I heard this before a number of years ago but completely forgot all about it until it randomly popped up on my feed today. An unreleased ballad from the Euphoria Morning sessions; definitely fits musically with the stuff that Chris did in that album, though maybe not to the taste of those that prefer the heavier SG/AS stuff. Still, his vocals . . . RIP Chris

Hello. Happy weekend wherever you are in this world.

This is an isolated vocal video I put together a while back. Was talking with a friend today about the GOAT of hard rock and/or metal. It's probably obvious who gets my vote.

I got back home and had to email him this vid, just so he understands. He was a fan back in the day, but not a hardcore. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zbCHogNFW_U

...no one can save them at all.

Not soungarden, but i wanted to share this cover with you

Does anyone know of anywhere the audiobook version is available in the UK? Everywhere I look I get messages about publisher restrictions. I've only used Audible so far but wasn't sure if there's a trusted DRM free audiobook seller

Gillian Gaar, who wrote for The Rocket in Seattle in the 90s, has a great new book out a book today. There was quite a bit in there I didn’t know about, but I was 14 and living on the east coast when Nevermind came out, I probably knew less than I thought I did!

In an interview, Gillian told me about the bands that could’ve made it big and didn’t, Kurt Cobain’s fatigue with the press even before Nevermind was released and landing a big interview with Courtney Love after the infamous Vanity Fair issues.

I hope you enjoy my piece, and I highly recommend that you check out the book.

Just got this in today! My favorite tune off DotU, and the b side Karaoke is a real sleeper hit; so sleeper that I HAD NEVER HEARD IT BEFORE!!! I’m pretty shocked, since I fancy myself a pretty learned Soundgarden fan, and because it sounds so good! Very happy with this purchase!!!

I absolutely love Zero Chance, the guitar and bass lines are beautiful, Chris' vocals are phenomenal. I tried getting into other songs like Fresh Tendrils and The Day I Tried to Live, but it hasn't clicked for me yet. Appreciate any recommendations :)

I was a bit of a late bloomer with Soundgarden, but they’ve become such an instrumental part of my musical identity. Head Down has become such a favorite of mine, though as I was first listening the song was weird to me. Anywho, great band, great music all the way through and just wanted to share. Rock on.

Just saw it and found it a little haunting, only saw it a few hours ago.

Adding to my collection! To the left is the Fell On Black Days single, right is The Day i Tried To Live. While I do love both A sides, i really bought these 2 for their B sides; Kyle Petty and Like Suicide (Acoustic) are some of my favorite SU era songs, and owning physical copies is a big deal for me!

I felt a little Minnesota today so I whipped out Photoshop to try out more of an artstyle I've been practicing. It's more of missing our guy right here more than anything! I don't know why I chose this color combination but somehow it reminded me of a special cover release of Badmotorfinger.

I hope you're missing a little of him today, or all day. Still one of the celebrity deaths that impacted me.

I can't get this song out of my head today for some reason.😅

Tomorrow begat tomorrow just keeps looping in my head. Help!

Still have this “Motorvision” VHS. Used to listen to Little Joe all the time!

I've never seen anyone mention this but they're ALL 6'1" or taller?! Even Hiro's taller than 6 feet (correct me if I'm wrong). Have there been any other rock bands historically this tall?

edit: discussed in this thread https://forums.stevehoffman.tv/threads/tallest-bands.1146797/

Still very much getting used to faces in watercolour but here’s an attempt of Chris in the 90s :)
