I honestly don't even LIKE Matt's drumming in Pearl Jam. He's got zero feel for their original songs, especially the ones they made before him. Pearl Jam has an insane groove that was lost after Dave Krusen and Dave Abrusseze. Matt is EXCELLENT in Soundgarden (and extremely innovative with his beats), that is where he fits IMO. I think he's serviceful, but kind of awful in Pearl Jam. He makes no attempt to play their original songs the way they are supposed to be and the live experience lacks because of that.

As big as Soundgarden got I think they were under appreciated in the shadow of PJ and Nirvana. SG were around long before those bands but never really hit huge until 92 and especially 94. I still think they were the best band out of Seattle dating all the way back to the mid 80's. Cornell's ability to write pop hooks is equally as potent as someone like Cobain but Cornell did it with more than just power chords over a distortion box. Cameron and Shepherd wrote awesome riffs straight from left field and Thayil brought some great doom laden heaviness. That band was/is a collective with all parts bringing something great to the table. They were more inventive than any of the other bands, great bands too. They fucked with tunings, time signatures, polyrhythms, arrangements, riffing, and came out with something that can only be the mighty Soundgarden.

I think someone who knows and listens to soundgarden also knows their contributions to other seattle rock bands and wouldn't underestimate them.Those bands were all connected to each other actually, especially pearl jam and soundgarden.. you know the story. But when it comes to Nirvana..yeah they were, i dont want to say overrated, but they were in the foreground definitely. But you can't deny that nirvana kinda pulled attention towards Seattle which is a good thing for other bands.I dont know, i love 90's and i'm just glad that all these people exist. I hate comparing those bands because they are all like a family that i always want to be a part of. Also one more thing, i wouldn't say pearl jam overshadowed soundgarden. They're equally underrated bands if you ask me.

He's a big inspiration to me as a musician, and he's one of the nicest guys I've ever met, so down to earth and he took the time to sign my Vinyls and take a picture. It was an amazing experience getting to meet him. We chatted for a good 20 minutes. Last year I flew down to Toronto to see Soundgarden , and it was hands down one of the best live performances I have ever seen.

throughout all the grunge period, Soundgarden was it. Tight skills and really the best "grunge" sounds. Love these guys. Everytime I've seen them live, excellent. RIP CC

It's hard to express fully how I feel about this band and what have they brought to my life... but I can say for certain they changed my life. My classmate brought me their "Superunknown" back in the day, 10+ years ago now. And to be honest I didn't quite catch it "right on", it was a struggle. Some songs I liked, some I skipped intentionally. But now when I'm almost 30 I listen to the album and realize how much I love it. And nostalgia has nothing to do with it. It's the quality of the material, the diversity of writing and rhythm approaching, everything. Chris did a lot of beautiful stuff apart from Soundgarden (Audioslave for instance is also one of my most favourites), but this particular record speaks to me like nothing else. I don't know how to say this, but I think I should, cause there's a chance this happened not with me only. I've been listening to this album nonstop for the past few weeks. Everywhere - my iPhone, at home on my iMac, at work on a laptop with some speakers, literally everywhere. Enjoying and thinking about all I have said above... and then I wake up to the news of Chris' passing. It shocked me, it still does. This will take time to think over and live on, but now it is a wound for me, definitely... So, to all the people who read this and feel the same - hang on and may all of us find peace and may Chris rest, which he deserved by leaving the incredible heritage of art in music. Thank you

It's my favourite song full stop. Superunknown also happens to be my favourite album, and SG my favourite band. But Head Down-that's my song. Nothing's ever resonated more accurately, the sound of life, to me. My life, sure. But mainly just...life. Chris's dual vocal personas-protagonist and antagonist: the cold, disembodied, cruel, thin, alien, manipulator. The Tormentor. Impassive; Impenetrable. "We see you smile, we turn your head, then we slap your face. BOW DOWN, BOW DOWN, BOW DOWN TO LIVE YOUR LIFE." So be it. The human response: indomitable will to survive. Tormented. Bowed. Silenced. Stultified. *Alive* A mote, invisible, not even a speck, beneath the oppressive, choking, seemingly permanent abyssal winter gloom. Weathering the storm. Conserving, harbouring, protecting. A lightless glint in the eye, a slightly upturned corner of the mouth. Occulted. For now. Eventually, a spine unfurled, a breath of air, drawn deep into the lungs and held: firmament for the chest & back. Two glinting, shining eyes. A half-smile, no longer hidden. A head held high-exhultant. Like my favourite Soundgarden song :)

Soundgarden's music touched my heart, it gave my life a soundtrack. I hope it does the same for future generations. It's not just dark pessimistic grunge. It's beautiful hard rock in the same way of Zeppelin and Sabbath.

I always forget how much Kim influenced my guit playing. Love that dude.

it's just awful that there will never be more SG music. I love these guys. My condolences to all who loved Chris. We miss him so much.

RIP Chris Cornell 😢

"We really created some piece of music that I think will be around for a long time" indeed my man, the legacy of Chris and Soundgarden still lives on. Thanks for the awesome and beautiful music.

Super Unknown and down on the upside are my two favorite albums, ever, and both by the same band, absolutely incredible !

Not much of a Soundgarden fan, but I give Kim Thayil credit for keeping track of all those alternate tunings he uses and when to use them at the right time so he doesn't accidentally grab the wrong-tuned guitar. Also, tuning all the strings to E on "Mind Riot" is quite a novel idea.

All 4 members wrote with weird tunings. Chris is the one who wrote mind riot in that tuning.

I'm sure he'd thank you for that. It will probably mean alot coming from someone of your stature in a money making music industry. Are you going to sign him?

I met them in Seattle and spent time with them. All very sincere. All very talented. My one and ONLY listenable "grunge" band, besides the screaming trees

R.I.P. CHRIS.. we know you were taken from the world...🙌💔

we lost another great artist one of my absolute favorites​. gone way too soon. R.I.P Chris Cornell

I came here hoping to see footage of the band wandering into Guitar Center and playing guitars. This was nice.

Speaking of “wandering” there was an episode of a talk show called Lex and Terry where Chris was the guest one day on the show, and he was late coming into the studio, so the producer went looking for him and saw Chris casually wandering the hallways like a normal dude. They’ve interviewed rock stars of all walks and said Chris was just that… a normal dude, and they loved that about him.

Hats off to whoever shot this video. The cinematography is amazing.

Superunknown has a special place in my heart. Takes me back to my youth and good memories

4 incredible musicians, one of the greatest bands of all time. Thank you so much Chris Cornell for inspiring me as a singer, songwriter, and guitar player. I saw SG last year at Carolina Rebellion, 2 weeks before CC died and it is a show I will forever be grateful for.

I love this band so much.

Epic Band! The music will be timeless.

I was always an admirer of Soundgarden. It wasn't until I saw them live that the music really came alive. I am still so disappointed he is no longer with us.

RIP Chris Cornell. You helped get me into music, man. The first time I heard this record I knew immediately that I was a heavy music fan and I have carried that with me until today and will continue to carry it as long as I'm alive. Thank you for all you've done, and rest in power my friend.

Ben Shepherd, I love you.

4:20 - I don't know what that is... but I sure as hell know its a Kim and his purple Ibanez chorus pedal. fucking brilliant. the cornerstone of so many good SG songs

I love that sound, Cobain used this also on their shows in 91/92 (and I dont' mean the chorus pedal in SLTS or CAYA ;) )

God I miss these guys... I have been a fan since the 90s and finally I got to see them last year 2017 at Rockville... Best damn gig I have seen, and I've seen many... Of course that was just a temporary glow as we all know what happened shortly after that... RIP Chris, and thanks for the memories and the legendary music!

Music is the fuel for our souls. Thank you for this video ❤️❤️❤️ Chris Cornell, I never realized how much space you occupied in me until you were gone. Thank you for your music, lyrics and career. You were such an amazing looking guy too. So sad you're gone, but you'll be in our hearts and minds forever.

Soundgarden is timeless

rest in peace chris, you were and still are a legend!

Very cool guys. Thankful for their powerful music. Chris was incredibly talented, may he never be forgotten.

Its amazing how the bands music takes you to another world when you listen to it. Chris was truly a gift from the gods, along with all the other musicians we lost and the ones that we still have. This music has gotten me through some tough times and i truly cannot thank them enough for all theyve done for me

Matt Cameron is a killer drummer. I hated him with Pearl Jam because Pearl Jam totally held him back. His place is in Soundgarden.

I'm a geologist, paleoclimatologist to be exact. I've loved Soundgarden since 1991 (Temple of the Dog) and it only recently occurred to me that this band's appeal is how cerebral their songs are, how cerebral the band members are. This is higher brow rock than most. These are articulate, educated, well-read intelligent ass-kickers. If you love this band because you find them relatable in that regard, FISTS UP!

I too am a fan on Soundgarden AND Randall Carlson. And a former geologist.

Your music will be around forever, Chris, and you will be missed forever. Thanks for all the great songs, which were like a soundtrack to my youth.

WOW!!!! This the greatest interview session EVER, like EVER out of everything

Legends.

R.I.P now Chris - a voice of a generation

For how heavy these guys play this was a really enjoyable and relaxing vid to watch. Love getting behind the musick like this.

they're an incredible band, all 4 are amazing musicians and great songwriters, and of course chris cornells incredible vocals and songwriting take them over the top, RIP chris!

Is it just me or is Kim's tone at 9:35 better than the actual recording

RIP Chris. All my heroes are dead!

One of the most underrated bands in music history & easily the best thing from the grunge era!! The real difference is Cornell. As a single writer/singer/musician he’s just a giant & one of the greatest to ever do it!

RIP Chris. You're one of the reasons I picked up the guitar. I can't thank you enough for the memories and the stories. You'll be missed.
