dang jesus christ pose FUCKS

Album Rating: 5.0

This is better than Superunknown, not because SuperU is bad, but because this is sheer brilliance

Album Rating: 4.5

The vocals on Slaves and Bulldozers are amazing

Album Rating: 4.0

Ok, this one I did need to bump...



Badmotorfinger [4/5]



1. Rusty Cage [5/5] (one of the all time great album openers of the era ye)

2. Outshined [4.5/5] (sprawls all over the place in the best possible way)

3. Slaves & Bulldozers [4/5] (a teeny bit overlong but a minor quibble)

4. Jesus Christ Pose [5/5] (some band out there had to release a song called Jesus Christ Pose, a bit of a rock standard)

5. Face Pollution [4/5] (the punk tunes feel a bit more authentic on the pre-Superunknown albums)

6. Somewhere [4/5] (anyone else singing this song it'd probably stiff, Cornell makes it work, hats off)

7. Searching with My Good Eye [3.5/5] (this prob would have sounded better performed by AIC however)

8. Room a Thousand Years Wide [4/5] (quite impressively evil sounding)

9. Mind Riot [4.5/5] (I seem to prefer this to most people, seems an archetypal Soundgarden tune)

10. Drawing Flies [4/5] (the craziest song on the album, could have been annoying, isn't)

11. Holy Water [3.5/5] (sounds like a Temple of the Dog outtake, it's not bad, bit old fashioned?)

12. New Damage [2.5/5] (plop, slight stinker, bit phoned in)

Album Rating: 4.0

room a thousand years wide > mind rot

Album Rating: 4.0

Prefer Mind Riot myself but I can see why people prefer Room a Thousand. '4th of July' slays both 'Slaves' and 'Room a Thousand' in the epic doomy Sabbathy stakes imo



2:55 - 3:55 of '4th of July' is probably my favourite minute of Soundgarden music

Album Rating: 4.0

i enjoy the descending riffs on new damage but its nothing special really

Album Rating: 4.0

Yeah, it's a 2.5 song - not awful, I don't have to skip it but by the same measure there'll be times I won't listen to it.

Album Rating: 3.9

this is prolly the best album for Cornell's vocals even if I prefer the songwriting on Superunknown a teeny bit



dude sounds like he was scorching the studio on Slaves & Bulldozers and JCP

Album Rating: 4.0

ideed man those songs fuck

Album Rating: 4.5

"this is prolly the best album for Cornell's vocals"



He's an absolute powerhouse on here, but if we can include Temple of the Dog...

Album Rating: 4.5

jesus christ pose is so metal. i'm debating if i should bump this, sometimes i prefer it to superunknown

Album Rating: 4.5

Mind Riot is bliss man
