Very sad to hear Chris Cornell passed away :( What a shock, was not expecting to wake up to this awful news at all.

There's a haint in the foothills of NC; the haint of the #3 chevy. The rich have formed a holy alliance to exorcise it but they'll never fucking catch him.


It's a dark universe when Eddie Vedder is the last major grunge singer alive.

No one cares, but Pearl Jam and Soundgarden fall under the "alternative rock" category. Not really grunge, like Nirvana.

Chris Cornell (RIP) reminds me of Geoff Tate. Terrific singers but I don't listen to songs for them.

Outshined and Rusty Cage made Road Rash better tho.

Pearl Jam will be the last remaining grunge band just like Paul McCartney will be the last living Beatle for one simple reason: we live in the worst possible time line.

Pete Best will be the last Beatle and some dorks that never made it out of Seattle will live on for a decade longer than pearl jam

No one seems to ever mention "Wide Awake". I love that baseline and guitar solo. Just a high energy track.

wasnt the term grunge coined by fashion designers or music press to describe a way of dressing? like I doubt a bunch of musicians in the pnw sat down at some sort of round table meeting and all decided they were going to call themselves that

black hole sun, especially the verse, is just a loving brilliant piece of music there is so much playing with the key and every note of the melody functions to highlight the unique nature of the chord changes

poo poo just gets called "grunge" though like wtf oh well pretty sure it won a grammy

godspeed chris cornell im just gonna pretend you died whilst jacking even if you didnt

As far as I know, most hangings are done by tying off to a relatively low point and then just kind of laying down and suffocating yourself
