Dead,” Finch explained that when her band was recording the 1992 album “Bricks Are Heavy” with Butch Vig, the producer’s previous project, Nirvana’s “Nevermind,” hit stores. “And it blew up,” Finch said. In ’90s-era footage in the documentary, Finch is shown looking through a magazine with Nirvana — including Grohl — on the cover. “Everywhere I go, everywhere I turn, I see this f***ing face,” Finch said. “Frankly, I’m sick of it.”

Finch doesn’t like to talk much about that period of her life, and couldn’t bring herself to watch the Nirvana-heavy documentary “Montage of Heck.” “I have my own memories of those times, and those memories are at a point where they are fading,” Finch told The Big Takeover in 2015. “I don’t want someone else’s ingrained into my brain.”
