Ask for It is an EP by grunge rock band Hole. Of course the wonderful band isn't together anymore, we still have their great music to look back on. It's hard to critique this album since it's mainly b-sides. Drown Soda and Pale Blue Eyes are excellent songs and you get demo versions of Violet and Doll Parts but this cd is just ok, nothing special. I recommend Hole's Live Through This or Celebrity Skin instead.

I'm a Hole fan, I admit it. I'm going to assume that if you're reading this, you're either a burgeoning Hole fan (otherwise you'd already own it) or buying for someone who has some of their albums but not the full discography.
That said, about half of the tracks on this CD are songs that even I - as a Hole devotee - could live without ever hearing again.

Hole was an amazing band, fronted by the notorious Courtney Love. Love her, or hate her you have to admit she is a great writer and preformer. Ask For It [EP] was released in this midst of Kurt Cobain's death.
1) Over The Edge - A cover song, originally performed by the Wipers. I believe it was recorded while she was pregnant with Francis, although I'm not certain.
2) Pale Blue Eyes - Another cover song, except this one is originally by Lou Reed. Preformed live, and very emotional. The crowds whisles and some conversation can be heard, but overall a stand out.
3) Drown Soda - The first non-cover track of the album. It's a classic Hole song, a live version cdan be found on the "My Body, The Hand Gernade" album.
