Grunge vocals*

[@bonzo4655]

@@chadtrickthereal grunge is literally just what the media coined that movement to sell it as a product it’s fucking rock and roll at heart

[@Rvench]

@@bonzo4655 grunge isn't even a genre it's more of an aesthetic for fashion and bands like this and ones from Seattle got all looped into being some sort of genre of music that sounds the same even tho bands like nirvana, Soundgarden, Melvin's, alice in chains etc don't sound similar at all and your totally right it's all just hard rock with some punk influence maybe

[@cyanide_lollipop3264]

@@chadtrickthereal We never used the term "grunge" here in Seattle. It was a derogatory term. The music this town gave birth to was a killer and random mix of rock, metal, punk, and whatever you wanted to call Mother Love Bone. Soundgarden, aka The Best Band of All Time, was more of a sludgey, bluesey, metall-y rawk. I mean, how could anyone possibly call Nirvana, Soundgarden, Alice in Chains, and Mudhoney the exact same musical style?? Makes no fuckin' sense.

[@nightkatlxx2748]

Damn, They made an art out of being so f***in HEAVY but not being "metal". How da do dat. This makes me sad and also makes me feel old....RIP Chris

[@takeadayofff]

Ditto. I reckon When Badmotorfinger came out it was considered and sounded like Metal (not thrash metal, which was mainstream at the time.) On later albums they toned it down to hard rock, but these two were definitely straight-ahead heavy metal. Differentiated from "grunge" by tight timing, intelligent melodies, and fat metal sound. Contrasted with Lollapaloosa's communist ethos of "we don't have to play any music". I'm sure in the great beyond Chris Cornell enjoys an honorable mention among the great metal warriors and occasionally kicks a poseur off the pit.

[@a.j.pinckney88]

"How da do dat." That's the genius of this band :-)

[@DarkShark147]

I'd definitely consider some of their early stuff Heavy Metal, Soundgarden loves Black Sabbath, and their influence is apparent in their sound

[@freakingjames1820]

But they were metal for the most part. Grunge isn't a genre, it's a movement. Most of the bands from the movement either played stoner rock, punk or stoner/sludge metal

[@frankgile1996]

@@freakingjames1820 I guess that's true; even QOTSA (which I guess were KYUSS before they were QOTSA) started in the late 80's, Nirvana were basically sludge in "Bleach", and they started as Nirvana in '87 I think (and even before that, Kurt had done other bands, like "Fecal Matter", and probably a couple more), "Alice in Chains" in '87... I think all of these guys started off pretty "sludgy"-sounding, it's just that each one of them added their own "touch" to that sludge element... Some of the big 4 of grunge started as sludge, while other didn't, and some had already been doing sludge, but weren't considered "grunge"...

[@Dave-bo8ry]

Gutted. "Everything I've held is what I've freed..." Rest easy, Chris.

Blaze1012 it was the best..last great era..there was magic in the air..magic

[@jeffa9678]

Yes you do...

[@brandall101]

I was in highschool then ('90-94). It was insanely cool, can't believe how much I took it for granted. Not only was it the Seattle bands, but stuff like Siamese Dream, GnR/Metallica stadium tours... bands like Pantera, Megedeth, Suicidal Tendencies, Faith No More, and Chili Peppers were at the height of their powers, Beastie Boys were making their comeback. Heck I saw both No Doubt and Sublime playing in the freakin' quad at my college in late '94. I was actually watching 120 minutes the moment Smells Like Teen Spirit debuted, and when MTV started playing Man in the Box and Outshined. Such a wealth of great stuff. I didn't realize at the time that it was the last great period of rock. All we cared about was there was all this great 'alternative' music that killed hair metal.

[@marktader3580]

@@brandall101 Everything you said was true. What a great era.

[@brandall101]

@@marktader3580 I forgot one crucial bit of info from that period - I went to Eddie Vedder's highschool (San Dieguito in Encinitas)... his younger half brother was a sr. when I was a sophomore (totally a dick), my government teacher had Eddie as a student and would tell us stories about him, one of my friends found a yearbook from '81 with his photo in it. We're so blessed to have lived through this... my folks had the 60s, this was something almost as great (musically speaking).

[@24sevenyo]

I was a crowd surfin mofo at this concert.. So cool to see this sober! lol

[@SpiritusMundi4EVER]

Props to Ben Shepherd as well for that sinister bass!

[@TheAgresiveHamburger]

REMEMBER ! YOU GOTTA TAKE YOUR SHOES OFF FIRST ! ... Wise words ?

[@sierracascadebonsai]

I love Chris's Silverburst Les Paul in this show! Probably my favorite finish on an LP.

[@apiloto3219]

Brian Larson its green

[@NoxiousPond]

Out of all the 90's drummers people will mostly say Danny Carey is the best but Matt Cameron is without a doubt the most unique. Matt has nearly all the chops as Danny and he's entirely his own type of drummer. Matts a beast

[@PKP405]

I'd also be inclined to throw Chris Kontos into the mix. Even though Machinehead didn't achieve nearly as much mainstream success, he was so brutal on Davidian! I mean damn!

[@MichaelGrubbEvolvedMinistry]

Hmmm... 1. Vinnie Paul 2. Joey Jordison 3. Carter Beauford 4. Tony Royster Jr 5. Sean Kinney You skipped over quite a few. Tony Royster Jr. and Vinnie Paul are probably two of the best of all time.

[@gimmeblackcoffee]

Totally agree! Matt Cameron might be THE best 90s drummer, IMHO.

[@ianmason2003]

No drummer has ever said Matt Cameron was weak. He is why Soundgarden could do what they have done. But honestly he does not come close to Danny Carey. Trust me when I say Matt is a hero of mine, but Danny is on another level. Sean Kinney is also a favorite of mine. Dave Krusen for one album captured an entire music generation also. As did Grohl. Seattle has captured a ton of excellent drummers, for me starting back to Scott Rockenfield of Queensryche.

[@SXI96]

John Stramiello Matt Cameron was incredible with Soundgarden, loved his drumming, I couldn't imagine any other drummer with this band, his style fit so damn nicely, now with Pearl Jam, not so much

[@aestheticaltwat]

Now, this is one band I wish I saw.

Chris Cornell is one of my favorite singers, However, just by watching how he sings, it's easy to see how easy it would be for him to make signing in this style safer and easier, with minor technique alterations.

I was born in the 90s but I haven't experience this kind of music era cause I was just a baby back then but when I turned 10 in 2000 or 2001 rock music was the first genre that has caught my attention. Then during my high school to early college days luckily a new wave of rock era was born it was emo and pop punk era, I was so lucky that I still experience the era of rock music but to be honest grunge is better. I wish this kind of music comes back again in this day and age🤘🤘 long live rock music
