naw some grunge bands are good (like soundgarden and nirvana, who was beatles-level good) and some are total landfill garbage (like pearl jam)

:shrug: kurt cobain cited the beatles as a big influence and that one nirvana song about a girl sounds exactly like a beatles song and all his other melodies were brilliant

Look Viking you're a trash Trump supporter what the fuck makes you think you can have an avatar that isn't what I decide? Shut your fucking trap and go away. Your trolling is tiresome and just shits up the forum.
At least Soundgarden can just slot his little brother in, who sounds just like him.

Seriously, it's uncanny.

Pretty bummed, I liked Soundgarden quite a bit, especially when they got weirder towards the end of their 90s run. Even the new album has a couple of cool riffs. I don't listen to any of it, except when it shows up in a huge playlist or something, but hey, it was there and I didn't hate it.

I kinda liked Soundgarden. It was one of the few saving graces when listening to the radio as a kid because it seemed raw and unprocessed unlike half the poo poo they played at the time. Most people said Chris was a real loving douche bag though.

Ya sad, but also hardfucking core for your last song to be "in my time of dying" and then to kill yourself.

I have never listened to Soundgarden but Audioslave rules mad hard and all the haters can get fukt. I'm gonna listen to Audioslave all day and hoarsely croon at my cat.

You can barely hear the spoons in that song. Needs louder spoons.

Really though this is sad, and I had fond memories growing up with my sister listening to Soundgarden a ton.
