@nesfan8 he avoids them, actually gives them dirty looks if the try and follow him, there is a show, a European Festival in Amsterdam, Half way in it became, "this guy is a ass". No one is stealing your riffs buddy.
Yeah I think Rage Against the Machine kind of emulated the vibe from this song for Killing in the Name Of breakdown, though it's obviously different and great on its own merits.
@@cannatacris Grunge was more an attitude and time/space period than an actual genre. It did have some common elements, like the loud-soft thing that Nirvana perfected, the heavy driving riffs that Soundgarded perfected, and the vocal styles and lyrical complexity of all the bands in the genre was definitely unique (Alice in Chains and Pearl Jam stand out for that too). Something about the Northwest really did produce a bunch of dudes with an artistic/sensitive psychology that was particularly well suited to making memorable music! For all the really big names there are probably a dozen bands that were equally interesting but just didn't quite make it.
@@stopthephilosophicalzombie9017 Yeah good point. Nirvana and Alice in Chains really should have nothing to do with each other; Nirvana is punk influenced and Alice comes more from the hair metal influence. Its all about mood and aesthetics.
Damnit what a badass!! Awesome performance!! An infinite sea of mosh pits! I have to admit I'm surprised at how missed Cornell is and how vastly celebrated he is. I deeply regret, and I'm old enough to say this, not catching a show with Soundgarden like this. Those drudgy low tuned guitar tone Thayil and Cornell played were killer!
So sick... He's such an underrated guitarist. Lots of people don't realize how insanely hard it is to do what he's doing, while making it look friggin easy!! It's insane... And Matt Cameron's drumming... damn.
saw them about 7 times in early and mid 90s...shook chris' hand in 94 after the NYR won the cup...i was chanting LETS GO RANGERS and he smiled and come over and shook my hand...and congratulated new york
I did! It was in october 1996 live in Ludwigbsburg (the town I live) Germany. Down on the upside tour.... Spoonman was the first song they played... and I literally felt the earth crumbling under my feet! And after Black Hole Sun... the audience, including myself... cheered the souls out our bodies! What an amazing performance. Best 2 1/2 hours in my life! R.I.P. Chris Cornell! May you rock in heaven now!
There's a woman in the background behind Chris when that guy jumps. Check out her reaction! She's also right next to a guy with a Hitler-style mustache.
Beat me to this comment by two yrs! Complete and utter disregard for his own safety.. Im now 42 and don't know how we survived some of these festivals..
What a dream team. I’m sure it’s been said before but having; Chris, Matt, Kim, and Ben together onstage is magical to me. I Wish I could take a time machine back, and see this show.
I remember watching an interview that discussed the change even in CA at that time. They talked about the hair bands still playing the famous bars there and in strides Jane’s Addiction. Perry Farrell jumping around onstage changing the tone and perception of live music. Wish I could link it here. I remember that shift happening everywhere. But everyone kinda knew it was real when the hair bands in CA hung it up. Nothing against them. It just changed like a quiet nuke.
This is one of the coolest live performances I've ever seen! Cool part is at 2:45. Bass player looks like a cartoon character. Then on the side of the stage there are people watching who look like they might be the bands old school teachers from High School.
I was about 30’ from the stage in between Kim and Chris. I had seen my fair share of mosh pits in Seattle over the past few years but this show is etched in my memory as the King of all pits. Rusty Cage was one of the highlights of the show for sure. The crush was obscene, I remember being lifted off my feet for what seemed like minutes at a time, gasping for air, drenched in sweat and stink. Suddenly a hole would open up, 15 feet across, right in front of me, and the hole would fill with a collision of bodies, and the hole would close. And open, and close. I’ve thought about this phenomenon often, how a crush of bodies can create a hole instantaneously. From where does hole come? Who is deciding to make it? Perhaps quantum physics can explain this phenomenon.
I'm a Grateful Deadhead. They shaped me, and completely changed my life. They are in my heart, my blood, and my soul. They taught me almost everything I know. Through their philosophy I eventually opened up to other music. I am awfully glad that I stumbled upon Soundgarden. I do believe that they are my favorite of the big 4. Now we all know who the big 4 are. And I have grown to love them all to death. I feel the undying devotion. I don't know what else to say. For someone who identifies with the Grateful Dead so heavily, to get into this heavier music. I am indebted to the band Soundgarden, as well as their Seattle contemporaries Nirvana, Alice In Chains, and Pearl Jam. I find many parallels between that scene and the psychedelic scene of the 1960's. I could go on for hours and hours. Write you guys a fuckin book. But I'll end it here, so I can rock out to some more of my boys, that being Soundgarden. Rest in true peace Mr. Chris Cornell. Rest in true peace Mr. Jerry Garcia.
3:39 - that, right fucking there. I hit my adult prime in the early 90s, and that was what a live performance back then was all about - letting it all out with the music that was as real and visceral as your own blood and sweat.
Kim Thayil called that ending groove an "undanceable riff". Upon inspection, it's made up of six-bar phrases - three bars of 3/4, one bar of 5/4, a bar of 3/4 and a bar of 2/4 (3+3+3+5+3+2). How Chris manages to play that and sing at the sime time, I don't know.
Por Dios que afortunados fuimos en los 90s y posteriores de tener bandas de este nivel...Soundgarden,Alice In Chains,Gruntruck, Screaming Trees,Skinyard, Tad, Mudhoney, Mother Love Bone,Temple of The Dog,Tool,etc.
You know the world ain't fair. We lost Chris when he still had plenty of years of music left in him. He had one of the most beautiful voices and was so talented. I'm just glad we got what we got from him while he was still here. You are missed Mr. Cornell! RIP
matt every bit the star chris is. gonna miss this band. heartbroken. chris voice rips through you like noone evermore. so proud to grow up at that time. what a great time
At 3:03 chris rocks right out of his right boot. You can see it still on the stage as he stomps to the microphone. I barely saw this today. ( 4:05 you can still see it too. Lol)
I was so lucky to see them on this tour. I was working my construction job and the radio kept talking about the awesome lineup including Pearl Jam. I couldn’t take it anymore and I dropped my tools and went to the show. I was so bummed out because Pearl Jam played before I got there. But soundgarden absolutely killed followed by ministry.
I have no idea how Chris can play something with that kind of rhythm and sing like a beast at the same time! RIP Chris Cornell!
Max Weisenstein •••You're right. Playing this is very challenging but singing/playing guitar along with it? Incredibly hard.
I know right!
I know right. Check out his acoustic version of outshined in PA. Now that's fucking way crazy.
he works on it a lot until he knows it in and out, that s the way of the champion
Insane ability to play that weird time signature and sing like he does !
That bassist was going crazy
Ben !
Bass is almost on the ground! laying a good groove though
@@kpax45 he nailed his part on the LP, but I don't know about this performance...
Bruh his bass was below his knees
He IS crazy, for real
He's playing the bass at his knees like it ain't no thing. I also love his Frankenstein stomp at the breakdown. Kick ass performance.
No doubt he was feelin it wasn’t he!
Frankenbass
His knees? He’s playing that motherfucker at his shins 😯
That's the coolest bass playing ever!
Killer good!
I’m so happy and blessed to have been apart of this generation.. 90’s for life
I guess Kim's cameraman called in sick that day.
jajajaj
Too common in Soundgarden concerts sadly
@nesfan8 he avoids them, actually gives them dirty looks if the try and follow him, there is a show, a European Festival in Amsterdam, Half way in it became, "this guy is a ass". No one is stealing your riffs buddy.
For a minute, I was thinking that *Kim* called in sick and they had to perform as a power trio...
Too ethnic to show for that period of time
3:02 That bassist has gone into full fledged Frankenstein mode.
hahaa
Lmao
Drugs
Fuckin A lol
With a breakdown that heavy, who wouldn't, honestly...
Breakdown riff is like one of the best riffs ever...rip chris!!
Yes it is!
Yeah I think Rage Against the Machine kind of emulated the vibe from this song for Killing in the Name Of breakdown, though it's obviously different and great on its own merits.
That breakdown is a fucking WMD
Main riff isn't bad either
Sets my nipples on fire every effin time!
Matt Cameron just insanely good. Flow like no other.
3:49 damn
3:49 damn
Sprinko1 Yes he is the most underrated drummer in my opinion
Sprinko1 he sang "Puberty Blues" in "Attack of the Killer Tomatoes".
He is a monster. Great drummer.
Crazy how chris can sing and play that riff at the same time
That's not some voice, that's THE VOICE!!
3:03 lol I do believe Chris lost a shoe 😂 look at the floor right in the moment he raises his foot
Ben Shepherd always played like his soul was leaving his body. Monster bass-player.
The level of musicianship on that stage is off the charts !
Playing all riffs in this song singing at the same time, outstanding!
Most of today’s musicians can’t amount to half of Chris’s talent. RIP!
There's plenty of talent, but the songwriting has become too emo and lame.
Nope. Not the singing half, not the guitar playing half, and ....um, not the songwriting half.
I'm in my late 60s and the dopamine rush from this performance was incredible.
3:39 - that stage dive was awesome; even the chick in the background was amazed :D
Nice catch. Thanks.
holy shit Ben Shepherd
Bring back grunge music.
I thought this was alternative metal
Listen to Kim normal they brought It back
@@Yeast191 grunge is more a label than a real genre haha

At 3:09 the bass player slid up to the following note without hitting the string. Something just badass about that
That's Mr. Ben Shepherd! ¡What a excellent bass player!
Ben's jazz bass tone is damn near perfect.
RIP, Chris. You were a hell of a musician.
Is a hell of musician. Death does nothing to diminish it. 😊
Thankyou for Uploading this " ** GEM**" 👍🤘
1:57 the coolest move ever!!
R.I.P. Chris Cornell, you were one of the best singers in rock history
3:33-3:37
Matt totally is killing it this whole song but right there is gold
No doubt man that’s so terrific ain’t it!
that is pretty crazy , its a tough riff to do and he's singing over the top of playing it , madness.
The breakdown is insane
RIP CORNELL
1:58 sickest
Damnit what a badass!! Awesome performance!! An infinite sea of mosh pits! I have to admit I'm surprised at how missed Cornell is and how vastly celebrated he is. I deeply regret, and I'm old enough to say this, not catching a show with Soundgarden like this. Those drudgy low tuned guitar tone Thayil and Cornell played were killer!
So thankful I got to see them a few years back on the King Animal tour ! They were awesome as ever and Chris absolutely killed it
I hate that I didn’t get to see them
2:43 = LEGENDARY moment
Rest in Peace Chris, thanks for the music \m/
this dude just sang like a god while playing a repeating lick @204 bpm. i mean that is just talent in excess
So sick... He's such an underrated guitarist. Lots of people don't realize how insanely hard it is to do what he's doing, while making it look friggin easy!! It's insane... And Matt Cameron's drumming... damn.
Who had the honor to watch this band live? I call myself lucky cause i did.... R.I.P. Chris
sandspider Saw them for the first and last time 2 weeks ago at Fort Rock. I feel very thankful.
YOU ARE VERY LUCKY!
saw them about 7 times in early and mid 90s...shook chris' hand in 94 after the NYR won the cup...i was chanting LETS GO RANGERS and he smiled and come over and shook my hand...and congratulated new york

I saw them in 1992, Lollapalooza, Jones Beach NY. I remember they played Outshined, I was completely blown away.
This is the way I will always remember Chris.
hahahhaha 3:40 when the guy jumps across the shot
Lol
There's a woman in the background behind Chris when that guy jumps. Check out her reaction! She's also right next to a guy with a Hitler-style mustache.
talk about good timing
@@jgfunk think that looks like his wife Susan
Beat me to this comment by two yrs! Complete and utter disregard for his own safety.. Im now 42 and don't know how we survived some of these festivals..
Es duo de guitarras es letal la bateria una bestia y el bajo una locura una banda demasiado espectacular
What a dream team. I’m sure it’s been said before but having; Chris, Matt, Kim, and Ben together onstage is magical to me. I Wish I could take a time machine back, and see this show.
A band full of awesome maniacs
Best rusty Cage Live performance.
Here we are 30 years later and still kicking ass, ill be back in 30 years and tell ya its still kicking ass!
One of The Best moments to ever be created in the history of music,
And simply created, Period
#LoudLove 🤘🏼
RIP Our Legend CC 🖤
Chris Cornel [ 🙏] One Of The Greatest Vocalists Ever.
Such a badass song
At this Time Grunge Moved in and Hair Rock was Dead
I wouldnt say it was like night and day. You look at bands like Alice In Chains that combine both. Bands like Tesla can still pack stadiums.
And I’m still thankful for that
I remember watching an interview that discussed the change even in CA at that time. They talked about the hair bands still playing the famous bars there and in strides Jane’s Addiction.

The only thing missing is more Kim footage
Who else had goosebumps the whole tune?
Play and sing this... mastery. Ben on the bass is awesome here 😊

I was in damn near the same spot! What an awesome experience!!!
I was right there too. EPIC DAY
OMG I can't believe he played and sang that ...very tricky....what a great band and incredible performance....

You should try listening to Stone Temple Pilots, especially Purple and Tiny Music. If you're also into Zepellin you'll love them.
Ben Sheppard looks like he's got wooden legs at 3.00 😂 love it x
Man! Those were the days!!!!!
Loving this performance I’ve not ever seen anyone play the bass hanging that low but he owns it the whole band does. Loud Love Chris Cornell 🌹🌹
I wish I was alive back then to witness this masterpiece
Very full metal song from top to bottom. Reminds us of the importance of being strong and persistent in overcoming our weaknesses
I've never seen anybody play bass like that
The one and only
The Spirit of early nineties ⚡️that Beautiful Chaos
Love that Bass Playing.🤘🤘🤘🤘
Mastery of everything....
This had so many classic rock callbacks, but I remember it still seemed unbelievably new and different when it came out...
Chris is badass, his voice matured to be perfection in later age
Holy shit😮❤❤❤I love him.
Far, far ahead of their time,ladies & gents,once in a lifetime Soundfuckingarden!!
Apparently the people that shot this video forgot Kim Thayil is in the band.
90s Led Zeppelin

God the early 90s we're great.
He was the best at playing/singing at the same time
Commenting again, to teach the algorithm to show this to young people. The 90s were just......perfect.
That was an amazing show. The whole thing kicked ass. MINISTRY destroyed my hearing that day.
Kim Thayil called that ending groove an "undanceable riff". Upon inspection, it's made up of six-bar phrases - three bars of 3/4, one bar of 5/4, a bar of 3/4 and a bar of 2/4 (3+3+3+5+3+2).

I do like matts pacing so much.. especially this song has so much drive from out the drums , unreal
Matt Cameron is the fucking lord of drummers
You know the world ain't fair. We lost Chris when he still had plenty of years of music left in him. He had one of the most beautiful voices and was so talented. I'm just glad we got what we got from him while he was still here. You are missed Mr. Cornell! RIP

Playing Rusty Cage while singing is insanely difficult… this is fucking impressive
This song is so fucking awesome
Literally every section of the band form chris to ben to matt and kim kicks ass
92 was the best Lollapalooza of all, when everything changed and grunge peaked
Ben Shepherd is so cool
What a fucking voice! RIP Chris Cornell!
2:46 - 3:05 The always famous Chris Cornell stomp! ❤
At 3:03 chris rocks right out of his right boot. You can see it still on the stage as he stomps to the microphone. I barely saw this today. ( 4:05 you can still see it too. Lol)
@@jaredpilone1790 I´ve never noticed that. Thanks for pointing it out. Oh, Chris 😂
The bassman this incorpored, amazing!
RIP Chris Cornell. You will definitely be missed:(
This band was a fucking phenom
Chris will be missed forever
That Bassist made love to all those people’s ears that day, dude is going hard and RAW
I was at the last soungarden show long live grunge
Grunge will never die!!!!
I personally believe that soundgarden fucking rocked ass at this specific concert. one of their best live performances for sure
These are the most ultimate bass moves
@slipshaft yes! One of the best singers of all time AND he nails guitar.
Saw this tour at Montage Mountain in Pennsylvania. Glad I saw one of the greats at their peak!
I was so lucky to see them on this tour. I was working my construction job and the radio kept talking about the awesome lineup including Pearl Jam. I couldn’t take it anymore and I dropped my tools and went to the show. I was so bummed out because Pearl Jam played before I got there. But soundgarden absolutely killed followed by ministry.
i saw them the month before that, 1st band i ever saw live.
Chris was multi talented and by far the most amazing an influential musician of my time
This is absolutely incredible
