    Soundgarden was first. Audioslave was Chris as lead singer and the band was Rage Against the Machine. When Rage got back together, Chris got back with Soundgarden and also did more solo projects. My wife and I saw Soundgarden in Kansas City two days before Chris tragically passed on. We saw him two other times prior. Incredible performer. One of the only celebrity passings that shook me to my core. Truly a tragic loss.

      I was fortunate to have seen Chris perform in San Francisco just days or weeks (I don't remember exactly) before his death. They did the entirety of the Temple of the Dog album and it was life-affirming.

      I had a free ticket to that show; however I live in western Kansas. I was seeing Red Hot Chili Peppers then later Muse in KC, and Metallica in Denver all in a 4 week span, so I turned it down citing I was already taking too much time off of work. That ended up being one of the biggest regrets in my life.

    Soundgarden was the Seattle band that Chris Cornell formed in 1984 w/ Kim Thayil (guitar), Matt Cameron (drums) and Hiro Yamamoto (bass)... releasing indie records in the 80's before they were signed to a major label in 1989. After the release of 'Louder than love' in '89, Hiro Yamamoto left and was replaced in 1990 by Ben Shepherd (bass)... Jason Everman played bass briefly in Soundgarden, best known for being in Nirvana as a guitarist in 1989.
    Cornell was friends w/ singer Andrew Wood of Mother Love Bone... when Wood died of an OD in 1990, Chris Cornell poured his grief into songs which he recorded w/ members of Mother Love Bone (who formed Pearl Jam) and Soundgarden. That was the 'Temple of the Dog' album in 1991 and it became a platinum success in 1992 w/ the hit single 'Hunger strike' (feat. Eddie Vedder of Pearl Jam).\
    Soundgarden also scored a platinum record in 1991 w/ 'Badmotorfinger' and became part of the 'grunge rock' scene from Seattle w/ Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Alice In Chains...
    After the death of Nirvana's Kurt Cobain in 1994, Soundgarden released their biggest record 'Superunknown'... it went 6x platinum in the US... The next album 'Down on the upside' (1996) did not do as well, but still sold platinum. However, there were problems in Soundgarden and Chris Cornell was often struggling w/ depression and poor performances on tour... In 1997, Soundgarden unexpectedly announced their breakup.
    Chris Cornell released his first solo album 'Euphoria morning' in 1999, but it did not sell as well.
    After Rage Against the Machine disbanded in 2001, the 3 remaining members decided to approach Chris Cornell about singing for a new project... he accepted. Audioslave was formed in 2002 and released their debut, which sold 2x platinum... However, Chris Cornell left the band in 2006 after only 3 albums.
    Cornell released some solo records afterwards... but then reformed Soundgarden in 2010, releasing their comeback album 'King Animal' in 2012... Unfortunately, it was apparent that Chris Cornell was still struggling w/ the same issues as before... Some of his performances were painfully abysmal in concert... After a Soundgarden concert in 2017 in Detroit, he barricaded himself in his hotel room and took his own life (R.I.P.)
    Looking back... we can hear and feel Chris Cornell's angst and depression in real time in Soundgarden. He wrote very cryptic songs from way back - 'Fell on black days' was about depression from 1994... the 'Superunknown' album had dark songs like 'The day I tried to live'... 'Let me drown'... 'Like suicide'... The opening song on 'Down on the upside' in 1996 was the single 'Pretty noose'...
    Even in Audioslave, there were references to his struggles w/ the songs - 'Show me how to live'... 'Like a stone'... "Doesn't remind me"...

    Soundgarden is one of the best bands ever and not enough people listen to them. Their entire catalog is chocked full of amazing songs. Tons of people have only heard Black Hole Sun, and that’s a shame. Sooooooo many good songs. “A Thousand Days Before” from their last album would be my suggestion for what to do next. Nobody has done that one yet. It is awesome.

    @harveyroadcap1254 2 місяці тому

    Exactly correct Jonathandodds. Soundgarden was formed in the mid 1980s but did not get national attention until the early 1990s with this powerhouse record Superunknown. Chris was a true shining light from the Seattle scene. It was such a sad day when we learned he left us all. Him, Kurt Cobain, Layne Staley from Alice in Chains, Andy Wood from Mother Love Bone (the first Seattle casualty, and later that group became Pearl Jam with Eddie Vedder) and Scott Weiland from Stone Temple Pilots. All these AMAZING vocalists (except Eddie Vedder) left this world due to addiction. Its so sad because they were all such beautiful musicians. Please Aileen keep discovering all these bands because as an "old dude" I can surely tell you this early 90s sound will never be duplicated ever again. I LOVE your passion for what you are listening to!!!

    You should do "Outshined" or "Rusty Cage" from the Badmotorfinger album for a little bit older Soundgarden from the early 90s. Johnny Cash actually did a cover of "Rusty Cage". Also, maybe you're already on it, but you should do some Rage Against The Machine for context to Audioslave. "Killing In The Name" is probably a good place to start.

    The late 1980's in Seattle were truly amazing. Most of the musicians had a really tight community, they hang out together, shared thoughts and ideas. Music was a true lifestyle and that's why the sound from those days was so unique. It wasn't just the Soundgardens, Alice in Chains and Nirvana's, but also the Screaming Trees, Mudhoney, Melvins, Mother Love Bone and so many I can't mention here. People like me would go to the popular clubs like the RCKCNDY and listen to one amazing band after another.

  • @nikolah.8472

    Im glad you liked the song. Many suggest only the bangers from soundgarden everyone knows because Chris goes full blow, but this song hit much harder for me. His subtile changes in his voicing, going soft, going almost for a cry, whimmer over his pain, going frustrated angry over the situation and portrait the misery and helplessness. This really crawls under my skin.
    If you want another piece of my depress box of awesomeness, but this time female singer:
    Evanescence - My Immortal(song about a lost family member, beautiful ballad)
    Lithium(Lithium is used for bipolar illness, Amy sings over the hate relationship with this drug that numbs you and sucks your life out to cure the illness. Methaphorical it stands also for not letting go of sorrow, because at that point its a part of herself allready, beeing afraid to lose a part of yourself)
    Also Linkin Park- Crawling is a good listen.
    Enjoy the music, im happy to see you explore new songs ;).

    Soundgarden was 1984-1997, then got back together 2010-2017 (his death). Temple of the Dog is a side Project between Soundgarden and Pearl Jam was 1991. Audioslave was 2001-2007. This song is from 1994, Like a Stone was 2003.

    I'm really loving the Soundgarden/Audioslave route we're going down. Can't wait for you to look at the live performance with them and Linkin Park that I showed you from Stream. Can we talk about the fit too?? The top is the cutest thing since sliced bread. I've always loved the OOoOOoOOOOo he does in the song, it's always been super haunting? feeling for me. You can feel the pain in his screams.

    Yay! You’ve picked out an absolute gem here, one of Soundgarden’s very best, but oh so typical of his and their style. I have always loved Chris Cornell’s songwriting, especially his lyrics, and it’s never better showcased than in this song. And then he opens his mouth and you come to realise what an extraordinary, gifted, versatile, expressive and, well, gorgeous singer he was.
    It’s such a shame he left us so soon; shocking to think it has been 6 years already. I for one, miss him. But I still listen to Soundgarden frequently, in fact I had them playing in my headphones when I went for a run last Sunday (I recommend “Rusty Cage” if you want to really hit an uphill section).
    Thanks as ever, Aileen, for another wonderful reaction video.

    The first song I ever heard from sound garden was OUTSHINED! It was my sophomore year 1991-92 when guns n roses had just put out use your illusion 1-2 so they ruled MTV.. I was a huge guns & roses fan..
    heard this song and was blown away! After that came, spoon man, black hole
    Son, fell on black days and so forth..
    Listen to Outshined and loud! It’s one of my favorite songs! And it’s a great way to kick it off!

    My introduction to Chris was when he was with Audioslave "Show Me How to Life." It was like the perfect post highschool song. And later in life, you realize that you really want to know how to live. And the fact the music video took cues from the movie, Vanishing Point, made it 1,000x better. We will never see the likes of him ever again, which is a great tragedy for future fans.

    Such a great reaction, Aileen.
    This is from the mid nineties this track is from an amazing album called 'Superunknown' there's not a bad track on that album, for a lighter track check out 'Spoonman', 'Black Hole Sun' and 'My Wave' are other tracks which you should do. Around that time there were three great albums out, 'Soundgarden - Superunknown', 'Pearl Jam -Ten' and 'Faith No More - The Real Thing'.

    Try these 2 tracks, "Call me a Dog" and "Say Hello to Heaven" from Temple of the Dog (Features Chris Cornell). I think they are among his top vocal performances. The album was recorded before Soundgarden was formed.

    "Groovy somberness" would be the perfect way to describe Soundgarden's music, it's groovy, somber, OR groovy AND somber. In a way, like Black Sabbath but more personal and emotion-driven, keeping the heavy bass/guitar riffs and adding Chris to the mix.
    Also, some cool little fun facts: Chris and a few members of Pearl Jam, Eddie included, have cameos or minor roles in the 1991/1992 Seattle love story movie called "Singles". Eddie plays a drummer for the MC (there's multiple main characters, but specifically the rockstar MC) and has a few lines, and Chris is a resident of the apartment block where most of the main characters live that shows up for a quick scene. Additionally, Soundgarden and Alice in Chains have cameos too, where they perform in like a small stage kind of place for parts of the movie (a prototype version of "Spoonman" can also be heard in one scene). I'm not sure if it's on streaming services, but you can watch it for free on UA-cam (free-with-ads) if you're ever in the mood for a good love story film.

    Good choice for your first Soundgarden experience.
    You should check out The Pretty Reckless "Only Love Can Save Me Now". Chris was a important person to Taylor Momson (TPR vocals) and was on tour with them when he died. That along with the loss of her best friend months later sent her into a deep depression. The song is about all that and it was so perfect to the Soundgarden feeling that they asked Matt Cameron and Kim Thayil (Soundgarden drums and guitar) to join on it. And of course Talor is a great singer songwriter. The video really has a lot deep images that most don't get on the surface but for someone that has been there it hits home in a lot of ways.
    "25" unplugged is another great on that showcases her voice and the influence Chris Cornell had on her in her vocal style.

    Seen Audioslave also,
    every emotion is felt within songs at any moment in time. A true musician that will be missed, Chris Cornell and his fellow musicians will be remembered forever.
    I will never forget the news of his sudden death; I sat in my room. and cried for day's.

    This was written about his ongoing battle with depression -- a battle which, unfortunately, ended up taking his life years later. It's entirely changed how I process the song and the impact it has; perhaps moreso because in this video he bears an uncanny resemblance to a dear friend of mine who passed years later.

    what a massive loss, he was so talented, and beloved, good looking, successful, adored, and depression still took him, he had everything anyone could want, prime example of how powerful depression can be. I feel so bad for his family and friends, and also for the music he'll never create, but at least we have the legacy of the gifts he left behind.

I also happen to like Down On The Upside (though I don't remember that being popular with many.) All of the songs off of Audioslave's first album are great too.

    - That's because this song WAS very special to Chris, he had been putting off recording of the song for ages and ages because he was waiting for exactly the right day when he woke up in the morning with the right feeling of darkness just to make sure everything came through exactly how he imagined it.
