Fans of Nirvana have a new reason to rejoice. The recent documentary "Montage of Heck," which was released in theaters and will now be showing on HBO as of Monday, has brought Kurt Cobain back into the national spotlight.

The documentary explores an intimate portrait of Cobain, focusing less on the conspiracy theories and more into who Cobain really was.

In an interview with Bedford and Bowery, film director Brett Morgen dropped the bombshell Cobain fans have been waiting more than two decades for: There is new music by Cobain.

"We're going to be putting out an amazing album this summer that I think will answer that question," Morgen said.

He went on to say the album of home recordings "will feel like you're kind of hanging out with Kurt Cobain on a hot summer day in Olympia, Washington as he fiddles about. It's going to really surprise people. Just to be clear, it's not a Nirvana album, it's just Kurt and you're going to hear him do things you never expected to come out of him."

Although it is unclear what to make of that statement, it might be prudent to assume that it is not quite the clear "grunge" sound he almost single-handedly engineered in the early '90s.

Morgen also gave details about the making his documentary, which he said he started to discuss with Courtney Love back in 2007. He said legal issues were quite a hurdle, but once those were out of the way, he was given access to a storage facility, which housed all things Cobain. Morgen detailed that experience like nearly any Cobain fan would.

"I arrived there, this place had become mythical in my mind. I was imagining the last scene of 'Raiders of the Lost Ark' or 'Citizen Kane' -- a long, cavernous room filled with crates of all sorts of intrigue and mystery," Morgen said.

But once inside, it became a little more surreal.

"Well, I entered into a non-descript industrial storage room with industrial lights and carpet and low ceilings," Morgen said. "The caretaker, if you will, the guy who worked at the facility had gone to the trouble of putting all of Kurt's paintings along the walls, and his guitar cases were spread out on one side of the room, open with the guitars out. And in the middle were maybe a dozen boxes that felt quite small within the space. I remember thinking as I gazed upon this, 'What did I just get myself into? Where is all this stuff?'"

When asked what was on the cassette tapes he unboxed, Morgen replied, "The audio ran the gamut from jam sessions with Courtney, some jam sessions with various friends and Nirvana, his first demo tapes, his Fecal Matter demos, his mix tapes and oral canvases..."

According to Deadspin, Cobain's daughter, Frances Bean Cobain, served as executive producer for the documentary.
