- I did a video of Soundgarden riffs a couple of years ago, but I wanted to have another go at it as I've had some different guitars since then. Also these riffs will never not be fun and cool to play.

Kim Thayil is a beast and super underrated. Really Sabbath sounding licks - and of course, RIP Chris Cornell
Massively underrated. Along with Larry Lalonde
Great player. But Chris wrote 11/17 riffs played on this video. But I love Kim’s guitar playing and that unmistakable eastern touch.
11 riffs written/co-written by Chris, 2 by Matt, 2 by Ben and 5 by Kim. It’s time that people start paying respect to Chris as a riff writing machine that he was. People unknowingly credit Kim with most of the riffs and songwriting but whole band, especially Chris deserves all the Flowers.
Exactly. Kim is awesome, but the overwhelming majority of Soundgarden’s iconic riffs were written by Chris. Chris was quietly a badass guitar player.
most people that listen to soundgarden dont even know anyones name except for chris lol
4th Of July is also really good. Probably one of the heaviest riffs I've ever listened too.
4th of July intro is heavier than a black hole
Tunings:
Let Me Drown: Drop D
Pretty Noose: CGCGGE
Spoonman: Drop D
Mailman: CGDGBE
Black Hole Sun: Drop D
Loud Love: E Standard

thats wild
Great job on the alternative tunings
Tuning diversity😀 SG and Sonic Youth use them all😊
I read somewhere that BHS is not only in drop d but also a quarter note more
Fantastic 🙌 Batmotorfinger and Superunknown are spectacular albums
Thanks. They are indeed!
where's 4th of july.......
My favorite Soundgarden song
limo wreck, 4th of july, and room a thousand years wide have the heaviest soundgarden riffs i love
My favorite band, Soundgarden
Not a big Soundgarden fan personally; but I’d be stupid to not say these riffs are badass.
They were all about the riffs. Kim Thayil hugely underrated.
Also worth noting they were on Subpop before Nivana or even Mudhoney iirc.
Why not??
Took me a while with SG too, i’d say watch their Pinkpop 92, then it allllll clicked for me.
Yeah, that would be stupid of you lol
Soundgarden have one of those sounds thats just great to play as loud as you can
Also rusty cage is up there as my favorite riffs
Soundgarden have a special place in my heart, this mix of heavy Black Sabbath-ness and weird riffs/solos. Cool that you included Been Away, I never heard anybody praise their final record but I still think it has some good tracks and still captures the unique Soundgarden weirdness.
Outshined goes so hard
Love that you had King Animal in there that's under appreciated
All amazing, I would add Somewhere, Holy Water, Black Rain, Limo Wreck and Zero Chance (this last one has one of the best sounding intros I've ever heard).
P.s: It is said that Bloxsy is still retuning his guitars after finishing this video.
Yes! Limo Wreck! The second half of Superunknown from Limo Wreck on is so good! Great to chill out to
I was really hoping for arguably their heaviest one ever Fourth of July, but these were great! 💯
Thanks. Yeah it’s one of my favourites, I didn’t want to put too many from Superunknown though
I loved these! Flower in particular is a super underrated song tbh
Oh, Spoonman!
I often think I know a band, and then only recognize one or two of the songs.
💛💛💛
Nice. Well played as always and good choices.
Nailed the tones !! Nice 👌
another fantastic video! these riffs are not easy....well done!
Thank you! Yes some of them can be quite tricky
Fantastic altogether ❤
good work man
No 4th of July?
Amazing! I missed Gun, though. That riff was really cool.
Oh hell yeah. Nice choices and well played
Thank you.
If possible could you do more down on the upside riffs. Favorite Soundgarden album.
Yeah I need to explore that album more.
Kim and Chris came up with so many killer riffs and used a lot of weird tunings you wouldn’t expect to hear in a rock band but made it work so well, I’m honestly surprised that 4th of July didn’t make it on here either since that’s definitely one of their best riffs imo but I also understand that you’re always gonna miss some. Great job as always, man
Thanks dude. Don't forget Matt Cameron for Room A Thousand Years Wide, think he wrote the riff for Birth Ritual too. Also 4th of July is just an awesome song too.
@@bloxsy_ I didn't actually know he wrote them, that's really cool
Awesome riffs
Pretty Noose sounds so ridiculously badass.
man they have some great songs!
Good shit, man!!!
Thanks man. Really appreciate it.
Rusty Cage has even more sick riffs than just that main one.
Hi bloxsy,good afternoon,congratulations by your video,as always,cheers and have a nice weekend for you!!!!!!!
Thanks! You too!
@@bloxsy_,you're welcome as always!!!!
Beautiful. You can really hear the Sabbath influence when the lick is solo.
Amazed that you were able to get such a grungy tone out of that tele
The bridge pickup has a lot of output
Awesome!
If I had spider fingers like this dude I’d still be playing the guitar.
i miss bloxsy's singing covers
yeah man we miss your beautiful voice
i agree with theses two different ppl 👍
All Soundgarden riffs are Godlike!
Yeah and there are so many others too
#soundgarden4ever!!!!!!!
Hipnotizado..superb..👏👏
Rusty cage always reminds me of the ps one game road rash
I'm not a Les Paul guy but I daydreamed either today or yesterday about how fucking COOL it would look to play Soundgarden riffs on a black Les Paul. The answer? VERY fucking cool!!
Btw! Check out Kim Thayil's interview with guitar center and on the 500 Pod for some great interviews, the latter he talks about the making of Superunknown and so much more
I’ll check that out. Thanks!
Tremendos riffs la csm
Loud Love was such an awesome song.
Great job....these rock. But we need 4th of July and Limo Wreck to be added.
Skid Row, Pantera, Helmet, Steve Albini, more riffssss
Incessant mace es muy wenaaa
Should’ve played the bridge riff from Jesus Christ pose
Soundgarden is very underrated in my opinion never talked about compared to AIC and Nirvana. Chris Cornell was the grunge James Brown
Glad you did this video or is this a reupload from 3 years ago. Either way kudos to you.
Thanks. No it's a completely new video of Soundgarden riffs recorded again.
Only "Loud Love" off Louder Than Love? 😢
Damn, I'm a huge SG fan and I haven't learned how to play half these riffs
Hunted down❤❤
Head down❤❤
Rhinosaur❤❤
i missed to Blind Dogs, but discovered two new for me their songs)
Like deployed 👍
😎🎸✅️
Let me drown doesn’t get enough love
Great video as always, even if I don't really know Soubdgarden.
By the way, have you done a video on Muse riffs? I seem to remember seeing one a long time ago but I can't find it, so I'm probably mistaken. (You can take that as a request lol)
I never did one for Muse, it would be quite interesting to do as I don't really know many Muse songs. Could broaden my horizons a bit. Any particular favourites?
@@bloxsy_ I think the two most recognisable Muse riffs would be "Plug in Baby" and the bass riff off "Hysteria". Their strongest riffs IMO are off the albums The 2nd Law and Drones, but hidden gems can be found from "Sober" to "Kill or Be Killed". I can get back to you with something more substantial after I give them a listen to jog my memory; I'm currently mired in Feeder and Nothing but Thieves (as well as some guilty pleasures) lol
Edit: contrast is beautiful, and "Panic Station" contrasts well with, I don't know, "Unintended". Or anything, really. "Panic Station" is so 2012, "funk-inspired", sassy stuff. I love it.
😍😍😍😍
Amazing job bro! What guitar is that?
Thanks dude. It’s a Vintage V100
The tunings? can you list them... please, there are so many.
Dude pls share how you dialed in the tone 🙏
Do Audioslave and RATM soon plz
Do you use a fuzz or distortion? Love these riffs!
I'm using a fuzz on the Boss Katana but only slightly.
4th of July wouldve been kick ass
Shellac riffs please 🙏 in honor of Steve Albini
Just heard the news. So sad.
It's ok to use your pinky, I promise. As a matter of fact, I *pinky* promise.
Kim Thayil to me is the Tony Iommi of the 90's. Not a technical freak but just a total riff master with great feel and tone.
please do one of Korn riffs
I think I need a 7 string for that, if I ever get one I’ll try.
@@bloxsy_ here to stay, thoughtless and harder are one of the best riffs by them, and they have so many albums
Needs some tabs great songs
I'm really surprised that you know songs like flower or hunted down A lot of people only know the superunknown and their latest album
Yeah I was tempted to do a whole video of early Soundgarden riffs, they have lots on the first couple of albums and Eps
Is this an Epiphone LP?
It's a Vintage V100
feels extremely weird to hear isolated jesus christ pose riff without bass
BLACK RAIN???
Weird. I had Black Rain in my head for no reason then I saw this comment.
dude you forgot Down in a Hole?
Isn't that an Alice In Chains song?
@@bloxsy_ yup. Just trolling 😄
Oh okay 😄
hate soundgarden but love ur plaiyng lol
That’s interesting, I’ve never heard anyone say they hate them. Thank you, I appreciate it.
drums? bass? we aren't seeing the entire picture, wasted potential
