    I LOVE Soundgarden...they are one of those "life changing" bands for me.
    It makes perfect sense...until you think about it.

    I suspect there's logic behind the madness, but I'm too dumb to see it.

    I'll be playing a whole bunch of Cornell for a while. RIP. This is a huge punch in the gut for me.

    this is playing on local radio right now.

    Unreal talent. This hurts almost as much as cobain 20+ yrs ago, sawe Soundgarden in 1989 at the OffRamp and I was hooked. The show I saw at the Paramount after badmotorfinger was top 5 all time. And dude would snowboard our local hill occasionally in a pink fartbag.

    R.I.P., I have a few tears right now.
    Move upside and let the man go through...

    I'm bummed. Probably one of my favorite bands and singers. Saw them many times, first time was at the I-Beam in SF and they opened for Faith No More. I was hooked after that. Shows at SJSU Event Center and Henry J Kaiser in Oakland for Superunknown and Down on the Upside respectively. Two of the heaviest shows I've ever been to, so much energy.

    Cornell always seemed like a troubled guy.

    Always liked Soundgarden. My kids weren't into it. I guess they made grunge that was palatable to aging hipsters. My kids were into shit like Nelly and rap.

    ^^^^Damn, I hope that was not the cause of his death. Loved the guy and was really shocked to hear he had passed at such a young age.

    I was at that SJSU show(& probably HJK playing the odds), Oakland Stadium with Metallica and a handful of others. Remember at SJ show there was no encore, they just turned around and left the stage. It was the first I had seen anything like it so was taken aback. But it kinda made sense too. So good live. Badmotorfinger and Superunknown were pivotal albums for me growing up.

    Superunknown was the first non-U2 album I owned as a teenager in the mid-90's. It really helped open up my taste in music. Still one of my favorite albums.
    Two nights ago I was painting walls in my basement while rocking out to my Soundgarden collection. The collection is cranked back up today.

    RIP Chris Cornell. I was a little shocked to hear that today. i saw Soundgarden in the early 90s opening for Voivod. I had no idea who they were, but they were LOUD AF. Saw them again Lollapalooza 92. Blown away again. Still my favorite Soundgarden song:
