Hole's drummer from 1992–1998, Schemel will release her autobiography titled Hit So Hard. The book chronicles her life as a woman in the music industry, her memories of Cobain, her life with drug addiction, leaving Hole, being homeless in Los Angeles, how she got sober, and more.
This intimate glimpse into the life of a female rocker follows a 2011 documentary of the same name featuring Schemel, which provided a never-before-seen look into life with Hole, including archival footage of Schemel, Love and Cobain throughout their heyday in the 1990s.
Get your hands on this don't-miss memoir, Hit So Hard, via Da Capo press on Oct. 31.
