I’ve always thought Kim Thayil wasn’t celebrated enough.
...reminds me of "road Rash" from PS1. I especially like Kim's work on " Pretty Noose". Kim's unusual style suited the times and the band...When their is a voice like Chris Cornell's, the rest of the band gets overlooked, maybe that is why he doesn't get enough recognition.
I like Kim, but he's kind of in the shitty position of just being a lead guitarist in a band that doesn't always have a lot of big solos. While they all contributed to writing the songs, Chris was the most creative force, and he was also an excellent guitarist himself.
@@raymo6795 the music off of one and two of Road Rash is off the hook!
He is so humble as well. Not wanting to be called “lead guitarist” and I guy who creates sounds lol
@@endocry well I could be wrong, but at the time (I’m of the age ha) this was current, I thought his somewhat understated guitar style was by design. We had just come out of 10 years of shred-Halen so this was more consistent with the punk rock / alternative style = heavy guitars but light on the solos. I think kim did have a rather unique style regardless.
After hearing Audioslave and now Soundgarden, Lex's analysis of Chris Cornell: "It's like rolling dice, you never know what you're gonna get". Both funny and accurate.
But the same could be said about a lot of singers: Layne Staley, Sammy Hagar, Steven Tyler...The list goes on. That doesn't make her any less right though. lol
I slightly disagree... I knew his voice was kinda crumbling with Audioslave.
Except for one major difference is that with Chris Cornell you always win, but yes her and Brad both are really good at this. Much, much better than I am
exactly yall. she talking about the emotion and feel behind the way he comes at every bar
Chris could belt them out like no other! He is an always will be sorely missed.
And his predecessor Dio.
This is just a phenomenal heavy grunge song. Everybody was blown away when this came out.
...I know I was...I started throwing out my Poison , BonJovi and Winger albums and cutting the sleeves off of my flannel shirts
@@raymo6795 that was a good move 👍🏼. I think GnR was the only hard rock / pre grunge band that had some balls. But yea I loved sound gardens first couple of albums as well as Alice In Chains first two albums. Super heavy but no cheese.
@@slashtrio … this was an exciting time in music
@@slashtrio Badmotorfinger was a killer!
"Blow up the outside world" "Burden in my Hand" and "the day I tried to live". Any of those 3 are amazing sounds by soundgarden
Rusty Cage , they will not do???
The day I tried to live
@@johnnysunshine8278 I mean there a thousand good songs by soundgarden, my favourite is fell on black days, idk if they reacted to that one already. I think they did
"the day I tried to live" is my favorite song of all time. Not only is it a great melody, but its so relatable of being an introvert. It's my theme song.
If you search for reactions for "Blow up the Outside World" there aren't any by the more popular reaction channels. Doing a review for it would put them near the top for search results. It would be a good channel choice.
I once dated a woman who said , on our last date, that she liked the singer from Creed better and actually walked out on a Soundgarden concert because CC's voice was to screechy. Like I said, that was our last date!
Good call, friend. That woman was not of sound mind.
😂😂😂
You did the right thing lol
Good on you.
I refuse to date someone with bad musical taste. Soundgarden is a must.
You dodged a bullet
Chris was one talented dude.
One of the greatest voices ever in the buisness.....
heard him sing once. lollapalooza.
he had 20,000 people in Atlanta in the palm of his hand
That WHOLE album this song is on is absolutely fire!
Yeah Badmotorfinger is honestly awesome 🙌🏻🙌🏻!!
The Badmotorfinger album is heavy as hell. It's the greatest vocal work Chris ever did too. He almost breaks glass with his voice on tracks like "Slaves And Bulldozers"
My favorite from "Badmotorfinger" has always been "Room A Thousand Years Wide". That doesn't seem to be a common favorite. It never gets mentioned. And I don't get why , it's awesome.
Drawing Flies is my fav song on the album
Also Temple of the Dog is. That’s underrated but it’s my favorite Chris vocal.
@@adgato75 good call
@@adgato75 good call, one of the best tracks on the album.
The song is about Chris Cornell himself and what he feels like when he is battling his depression "looking California, but feeling Minnesota (meaning he may look good outside but he is feeling depressed, cold and dark inside, I'm feeling sober even though I'm drinking. So he tries to fake it on the outside to appear normal but he is being "Outshined" by his depression that is taking him over.
Maybe the first Soundgarden song I ever heard
And decades later it still never gets old.
Rest in peace Chris I love you bro...
My favourite singer my favourite band of all time.
🤘🤘💙💙
I think it is the first I heard too, maybe from "RoadRash" on PS1, "Kickstand" is also on that game...is Antony a Husky?..looks to be, but the picture is small
He’s looking California but feeling Minnesota…
The way he looks to others is the opposite of what he’s feeling inside…..depression
Looking hot, feeling cold.
Chris Cornell was one of the most unique singers. Can never be replaced. RIP CC 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
This tune is extremely Heavy. The main riff is heaviness personified. Chunk chunk chunk chunk chunk.
Lot of Black Sabbath influence
lol. When I read that I heard "chunk chunk chunk butterflies"
@@conspiracionesy People forget Black Sabbath is Metal, I have to remind that to a shocking amount of people
And there is nothing wrong with that. :)
If you want to hear a voice that’s a roll of the dice, you need to check out Mike Patton. His bands Faith No More, Mr. Bungle, and Tomahawk. He has one of the biggest vocal ranges you’ll ever hear.
You can add Peeping Tom, Mondo Cane or Dead Cross to his bands and of course Fantomas !
eh - one of the biggest... try THE biggest, followed in 2nd pace by Corey Taylor who said seeing Mike singing on tv back when they released The Real Thing saved his life Respect & Peace
Midlife crisis.... Last Cup of sorrow.... A small victory these are some of my favorite songs
Mmmm....Mr bungle ftw!
Don't forget his voice work in movies and video games!
This whole album was fire. Their best work in my opinion.
Yes I totally agree with you it was an unbelievable album. Rip Chris you left us way too soon 🙏
"Looking California...feeling Minnesota " wonder if he was talking about his image outshining who he really was.🤔🔥🔥
Nice one Heidi. I never really examined these songs before, so I just took it more literally. " I look good on the outside, but feel like sh!t on the inside "
I've always seen it as a roundabout way to say I'm looking hot/looking good but I'm feeling cold/uncompassionate.
Its depression. He looks and acts like everything is great but inside he feels awful
I'm looking fly, but I'm miserable inside
IDK but I've always loved that line. 🤘🤘
There are different types of heavy. This is what I would consider a heavy song. That groove is heavy af. There's metal heavy which also has different types of heavy within it
Finally someone who gets there is more to "heavy" music than blast beats and gutturals.
Sometimes it's the content of the song or atmosphere.
yeah this one is sludgy-heavy, like Sabbath was. It doesn't sound like Sabbath, just the same type of heavy
It has a lot of low end thick gravy feel!
I've said for years that Johnny Cash was the originator of metal. Put distortion on "Big River"
@@justinpalmer6098 well said
Brad, why is it when youre playing metal Lex is IN THE MUSIC......and you're just outside lookin like you takin a math test?
Kidding....this dichotomy is PERFECT!!!!
Brad: e to the i*pi + 1 = 0 ????????
Lex: e to the I to the pi. It flows. And it symbolizes zero, the entirety of all things! So groovy!
she even picked up on the drop-d tuning, imo
No, he really does... He just doesn't get it.
First Soundgarden song I heard, went straight out and got the CD. My favourite voice in rock. Mike Patton definitely needs some reactions, another of my favourites, IMMENSELY talented vocalist.
Actually, the whole band Faith No More is a Must listen. The bassist Billy Gould is amazing. Any album, any song is good, but my fav is The Morning After cuz of the bass riffs.
@@mrbaddog4749 I agree of course
captivated by Lex. she understands soul and this kinda music
Soundgarden ‘Beyond The Wheel’ 2010 live. Awesome vocals
This is Heavy Metal. Soundgarden is a very versatile band. Even a lot of early Alice In Chains is very Metal.
Thank you! That’s why I HATE the grunge label. It was a fad but these bands are not and they ARE rock and metal.
I remember reading an interview a thousand years ago where they asked Alice in Chains how they felt about being one of the preeminent grunge bands and Jerry literally said, "What are you talking about? We play metal."
And I’ve read interviews where SG said they absolutely HATED being called grunge.
@@lisajohnson521 well any of these labels can get a little sloppy. It’s not like these are well defined concepts. But yea, sounds like metal but they had that “grunge look” of the early 90s and the lyrical content was more introspective than lots metal, maybe that’s why it got lumped in with the grunge movement.
I don't think anyone has a better perspective on music than Lex. Her interpretations are priceless.
Yes....Soundgarden is just one of those bands absolutely worthy of a lot of reviews!!!! next...4th of July please!!!
They already did that
@@josemadera3138 they did? ok...obviously didn't know that....thanks for the info!
@@pauljansen1137 cool idk if it's still up but look for it on their channel
@@josemadera3138 I know....they probably have a play list...I am just an impulsive guy though😀...
The riff in this song!! 🔥🔥
THIS is my favorite Soundgarden! Every song on Badmotorfinger is amazing! It would definitely be one of my deserted island albums!!
I had the great pleasure of seeing Chris perform live and he sounds just as good live!!
I agree. My friend was never really into him until we saw him live. She started looking for his concerts after that lolol
we got to see this angel twice before he left us 😢
Hey. This is the second video I've watched from you. (First being the Primus one that you did after this one). I was really impressed how Lex instantly took in the song's vibe. She immediately spotted the very metal sounding groove, and the whole heavy - light interplay. Love the song, and the reaction. Keep rocking. Cheers
not sure why but this version is missing the best verse:
"Well someone let the dogs out
They'll show you where the truth is
The grass is always greener
Where the dogs are shitting"
I knew it seemed wrong. This must be from a radio edit single version.
Yeah, it was chopped a little bit. Missing some choice screams too.
Such a great line, not true scientifically, but it's very satisfyingly cynical.
“ I Can’t get any lower , still I feel I’m sinking “ ❤️ such a beautiful soul .. we miss you Chris 🐐
When you have the range like him u can play all over both high and low!! A great song by Soundgarden is Burden in my hand!!
bruden in my hand is a must!!!!
My favorite song 👍
I love your energy in these reactions.
Thank God you guys finally reacted to Outshined! I was punting this song so hard in your livestreams a few days ago. In my opinion, this is the heaviest grunge song ever made, so when Lex said it sounded heavy, she was spot on.
You should react to Mad Season - Wake Up, it's got Layne Staley from Alice In Chains & Mike McCready from Pearl Jam, it's a whole vibe.
Also, theres an Alice In Chains & Chris Cornell collab, it's called "Right Turn", great song =)
You two drop multiple reaction videos all the time. And it's short and sweet. My favorite duo to watch as they react.
One thing I absolutely love about Soundgarden is their use of odd time signatures. If you don't understand the musical term, at the start of the song count out the beats in the riff - it's 7 not the typical 4 or 8 of just about any other song. They might be the most famous band out there that did that kind of thing (and it's not just this song, it's in a lot of their work). Very unique.
OMG Lex~you definitely need to hear him sing Ave Maria!! AMAZING!! That man had so much talent. You can do this one on your own, but please give it a listen. His voice is so beautiful. Thank you for taking the Chris Cornell journey. Please keep it going.
If you want to hear something really heavy from Soundgarden, check out the song "Slaves and Bulldozers"
Yes yes yes!! Been waiting for this one. This whole album is so friggin good!
It's a CLASSIC!
Should react to “Temple of the Dog “ “say Hello to Heaven “. His singing is unreal
Caught both Audioslave and Soundgarden live. Both insane concerts. His vocal range was off the charts. Both bands were incredible back ups to an incredible voice. Really went to soon.
I love watching people react to Chris! He had one hell of a set of pipes on him. Outshined is one of my favs he sings. Cochise (Audioslave) is another one you'd love, Lex!
The vocals and guitar riffs in this song are epic.
I love when Lex said his like rolling dice. Since badmotofinger I've called Chris Cornell the man with the golden voice(a play in a old bond movie). He is sorely missed, music lost a super hero when he died. RIP Chris...
Chris was multi faceted, so much talent. Chris gets really bluesy in the song Two Drink Minimum. His vocal ability really shines in that song.
this was the first song I ever heard from Soundgarden back in '91 and was instantly hooked - Chris was THE best singer to come out of the Seattle scene... by a long way, untouchable R.I.P. Chris Respect & Peace
Honestly all those guys had killer voices. Well vedder, staley, cornell, hiw crazy. Im from Seattle abd those times were so fkng awesome. Never be the same again. The times were so alive. Makes my hair stand up thinking if seeing pearl jam Soundgarden primus alice in chains more at lalapalooza in bremerton in 92. Rainy day. My god. All those bands at one small festival that kicked ass. Go watch soundgarden live in Bremerton 92. So awesome. Youll see vedder in back watching. I was right there. The crowd was steaming. Omg i want to go back. Almost live with Soundgarden yes please
How crazy. You guys were doing Soundgarden at the same time i was asking for it and u went to some heavy stuff.
Lexington, you listen to music (especially Cornell ) exactly like I do...head bobbin, eyes closed, wrinkled nose and swaying shoulders. Feeling the whole song!
Lex I just love watching and listening to your reactions to hard rock. I think you rock. Keep it up girl 😘
Excellent choice guys. Quite excellent. You won’t hurt my feelings with more Soundgarden.
Love Soundgarden, great choices today🎸🔥❤️
One of the greatest vocalist ever! ♥
It's a shame you'll never get to see Chris and Soundgarden live. One of my best memories as a teen was seeing Soundgarden live. And they killed it. And this songs performance was the best. I remember it more than anything. 🤘 R.I.P. Chris
Happy Valentine’s Day to you both. You crack me up.
You guys are so much fun...different visions, yet in sync...Take it from this old 60 year old lady,...y'all are so good together. Having spent lmy career life in economic development(retired now but still do consulting gigs) I enjoy reactors and you two are banging it!
I died a little after that first pause 😂 great reaction though guys. Y’all’s channel has been my current source of dopamine 🤙🏻
I remember hearing this song on the radio when it first came out and was an instant fan.
Im looking California and feeling Minnesota. My fav Soundgarden lyric and song.
The Day I Tried To Live -- must hear from Soundgarden and as a cover by Sevendust (powerful!!)
Bad motorfinger was such a great album! Rusty cage was great too. Didn't Johnny Cash cover that??
This is such a groove and Lex is immediately feeling it
I love your reactions to music that i love. I sense that you also learn a new band's history as you become more familiar with their music. One thing to know about Soundgarden - they were the first of the Seattle / grunge bands to get a major record deal. While Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and Pearl Jam were promoting their debut albums, Soundgarden already had 2 full albums and 2 EPs released. "Outshined" is actually off their 3rd album - "Badmotorfinger" - a great album!!! But there are dozens of great Soundgarden songs off their previous recordings that few fans / reactors seem to pay attention to - and i would urge you to check out some of their early songs - some of my favorites are: "GUN, BEYOND THE WHEEL, I AWAKE, and LOUD LOVE." You get a sense from where "grunge" originates.
Makes me want to cry. Such an amazing singer. Such a sad ending.
Probably SG's best combo as hard as nails and still accessible to the masses. That chorus is massive.
Yes yes yes! Best singer of all time. His voice is like no other.
He had to be the best front man in rock (IMO) when you factor range, power, soul and charisma. He just inhabited the song. Some of their best tracks that you haven't hit are Burden in My Hand, My Wave, Blow Up the Outside World, Spoonman and Slaves and Bulldozers.
As much as I love Chris, my favorite front man has to be Mike Patton. His mind blowing range and creativity set him apart from anyone else.
I like TOOL. alot. I watch lots of Tool reaction videos. Pretty sure thats how I found you two. But you guys are the only reaction channel I subscribe to. I look forward daily to seeing you get to hear all this wonderful music for the 1st time. I'm right there analyzing the lyrics with Brad, and rocking out with Lex. You guys really have something special here. The difference in personalities gives each of you a unique perspective. And you guys seem absolutely genuine, people will always respond to that, as its something we could all use more of in our lives.
Tldr: love you guys, keep up the amazing work!
Oh yeah, Outshined is a phenomenal song. soundgarden was my favorite as a kid.
That girl is metal through and through. Love it!!!
Back in the wayyyy early 90s there was a 3 week period where i got Tool Opiate or Undertow, Alice In Chains Facelift, and Soundgarden Badmotorfinger to add to Nirvana, Jane’s Addiction ( Ritual ) and Rage. All of them within a one year period. I would love to have another year like that musically but the chances of it happening are conservatively about 0.0 percent. Listening to these 2 react takes me back to that year if only for a while. Awesome.
Soundgarden-Room A Thousand Years Wide.
Aww Lex is loving it & really feeling it!
Chris Cornell's band Audioslave/ Shadow On The Sun is also a awesome throwback
She smiles and tweaks at the right times. Totally gets it!
That is Eddie Vedder doing backing vocals on the chorus btw. This was when Eddie came to Seattle from California to be the new singer for Mother Love Bone, but they decided to change the name tp Pearl Jam when Eddie joined. Pearl Jam is basically a supergroup of Sound Garden and Mother Love Bone. The Drummer for Soundgarden ended up joining Pearl Jam later on.
It is heavy. I agree. You guys are great
Temple of the dog, "Say hello to heaven".
This whole album is just gold as far as I'm concerned, Superunknown is probably their best album, so many good songs.
Chris was different with each group and solo. I think because the organic feel of each group of guys was different. It made him an amazing talent we may never see against. Of and how Chris's personal life was going. GOAT!
These two play well off on another. Brad is mostly cerebral and Lex is all about the feel of the music. Entertaining to watch
You guys should hear him sing Nothing Compares 2 You, a Prince song that was covered brilliantly by Sinead O’Connor also, but he gives you another side of his voice.
Billy Jean !!!
The movie True Romance used up almost their entire music budget because the director wanted this song, which was new and killing it at the time. That's why all the other songs on the soundtrack are older or unknown. For a skinny kid who had confidence issues (and a drummer), he switched gears and just rocked the world, he gets the same amount of credit as Cobain and Vedder for the Grunge day, Chains too. Great era.
Great song, great singer RIP Chris.
Lex has the best reactions and comments. Sooo relevant!
What a fantastic voice missing from this world, what a shame!
This was my first introduction to Chris Cornell/Soundgarden back in college. Love this song.
Great reaction to some Great Musicians playing Great Music. 🌞🌞🌞🌞 R.I.P. Mr. Chris Cornell🌞🌞🌞
That's a crisp ending. Very respectable.
I took down a lot of bike rivals listening to Soundgarden's Outshined, playing Road Rash 3 on my PS1 in the early 2000s.
Soundgarden - Room a Thousand Years Wide or Birth Ritual, such good tunes
I remember when this premiered on MTV back in the day and Rickey Rocket was talking about “check out this new band , they have a cool new unique sound”… 👌
Chris's voice is one of the greatest all time. RIP :(
IT'S THE FEELING!!!
YOU NAILED LEX!!!
It’s not a sound, it’s a feeling! Well said
The name of this reminded me have a really cool band called Shinedown. If you haven’t already done so you should check them out I think that she would really like it
I love to hear Lex try to describe what she hears & having trouble putting it into words but I also understand everything shes saying. :)
He can sing literally anything and it will sound like it was meant for him
The drop d tuning of the guitar is what makes it sound heavy
I was at concert in Irvine Meadows CA back in the early nineties and I'm paraphrasing here, but he said "A lot of people ask me who this song is for, well you know all the people who have our shirts and albums and front row to all our concerts? This song is for everyone else". To which a mass of drunk and sunburnt people began to cheer.
She’s right! She’s right about the bottom being heavy and the vocals light. Smart
