Free Music Notes for Superunknown
Free Music Review: One of the Greatest Albums of the 90s.
Hit: 5 Stars
Amazon is so full of gushing fanboys bloating on about their favorite childhood music, movies, actors. This will not be one of those type of reviews.
Superunknown stands the test of time from repeated listening and never shows its age. My kid (12 and 10) love the album and request it on road trips.....by singing the chorus...."ALIVE IN THE SUPERUNKNOWN"
Free Music Review: amazing
Hit: 5 Stars
On my list of greatest albums of all time. The experimental songs work well, the radio hits work well. The mix, the sound, the quality, the lyrics...all perfect. All of these new crappy bands should listen to this to find out what rock is all about. Free Music Review: Superunknown is a Great Rock Album
Hit: 5 Stars
Although they didn't achieve the success of their friends' Alice In Chains, Nirvana and Pearl Jam the music on this album is more impressive than ever. The songs display the explosive low-tuned guitar notes of Kim Thayil along with bassist Ben Shepard and Drummer Matt Cameron, proving to be one of rocks most potent rhythm sections. And of course you have the ultimate Soundgarden signature of singer Chris Cornell's wailing, powerful vocals.
The album shows it's maturity with songs like "Kickstand", "Like Suicide" and "Mailman". The best part of album are the singles "Spoonman" (which features a slight cheesy but interesting megaphone spoken word type vocals) and "Black Hole Sun" a dark psychedelic moody power ballad that broke Soundgarden into the Top 40. This is a great rock album.
Free Music Review: A Classic "Grunge" era CD that never gets old
Hit: 5 Stars
Somehow when I moved, I lost my original copy of this CD, so I bought a new copy from Amazon just recently, even though it's been many years since this CD was released.
If you were into the Seattle "grunge" scene at all, then you probably already own this... if not, then you should. Just great songs and great production all the way around, and they still stand up even now long after grunge has died.
I was also lucky enough to have been one of the recording engineers who got to make backup safety copies of all the master analog 24-track tapes from this album before they originals were shipped down to A&M. It was great being able to hear some of the individual instrument tracks, and the HUGE drum room sounds (recorded at Bad Animals / Studio X in Seattle), as well as some of the "outtakes" and chatter between the band that happened before and after takes. Too bad they couldn't stick together!
Free Music Review: Wow
Hit: 5 Stars
The worst songs on Superunknown are still great songs. Limo Wreck, Fresh Tendrils, Let me Drown are awesome tunes and there are many better ones on Superunknown. Most people probably already know Spoonman, the Day I tried to live, and blackhole sun. You get your money's worth here.
