One of my favorite lines ever. You can be a hottie and be depressed. Chris Cornell taught me that.

What’s crazy is that this is a top 5 grunge album and it’s still not Soundgarden’s best album 😮

finally getting around to listening to this, dunno why i haven't been attracted to Soundgarden at all previously, even tho I love most of the other grunge acts from the era

Curious, what's your guys' top 5 look like if this is in there?

killer record seems like btw, didn't expect it to be this aggressive and definitely didn't expect even hearing a Chris Cornell growl

Top 5 grunge or Soundgarden?

Grunge:



5. Dirt

4. In Utero

3. Badmotorfinger

2. Jar of Flies

1. Superunknown



Maybe it’s basic, but the big four of grunge are really the only ones I wanna listen to these days. And Pearl Jam is for a few songs, not an album.

Switch In Utero and Jar of Flies actually. 2,3, and 4 are nearly interchangeable.

Tough to list because I like Dirt and self titled equally, my favorite depends on my mood. Same with Superunknown and down on the upside (badmotorfinger rates ever so slightly lower). In Utero is def on the list, the only nirvana album I really love.



Screaming Trees — Dust and Sweet Oblivion deserve at least an honorable mention. I would also put PJ’s Vitalogy in the top 5.



And I’m assuming we aren’t including STP or the Pumpkins.

With you hard on that one man. Also one of my favorite lines, and always really related to it.

Great album, but I'm taking a few other Grunge albums over this for sure. Superunknown for a start.

I have zero desire to listen to the hits off of Superunknown ever again honestly
