Zach,

 

Funny you posted this as I just have been listening to Superunknown for the last few days. I have also been trying to convince the band to play Pretty Noose as a cover. I am not sure our singer can do it, but so what.

 

I remember watching them on SNL to see them play a few tunes. WHAT A GREAT BAND.

 

What ever happened to Kim Thayl (sp?)

 

Jack

I think Badmotorfinger probably did more to destroy his vocal chords than any other album. He pulls off some seriously intense screaming on that album!

The early nineties was the last great time for rock music.

 

It was a very exciting time, I am still discovering bands from the early nineties.

 

 

Just so many great bands around then....

 

Kyuss, Tool, Soundgarden, Nirvana and Pearl jam to name a few.

Here's the good news: once we work through the current "influences include Joy Division/Cure blah blah" vogue, the 90s will be back soon enough.

 

The catch: the bands will be prefab, will either suck or have one catchy single, and we will hate them.

 

History repeats itself: the first time as tragedy, the second time as crass, opportunistic music-biz product in the form of disposable boys with guitars.

 

 

EDIT: Having watched the vids, I must say I find it comforting that CC can't hit those notes live any better than I can. Human after all...
