While 'Superunknown' was the album, that REALLY made Soundgarden a household name in the mainstream, I personally still feel 'Badmotorfinger' is their best album; in fact it might just be my favorite grunge album all together.. 🤔
Badmotorfinger is my favourite album, but if I'm being honest, from a songwriting, vocal, atmosphere and production standpoint, Superunknown is untoppable, its a masterpiece of an album. I'd still rather listen to BMF though :)
Hey Kira, come to think of it, when I first heard Jesus Christ pose, I honestly felt a bit frightened. But, something kept drawing me back. It ended up being my favorite song. But, I know what you mean!
To be fair, your patrons DID select the "softest" tracks off of Superunknown and Down On The Upside. I think there's alot off Superunknown you'll love and Down On The Upside has quite a few gems(and it probably has the most tracks of any of their albums; it really goes all over ghe place).
Badmotorfinger is their best album in my opinion and a real classic. I also really like 'Louder Than Love', it was my first Soundgarden experience and the whole album blew my mind. Superunknown is fairly good, but a bit more tame and mainstream, it doesn't hit the spot for me like Badmotorfinger.
I first heard Soundgarden with Louder Than Love, and then Jesus Christ Pose came along and blew my mind (I first heard it along with the official video). I was all in, this was THE song that set them apart from the pack.
So many more great songs. Slaves and Bulldozers, Spoonman, My Wave, Superunknown, Pretty Noose, Burden in My Hand and Black Hole Sun. Their sound is so varied over the years. My Fav songs are Outshined, Spoonman, and Burden in My Hand. Superunknown is their most varied album. It is less heavy that Badmotorfinger. Spoonman and My Wave are great heavier songs on Superunknown. The last 2 choices would not have been my first picks for these 2 albums, but they are great songs. Fell on Black Days was a big hit single but softer. Black Hole Sun is one of the biggest rock songs of the 90s but not one of my favs. It was so popular that a lot of people couldn't even name another Soundgarden song. It is a shame as they have lots of great songs. Badmotorfinger is too heavy for the casual grunge fan. It is more hard rock.
Lived through the grunge era. Soundgarden was always my favorite. Especially Louder Than Love. We were listening to that before the whole scene took off. Just brings back good memories.
Soundgarden's debut album is entitled: Ultramega O.K. [released in: 1988]; Their sophomore release was: Louder Than Love [1989] (Saw them 4 times on different legs of this tour) Badmotorfinger was their 3rd album [released in 1991]. ....
'Superunknown' '94 by Soundgarden is my favorite album from seattle grunge! If you want to hear glamorous combination of '90-s grungie alt' rock with trip-hop - listen to PJ Harvey masterpiece 'Is This Desire?' '98 album.
Glad youre reviewing these tracks! Now i have to go listen to my other lesser-known favorites off Badmotorfinger, Searching With My Good Eye Closed and Room a Thousand Years Wide.
Chris Cornell's lyrics don't get overshadowed by his amazing voice. He's one of the best overall songwriters of the 80s and 90s. Given Chris's demise these songs hit me right in the feels even 30 yrs later.
There's a really great accoustic version of Blow Up The Outside World that was put on RUclips on the Garden Of Sound channel in 2013. Highly recommend it.
As most of the commentators mentioned, slaves & bulldozers. Also beyond the wheel, searching with my good eye closed, room a thousand years wide and their totally underrated title track superunknown with its charmful windows 95 video clip :D 2 of them "up tempo", 2 extremely slow ones and 1 inbetween equal 5 more times enjoying the one and only chris and the band at their best : )
I would definitely go back and hit Flower, Loud Love, Hands All Over, and Slaves and Bulldozers- a little more raw & grungy, and Cornell’s scream was at its peak. Also definitely should hit Temple of the Dog- Hunger Strike for some Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder goodness!
I still like the early stuff from Soundgarden the most (though they stayed great up until the end), "Loud Love" is my alltime favourite record. But Jesus Christ Pose is my favourite single song from them nontheless. That driving and busy tom-groove together with the spiralling hypnotic main riff is just outstanding.
Pretty Noose, Holy Water, Burden in my hand, Just like suicide, The day i tried to live, 4th of July, New Damage, My Wave, Mind Riot, Hands all over, Black Rain. The Badmotorfinger album was more genuine grunge, whereas the Superunknown album was a lot more commercial but still good.
Hey Kira! If you are going to dwelve into death metal, here are my humble options: - Flesh and the Power it Holds, by Death - Heartwork, by Carcass - Hammer Smashed Face, by Cannibal Corpse Cheers!! :)
If you drums should check out Like Suicide off of SuperUnknown. Hoooooo Matt goes OFF on that song coupled with Kim doing a gorgeous gorgeous guitar solo. Tighter And Tighter off of Down On The Upside is a hidden gem as well…It’s haunting now after Chris is gone. Probably my favorite Soundgarden song.
My favourites of Soundgarden are from Superunknown. Interestingly these songs are some of the least listened to songs on Spotify. 6. Head Down. 9. Limo Wreck. 13. 4th Of July.
Soundgarden and Alice In Chains are so much more than grunge. I would actually call them more metal. Ben Shepherd's bass kills it. So does the drumming by Matt Cameron. Kim Thayil are a great guitarist.
This album brings me back in time. Teenager, going to free shows of all the local bands. Buying all kinds of new music, Melvin's, or Screaming Trees or My Sister's Machine or Gruntruck
Everything Chris Cornell has been involved with is worth a deep dive...Soundgarden, Temple of the Dog, Audioslave, his solo stuff (Euphotia Morning especially), hell even his guest spots with other artists, like Right Turn with AIC and Stolen Prayer with Alice Cooper...maybe avoid his solo album Scream though...
Always nice to see Soundgarden getting some appreciation from a young'un. :) Yes, JesusChristPose does tend to give the listener anxiety! LOL BlowUpTheOutsideWorld swings between being a Beatles-being-introspective thing & the lads smashing out a thumping rock track. The whole "Down on the upside" album is easier to appreciate with more years on you - try it again a decade or two from now. ;) If you're preferring the energy of the "Badmotorfinger" tracks, I should probabaly suggest you listen thru the "Louder Than Love" album from '89, & the full "Badmotorfinger" album. Even "Superunknown" from '94 is quite "grown -up" compared to LTL & Badmo.... altho it's widely accepted as their best work. Hope this helps. :)
Hey Kira i dig your video's, such good taste in music! I was checking out the list of classic 70's bands you reacted to and noticed you reacted to some Rainbow songs and was wondering if you've heard the song Death alley driver by Rainbow..? I'ts not Dio singing but this might be my favorite Rainbow song. I think you will have the greatest reaction and on the hip hop side if you've doven into J Dilla's stuff.. the man behind so many iconic artists sound. It's great to see another young person loving the history. I can remember when I discovered a lot of the artists you've reacted to and how much it influenced me and the music I've made it's cool watching someone show so much appreciation. Great energy! I hope life is and stays great for you.
29:09 - if you want the energy then the big tracks from their later albums are MY WAVE (a huge hit), SUPERUNKNOWN (the title track of the album) and PRETTY NOOSE from the other album. But yeah Soundgarden mellowed out a fair bit and got a lot more experimental as they went along compared to their earlier stuff.
4th of July is very sludgy/doom so you'll probably love that song off of Superunknown. For Down On The Upside i'd say check out Pretty Noose & Burden In My Hand. For pre Badmotorfinger check out Beyond The Wheel. Also have you not listened to Black Hole Sun yet? It's thier most famous song.
Jesus Christ Pose video was shown on the same day as Smells like teen spirit on European MTV. The next day I bought the Badmotorfinger album, and it's the hands down favorite Seattle grunge album since then. All tracks are top notch!
In Soundgarden, the talent was clearly Chris Cornell... Matt Cameron (drums) joined Pearl Jam but none of the other members - Kim Thayil (guitar), Ben Shepherd (bass) or Hiro Yamamoto (original bassist) ... did anything outside of Soundgarden. 'Badmotorfinger' in 1991 was clearly a superior album to early Soundgarden records like 'Louder than Love'... 'Ultramega OK'... and the 90's decade was ready for a change of scene from the glam rock 80's to the grunge 90's... For some reason, Soundgarden took time to record and release their next album 'Superunknown' in 1994 but the timing was perfect. After the end of Nirvana... Pearl Jam disappearing from MTV ... and Alice in Chains going on hiatus... there was a huge void to fill and Soundgarden captured the moment... 'Superunknown' went to #1 and sold 6x platinum in the US w/ 6 video singles - 'Black hole Sun'... 'The day I tried to live' ... 'Spoonman' ... 'Fell on black days'... 'My wave'... and 'Superunknown'... Some of my faves off the record were 'Let me drown'... 'Fresh tendrils' ... and the bonus track 'She likes surprises'... Soundgarden's 1996 album 'Down on the upside' only sold platinum but was a solid offering like 'Superunknown'... the singles 'Pretty noose'... 'Burden in my hand'... as well as underrated songs like 'Ty Cobb'... 'Rhinosaur'... 'Boot camp'... With Soungarden is disarray on the road and 90's grunge rock declining rapidly... the band unexpectedly broke up in early 1997. They did reunite in 2012 and released their final album 'King Animal'... before Chris Cornell passed away in 2017.
Ben and Kim both had side projects of their own. Now Kim and Matt are in 3rd Secret with Krist from Nirvana. Saying they did nothing outside of Soundgarden is a stretch. They clearly did.
You could listen to some more alice in chains :) I recommend the self titled album, it's really imersive and atmospheric! Even their unplugged is worth a reaction, probably the best option imo The mad season supergroup record is also beautfiul! A mix of pearl jam, screaming trees and alice in chains, layne staley and mark lanegan(also in qorsa) in vocals 🤩 I would also love see your reaction to records like angel dust by faith no more and superunknown

OH YEAH !!
Badmotorfinger is a 11/10 classic album, maybe their best album!
Slaves and Bulldozers though
Just missed out
Honestly among the greatest vocal performances I've ever heard.
Definitely missed out.
Tighter & Tighter
the vocals in slaves and bulldozers are next level
RIP to the legend, Chris Cornell. Taken far too soon.
While 'Superunknown' was the album, that REALLY made Soundgarden a household name in the mainstream, I personally still feel 'Badmotorfinger' is their best album; in fact it might just be my favorite grunge album all together.. 🤔
I Agree
Badmotorfinger is my favourite album, but if I'm being honest, from a songwriting, vocal, atmosphere and production standpoint, Superunknown is untoppable, its a masterpiece of an album. I'd still rather listen to BMF though :)
Badmotorfinger is good but Superunknown is where they peaked IMO. Chris's vocals got richer, lyrics more mature, HQ engineering.
Slaves & Bulldozers is a fan favorite. You will love it if you listen to it at some point.
Looking California = Warm Sunny, Feeling Minnesota = Cold Overcast
Yeah, or looking hip but feeling flyover
thank you, I am from the other side of the world😅
There was a movie that was named after that line Feeling Minnesota.
@@kirawasareactor You have great videos, I really enjoy your channel, thanks!
Hey Kira, come to think of it, when I first heard Jesus Christ pose, I honestly felt a bit frightened. But, something kept drawing me back. It ended up being my favorite song. But, I know what you mean!
Screaming Trees and their album "Sweet Oblivion" are an underrated part of the grunge pantheon.
My branch is the Posies. But I feel you.
Totally man, and GRUNTRUCK
Dust is also excellent
RIP Chris never forgotten. ❤ I was 15 in 91. Nivana and Soundgarden changed my life. Great song choices.
*Hands All Over, Jesus Christ Pose, Slaves & Bulldozers
JCP made the cut my man
@@kirawasareactor no, u da man!
@kirawasareactor Glad you reacted to JCP. That constant bass /drums rhythm
I love it
To be fair, your patrons DID select the "softest" tracks off of Superunknown and Down On The Upside. I think there's alot off Superunknown you'll love and Down On The Upside has quite a few gems(and it probably has the most tracks of any of their albums; it really goes all over ghe place).
Soundgarden>Nirvana. I will die on that hill.
I'm right there with you on that
@@brenttuttle7268 My favorite song is 4th of July. Behind the Wheel is up there though.
Soundgarden and Alice in Chain's 🤘 and I really dig Gruntruck
Dude, easily.
No one really debates that. Chris and Layne were far superior to Kurt, and I'm a Nirvana fan.
This is not fair. Each Soundgarden album deserves it own full reaction.
starting with the debut🎉
@@kirawasareactor ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This sure brought back a lot of people, places, and things for me. Feels...
"Slaves and Bulldozers" is my favorite from the album. So sad to see it skipped.
Hello from Paris , For me it's the album Superunknown which remains one of the major albums of the 90s, with this very particular atmosphere
I’d love to do a full album reaction
@@kirawasareactor Yes, that would be really great, we're looking forward to it 🙏
Badmotorfinger is their best album in my opinion and a real classic. I also really like 'Louder Than Love', it was my first Soundgarden experience and the whole album blew my mind. Superunknown is fairly good, but a bit more tame and mainstream, it doesn't hit the spot for me like Badmotorfinger.

100% that song is something very special
same chronology as myself
Chris's voice always made me feel good. Doesn't matter the song, you can just feel him.
Badmotorfinger is such a great album. The guitars, and Cornell's voice are amazing
The best Soundgarden song that nobody talks about? Tighter & Tighter off Down on the Upside!
I absolutely love your reaction to Outshined! That's exactly how this song makes me feel every time I hear it!
One of my favourite bands of all time, and 4 of their best tracks
So many more great songs. Slaves and Bulldozers, Spoonman, My Wave, Superunknown, Pretty Noose, Burden in My Hand and Black Hole Sun. Their sound is so varied over the years. My Fav songs are Outshined, Spoonman, and Burden in My Hand. Superunknown is their most varied album. It is less heavy that Badmotorfinger. Spoonman and My Wave are great heavier songs on Superunknown. The last 2 choices would not have been my first picks for these 2 albums, but they are great songs. Fell on Black Days was a big hit single but softer. Black Hole Sun is one of the biggest rock songs of the 90s but not one of my favs. It was so popular that a lot of people couldn't even name another Soundgarden song. It is a shame as they have lots of great songs. Badmotorfinger is too heavy for the casual grunge fan. It is more hard rock.
Burden In My Hand, Pretty Noose, and The Day I Tried To Live. Bringing back memories of my youth sitting in my room playing video games.
I didn't enjoy Soundgarden when I first heard their music, but after a few listens, it grew on me and become one of my favourite bands of my youth.
Lived through the grunge era. Soundgarden was always my favorite. Especially Louder Than Love. We were listening to that before the whole scene took off. Just brings back good memories.
Outshined - my favourite from Soundgarden .......RIP Chris.....Greetings from Poland👍✌🤘
I love the heaviness of Badmoterfinger but Superunknown is basically a double album and every song is amazing and diverse.
But Badmotorfinger is the better album.
Nah, just different, both a great in different ways and for different moods.
Never got into stuff after bad motor
We need beyond the wheel . It will not disappoint
it's an overlooked gem for sure
Nazi Driver is a fun song off that album too
Badmotorfinger is a fucking masterpiece.
Great reaction thanks 🎉🎉🎉🎉... Greetings from Canada... Pretty ladie. ❤❤❤❤
I feel like there has never been a more apt name for a band. Love them.
Audioslave ????
Beyond The Wheel (Song 8 of 8 in Germany).... Chris' vocals are unbelievable!!!!!! INSANE!!!
The calm moments of Blow Up The Outiside World give me The Beatles and Pixies vibes.
21:40. A road trip with people that could understand “Fell on Black Days” would be unreal! I’d save up a thousand dollars to be on that trip!😆🌿🌸
Soundgarden's debut album is entitled: Ultramega O.K.
[released in: 1988];
Their sophomore release was: Louder Than Love [1989]
(Saw them 4 times on different legs of this tour)

there s a live vid of BEYOND THE WHEEL out there from the early days and the audio quality is excellent
Glad youre reviewing these tracks! Now i have to go listen to my other lesser-known favorites off Badmotorfinger, Searching With My Good Eye Closed and Room a Thousand Years Wide.
The one celebrity/musician that really affected me. In addition to an amazing voice and prescence, he had a beautiful soul. Gone much too soon.
Jesus Christ Pose... that bass tone! So compressed and tight!
That’s a great way to explain it
Ben has a way of accenting the songs just enough. Most of the time you can’t hear him but when he comes in you definitely notice!
@ralphdougherty1844 SG's rythm section is an incredible foundation with Ben and Matt Cameron, underrated drum player imho.
I saw them on the Badmotorfinger tour. They opened for G 'n R, and it was a spectacular show
Yesss. Wearing a Soundgarden t-shirt right now. Badmotorfinger never gets old. Every song slaps.
Chris Cornell's lyrics don't get overshadowed by his amazing voice. He's one of the best overall songwriters of the 80s and 90s. Given Chris's demise these songs hit me right in the feels even 30 yrs later.
Ahh. Outshined. So nice. Gives me a little Blacktop by Helmet vibe.
13:50. If this sound isn’t a sound garden, than you can’t find a sound garden anywhere!🌿🌸
Slaves and Bulldozers is their best song imo and maybe the best rock vocal of all time. Sorry you skipped!
Matt Cameron your new favorite drummer, welcome!
Speaking of Soundgarden. Riding a fast motorcycle with Rusty Cage in mind is a great thing...not a safe thing...but defenitely a great thing.
I agree, also mountain biking or back then BMX, Bad motor finger and GRUNTRUCK Push
Pretty noose is good. Also, fell on black days is great when you watch the official video.
burden in my hand is my top pick, was a special thing back when videos were on tv... the vibe is somethin else
Thanks for this! Jesus Christ Pose is just stunning
When you hear a Soundgarden riff and all you can do is say "YEAH" and headbang along
Beyond The Wheel
4th of July
Into The Void (Sabbath "cover" w diff lyrics. research the lyrical meaning of this song, its cool)
4th of July
Whoever picked gun has incredible taste
There's a really great accoustic version of Blow Up The Outside World that was put on RUclips on the Garden Of Sound channel in 2013. Highly recommend it.
Room a Thousand Years Wide! ❤
Soundgarden - "Hands All Over";
"My Wave"
(MUST listen! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🤘🤘)
As most of the commentators mentioned, slaves & bulldozers.
Also beyond the wheel, searching with my good eye closed, room a thousand years wide
and their totally underrated title track superunknown with its charmful windows 95 video clip :D
2 of them "up tempo", 2 extremely slow ones and 1 inbetween equal 5 more times enjoying
the one and only chris and the band at their best : )
1,2,3...
1,2,3...
1,2,3...(checks post description)
O-oh.🤭 I got ya.
You can't go wrong with Chris Cornell he was fantastic 👏 R.I.P
I would definitely go back and hit Flower, Loud Love, Hands All Over, and Slaves and Bulldozers- a little more raw & grungy, and Cornell’s scream was at its peak. Also definitely should hit Temple of the Dog- Hunger Strike for some Chris Cornell and Eddie Vedder goodness!
I still like the early stuff from Soundgarden the most (though they stayed great up until the end), "Loud Love" is my alltime favourite record. But Jesus Christ Pose is my favourite single song from them nontheless. That driving and busy tom-groove together with the spiralling hypnotic main riff is just outstanding.
This feeling of this songs !! I´m waiting for the new songs make me feel like this !
The last track had The Beatles vibe
💯♥️🇦🇺
For a fun experiment in sludge, 4th of July is a worthy choice
I think you need to check out the Slip album by Quicksand.
Soundgarden's Badmotorfinger is the best Black Sabbath album of the 1990s 😛😜🔥❤🔥 🤘🤘
Pretty Noose, Holy Water, Burden in my hand, Just like suicide, The day i tried to live, 4th of July, New Damage, My Wave, Mind Riot, Hands all over, Black Rain. The Badmotorfinger album was more genuine grunge, whereas the Superunknown album was a lot more commercial but still good.
Chris Cornell is a legend with a golden voice lost but not forgotten
Hey Kira!
If you are going to dwelve into death metal, here are my humble options:
- Flesh and the Power it Holds, by Death
- Heartwork, by Carcass
- Hammer Smashed Face, by Cannibal Corpse
Cheers!! :)
i'd recommend Beyond the wheel. it's an overlooked gem

Tighter And Tighter off of Down On The Upside is a hidden gem as well…It’s haunting now after Chris is gone. Probably my favorite Soundgarden song.

it still makes me sad to know that chris cornell is no longer with us.
My favourites of Soundgarden are from Superunknown. Interestingly these songs are some of the least listened to songs on Spotify. 6. Head Down. 9. Limo Wreck. 13. 4th Of July.

Check out their song 'Fresh Tendrils"
You look cute with this hair.
Feel on black days is one of my favorite songs of 90s.
FYI, Badmotorfinger was released in this day 33 days ago. A monumental record in rock history.
I love you and Soundgarden grettings!

You don't get much more experimental than their earlier stuff. Ultramega OK, Screaming Life/FOPP are as out there as it gets.
Three fantastic albums.
I still don't consider Soundgarden grunge at all. Same with AIC but it is what it is. Superunknown is an amazing album through and through.
Both are more metal to me.
The first Audioslave album was damn near perfect. I think you'll like any of the songs off that when you get to that part of Chris' catalog.
I love your photo lol
Sad Loss, he played around the corner the day before and I sadly missed him.
4th of July is very sludgy/doom so you'll probably love that song off of Superunknown. For Down On The Upside i'd say check out Pretty Noose & Burden In My Hand. For pre Badmotorfinger check out Beyond The Wheel. Also have you not listened to Black Hole Sun yet? It's thier most famous song.
Ultramega OK, Louder Than Love, Badmotorfinger, Superunknown, Down On The Upside, King Animal.
I'll put in my recommendation; Tighter & Tighter.
Kira you remind me of a genius I.Q. that has the ability to do anything you desire but has the soul to unleash your heart into anywhere you desire
WOW thank you!!!!
@@kirawasareactor you're welcome. Keep being you
Jesus Christ Pose video was shown on the same day as Smells like teen spirit on European MTV. The next day I bought the Badmotorfinger album, and it's the hands down favorite Seattle grunge album since then. All tracks are top notch!

The mad season supergroup record is also beautfiul!
A mix of pearl jam, screaming trees and alice in chains, layne staley and mark lanegan(also in qorsa) in vocals 🤩
I would also love see your reaction to records like angel dust by faith no more and superunknown
Badmotorfinger is their best album for sure
Ohhh we vibing!
For some laughs you should check out their song "Big Dumb Sex". Rather nsfw....and hilarious!
