What a gentle, authentic soul. It's so touching how he talks about Chris, almost like he is still with us. Kim is beautifully vulnerable as a human, and that humanity makes his playing so singular and special.

He used to fight whoever disrespected him, so what you’re saying is you know him from this video.
@elliottquent8 ай бұрын
He seems at peace to me, and quirky and jovial in a wonderful way. People change. How did you deal with interpersonal challenges 30 years ago yourself, while you played in one of the worlds most popular bands of the time? Oh right….

The respect Soundgarden had for each other as musicians is a great lesson, kids. Don't sell yourself short by settling for less. Hunt down YOUR people. And if you find them, hold onto them!

I love the comments that Kim made about how guitar players try to come up with cool riffs and chords but they play things the easiest way possible. A totally genuine and humble guy and man what a big guitar tone he has! Soundgarden was my favorite band of the ‘90’s for sure and his playing influenced so many players then and now. Great interview/workshop!

I first encountered Soundgarden in a tiny club in Albany NY as the opening band for Living Color and was completely blown away, been a huge fan since then, loved every stage of their growth, they never stagnated keep developing right till the end. Really digging Kim's new stuff with 3rd Secret. Kim is such as cool down to earth guy, he's the same guy who was chatting to us kids in that club way back in 1989.

Kim changed my music tastes with the first punch of the opening sounds of Loud Love that could only be done on a Guild Guitar, (the second punch being Nirvana’s Nevermind). Been a tremendous Soundgarden fan ever since. The part about creating the song Hunted Down was amazing, and seeing how that lineage goes: Tony Iommi>Buzz osbourne> Kim Thayil >Drop D>The rest of rock
@galetinm9 ай бұрын
The song he talks about making around the 40 minute mark, after talking about the drop D, is, I'm pretty sure, 'nothing to say', their first single. Not 'hunted down'.

@jomoanderson55969 ай бұрын
Great Player, fell in love with Soundgarden in part as a kid because there was something interesting about a Rock Band with an Indian guitarist,& a Japanese Bass Player(Hiro Yamamoto). He had the benefit of backing one of the best Rock vocalist/songwriters of all time but a very unique signature to his playing, like his lead on 'Slaves,& Bulldozers'. Very difficult to stand out as a player sonically and he's one of a kind in that regards.

Kim is my favorite guitarist simply for the kind and gentle way he is. 'Room A Thousand Years Wide' is my favorite Soundgarden song (and he wrote it, as I understand), and hearing the bit about that was divine. Such a sweet, guy. I'd love to buy him a beer.
