Amazon offers Superunknown (Audio CD),04 January, 1994 List price $9.99 Yes it's good / 5 I won't say too much here, cause if you aren't already familiar with at least a couple of songs from this album there probably isn't any hope for you. Anyway, Soundgarden were easily the best of the rather arbitrarily lumped together grunge bands, and this is their best album. (Well, of their last 3. I don't have their early sludge stuff, can't get too interested in it.) It breaks the cardinal rule for me when it comes to hard rock/metal albums: It has more than 10 tracks. Hell, it's got 15 of em. 'Superunknown' is the exception that proves the rule, I believe, as it actually doesn't have anything that I would call filler, nothing mediocre, but it still kinda feels like it could stand to be cut down slightly. 15 songs and 70 minutes is just a helluva lotta music. Nevertheless, you can't argue with what's here. Again, none of the tracks are bad. This album is quite a bit more varied and melodic than 'Badmotorfinger', though they certainly aren't afraid to sludge it up now and then. The biggest difference is that Chris Cornell has now really come into his own as a vocalist. He was always good, but now he's got the screeching and the melodies down pat. One of the best singers in rock of all-time, period. Also, though his lyrics don't necessarily add up too much in particular all the time, they do tend to be interesting, at least. The biggest standout track comes in the very middle, 'Spoonman'. Best song Soundgarden ever wrote, with a great stomping-groove main riff like no other. This is one of those tracks that is, as far as I'm concerned, perfect. Not saying it's the greatest song ever, though it's on the big list, if I had one, but it accomplishes it's apparent intentions flawlessly. Other stand outs include the crushing dirge 'Mailman' and the monstrously slow and doomy '4th of July'. 'Black Hole Sun' was horrendously overplayed, yes, but it's still a fun, hypnotic track, and one of the more immediately memorable things here. (Great Vox too.) I also particularly like the relatively energetic title track and the dense, moody 'Head Down' which has great interplay between electric and acoustic guitars. Beyond this you've got the two openers, 'Let Me Drown' and 'My Wave', two of their faster, catchier songs. The album does have a few pacing problems, in that it's only got a few (relatively) up tempo songs, and they're placed too close to the front. (Personally, I think either 'My Wave' or 'Let Me Drown' should be placed towards the very end of the album to balance things out a bit more.) But when you get done to discussing the track order on the album, you know you've only got some really piddling complaints. Again, all those tracks that I didn't mention are still very good. Brilliant album, this. Song "Gun" I got an idea of something we can do with a gun Sink load and fire till the empire Reaps what they’ve sown Shoot shoot shoot till their minds are open Shoot shoot shoot till their eyes are closed Push push push till we get some motion Push push push till the bombs explode I got an idea We can do it All on our own Nothing to worry Regret must weigh a ton Kick kick kick till the laws are broken Kick kick kick till the boots are worn Hit hit hit till the truth is spoken Hit hit hit till the truth is born I got an idea of something We can do with a gun
