Why did Soundgarden break up?

chrisopalooza

being in a band for 12 years is not something that just happens...it's hard work. and when all members are zeppelin-like musicians, it gets even more complicated. they all just got on each other's nerves.

sucks though because audioslave is so god awful -- i wish chris would at least go work on solo stuff and not make midtempo half-ass anthems.

tom morello is a stuck up dipshit.
cornell deserves a better band.

yes. i don't know if tom is stuck up, but he is unbelivably overated. horrible song writer. HORRIBLE.

Kim Thayil what happened to him?

He played a a couple of songs with Alice In Chains the other night. He looked good, sounded good. I was really happy to see him at the show.

probably because chris cornell's annoying ass voice was pissing everyone off. that guy makes me cringe. except on black hole sun. that's about all i can stand.

Cornell is one of the best singers in rock music history.

Next to Buckley, Plant, Vedder, Hoon, etc.



I like Audioslave a lot (and RATM for that matter) but neither compare to Soundgarden.

still making great music though.

And Cornell's live show is turning back around,... no more smoking and drinking... he sounds AMAZING now.

We always see eye on to eye on quite a few things...especially when it comes to this subject. You are awesome my friend. Preaching to the choir.

(by the way, DUSTY just came on my Itunes shuffle :eek: Totally tripped out by your SG quote there.;) )

As far as why did the MIGHTY, UNTOUCHABLE SOUNDGARDEN break up? This is a really good read too, the badass KIM breaks it down...

My friend and I have been saying this for the past two years. It really sucks that he didn't continue making music. The man was probably one of the greatest guitarists ever and had the ability to do some amazing shit on that guitar.

"and have no less than three more albums worth of covers, b-sides, songs from movie soundtracks, and unreleased materials scheduled for release through the year 2000".

It's 2006 where the fuck is this for christ sake?, I want to buy it:(

well i'm a bit older than you and i agree. i don't think i'm biased.


the original drummer for soundgarden was actually chris cornell.
he did vox as well(duh!), but then they decided to add scott sundquist, so all chris had to do was sing. matt joined in 86 i believe. at he time he was with skin yard. sheperd came on board after the recording of louder than love after hiro left just before it's release. in between them briefly, jason everman played bass.

Gracias, that's the stuff I was missing. I think I read it maybe one time a while ago.
