Sound in the Garden

What was your favourite Soundgarden Album/Song?

I have to think about mine.

LivingDeadGirl

My favourite album is Louder Than Love, but unfortunately I don't actually own all of them. I'm sad to say I'm missing their first album Ultramega OK.

As for my favourite song I really don't know, it all depends on my mood. I went through a phase of loving 'Tighter & Tighter' from Down On The Upside. No particular song sticks out for me right now, I love them all.

Great topic by the way, good to know I'm not alone in my love for Soundgarden!

Surrender

Probably a weird one but I'd say Like Suicide on Superunknown

Pyr0

It has to be Louder Than Love for my best album, and for my best song it's Get On The Snake, It makes me feel good

That's a great song, prob my favourite aswell.


Badmotor finger is my favourite album.

gizmo

Not to be cliched or anything but I think of Spoonman as one of their best songs. Either that or Black Hole Sun.

The Walsho

Yeah same as above, Spoonman, or Black Hole Sun.

YeAh!

Spoonman defo!

Patricide

Badmotor finger, and spoonman is unreal, same with blackhole sun. What ever happened to them, like why did they break up?

Pyr0

I think they called it quits because they didn't like all the fame and glory that they received from their fans AFAIK

gizmo

Nah, it was Cornell and Thayil having those infamous "creative differences" that caused tension in the band. There were a few incidents after the release of their last album Down on the Upside and eventually they just called it quits. I don't really know what Thayil has been up to since, last time I heard of him he had done some work for Grohl's Probot album...

Pyr0

I always thought their last album was Superunknown ?

gizmo

Nope, Superunknown was released in '94, then Down on the Upside in '96. They broke up in '97 and at the end of that year the greatest-hit "A-Sides" was released.

Not weird at all, tis my favourite one too.

Hard to choose between Badmotorfinger and Superunknown for an album, but I think Superunknown just gets it for me.

Beer is Life

Not sure about favorite album, but Room A Thousand Years Wide and Black Days are tied for my favorite songs.

The kick in the nuts at the start of RATYW is FANTASTIC! That riff and the scream are so crushing!

Nea

Fav song is tied with Hands All Over and 4th of July
Best album Louder than Love.

Cornell is a god, I hope the new Audioslave album is better than the last one.

Funsterdelux

If we keep things going might get a poll started, Fav Album or Fav. Song?

Funsterdelux

"I caught the moon today
Pick it up
And throw it away all right"

Thats all I have to say right now

LivingDeadGirl

"I got the perfect steal
A cleaner love
With a dirty feel all right"

Didn't they have three eps aswell?

"I'd have to tell,

LivingDeadGirl

That isn't the right line is it?

Giblet

Nope, "A Cleaner Love with a dirty feel" is right.

LivingDeadGirl

Superunknown is wiining?? I thought Badmotorfinger would..........

Pyr0

I would have thought Louder Than Love would be winning

Have to say favourite album superunkown and black hole sun is favourite song at the moment, that said it can swing to suicide depending on my mood.
