Temple of the dog was a side project started by Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell as a tribute to his former roommate Andrew wood, the vocalist of Mother Love Bone, who died of a heroin overdose in 1990 just before the release of their first album. Mother Love Bone featured two future Pearl Jam members, Stone Gossard and Jeff Ament. Chris approached them with the intention of releasing a couple of songs he wrote as they were figuring out how to continue without Andrew. Jeff and Stone were trying to recruit members to form a new band and eventually found two of them, one being Eddie Vedder. Chris insisted on making them part of the project. So this was a supergroup before any of these bands achieved any substantial mainstream sucess. Pearl Jam would release their first album one year later and Soundgarden was just starting to get some attention.

[@stonecold5373]

Pearl Jam's first album was so insane it left Soundgarden in the dust, imho. Cornell has the greatest voice I've ever heard but Pearl Jam just had so many more epic songs.

[@derrickshultz6800]

Han Parker unfortunately you are absolutely correct. I stumbled on them on the Singles soundtrack and took a chance on their CD. There are a couple great documentaries on KZbin about Andrew and how he died right before they exploded and missed the grunge movement he helped create. Sad story but led to some great music.

Yep they all started in Seattle playing clubs together and playing in each others bands, writing, etc. Cornell was pretty much the big brother and mentor of the scene, especially once Andy Wood died. Cornell was also the main person to make sure Eddie Vedder was excepted into the scene as he arrived late when all those guys already knew each other, and many of them were not very accepting of Eddie when he first came to Seattle. Cornell was also the principal songwriter of these songs with Temple OTD.

Before Pearl Jam there was Mother Love Bone. Same members; their singer Andrew Wood died of a drug overdose before their record came out. Andrew & Chris Cornell of Soundgarden were roommates & Chris with Matt Cameron (Soundgarden drummer) & the remaining members of Mother Love Bone did this one-off record as a tribute to Andrew. Eddie was recruited & then became Pearl Jam. From the same record you should check out "Wooden Jesus", & "Reach Down".

[@bryansilverstein4975]

I was thinking, "didn't I read/hear that this was recorded happened before Pearl Jam put out their debut album, Ten?" Glad someone else recalls this, too. I'm never sure about my memory....

Not entirely the same members. Stone (guitar) and Jeff (bass) were in Mother Love Bone. The other guitarist in Pearl Jam (Mike McCready) was a friend of Stone's brought in after Mother Love Bone broke up. Bruce Fairweather was the other guitarist in MLB, and Greg Gilmore was the drummer at the time of Andy's death. Eddie was actually fresh in town (originally from San Diego) and had just joined Pearl Jam when he performed on this song (before Pearl Jam had finished recording Ten).

[@mallorymedina9326]

“Hunger Strike” and “Wooden Jesus” were ideas that might have been a few months old, but I had never really finished writing or fully realized them. They didn’t feel like Soundgarden, so I didn’t really pursue them. But “Hunger Strike” came about because of an existential crisis that Soundgarden faced at that moment. We were sort of the first band [from Seattle] that had attention from labels in a meaningful way. There was a bidding war, which was unusual for any band from Seattle. We were living our dream, but there was also this mistrust over what that meant. Does this make us a commercial rock band? Does it change our motivation when we’re writing a song and making a record? “Hunger Strike” is a statement that I’m staying true to what I’m doing regardless of what comes of it, but I will never change what I’m doing for the purposes of success or money" - Chris Cornell, 2016

Temple of the Dog is a tribute to Andy Wood, he was the singer of Mother Love Bone. Andy Wood and Chris Cornell were roommates at one point, so Chris wrote a couple of songs about him after he died. He invited Jeff Ament & Stone Gossard to record these songs with him, they were both in Mother Love Bone. Mike McCready, a friend of Stone was also invited. Jeff, Stone and Mike were testing out new singers for a new band, thats were Eddie Vedder comes in the picture(this became Pearl Jam) . At rehearsal Chris was having trouble singing the lower parts of Hunger Strike, and Eddie steped in and sang them, Chris then invited Eddie back to sing them on record, the first time Eddie ever sang on a record. When both Soundgarden and Pearl Jam became huge, the Temple of the Dog album was re-released and became a hit.

Seriously, react to Pearl Jam's album Ten. You'll love it.

Soundgarden - Spoonman Soundgarden - Slaves And Bulldozers Soundgarden - Outshined

[@BradCross1982]

Soundgarden- Holy Water

[@chadibouaazzi3364]

It’s hard to believe that almost all my heroes from the Seattle grunge scene are gone. I thank god that Eddie Vedder is still here and I had the opportunity to have the fallen grunge legends in my life ( shout out to Chris Cornell (soundgarden, audioslave), Layne Staley (Alice and Chains), Scott Weiland (Stone Temple Pilots), and Kurt Cobain (Nirvana) thank you.) Also Siri I know what you mean by that the vocals sounded a bit like country. I always felt, Chris Cornell especially, had a voice that ancient humans used. I think about Native Americans, Africans, ancient Chinese, Muslims reciting Quran (tajweed), all crying from mountain tops. I love it a lot.

[@rasix86]

Sori is totally right. Chris Cornell has a lot of Country influences. His song "Seasons" is a pure Country song - and what a song it is! And Johnny Cash covered Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage". Both versions are great. Also fun you mention Hair-Metal. Because the whole Temple of the Dog album is a tribute to Andrew Wood, who was the vocalist of Mother Love Bone, which was basically a Glam-Rock band.

[@monicajean37]

OH yeah FOR SURE Andrew Woods persona, TOTALLY GLAM LOL WOULD LOVE TO HEAR THEM REACT TO CHLOE DANCER

[@gnovincejr2]

Just makes me smile seeing Vin LOVE grunge! Awesome!!

Iron Maiden Revelations, 22 Acadia Avenue. Please.

[@thejoeybanta9224]

I'm 57 and was in morning for my era of music when the Seattle sound came around . I loved this place in time great artist .

[@thisguy8916]

sure you weren't in evening?

[@lantzkeefer8674]

R.I.P. Chris Cornell,should really do some Soundgarden.

[@KoRn_NuTT]

And Audioslave

[@thehawk515]

Country has been around for generations and you cannot deny that it has its influences in rock. I am not typically a fan, but there is still some country I really like! Also, great choice. Keep it up guys :)!

Pearl Jam - Even Flow

[@stepheniemacleary7982]

County, seriously...WTF

[@swede1313]

In support your "Robin Hood" reference Pearl Jam took Ticket Master to court (in the 90's) for outrages "Service Charges" and would not tour in venues ticketed by TM

[@shaitanlavey]

Okay, so you like AIC Would?, you like Chris Cornell and you like Jeremy by Pearl Jam. TEMPLE OF THE DOG IS THE GLUE THAT HOLDS THIS PUZZLE TOGETHER. Go and educate yourself on the singer of Mother Love Bone, Andrew Wood, and your eyes will open to the big picture.

[@shaitanlavey]

And afterwards, react to the songs Say Hello 2 Heaven and Reach Down by Temple of the Dog.

[@happiedasie878]

@@shaitanlavey They just don't know how it was I understand rest in peace Andy & Chris be well and have a good evening. Happie

[@claytonn3957]

Chris has a lot of twang in his voice so I can see how it relates to country. The Pacific Northwest is a bit isolated and they do have a specific accent

[@celestinomagana4347]

Do Audioslave 'Show me How To Live'..

[@IDONTCAREWYT]

In my opinion, Temple of the Dog created the greatest grunge album of all time. Listen to their other song "Say Hello To Heaven." It was written as a tribute to Mother Love Bone singer Andrew Wood, who had died of a heroin overdose. In fact, Temple of The Dog consisted not of Pearl Jam members, but of Mother Love Bone members. They, along with Eddie Vedder would go on to form Pearl Jam. Temple of The Dog came first. This video was filmed at Discovery Park in Seattle.

[@Watchout5035.]

That doesn’t sound country Sori!!!!

[@BradCross1982]

Not even close to country lol

[@BradCross1982]

There’s a lot of good country music out there you just can’t find it on the radio

[@coryr9938]

She means the way that Eddie pronounces some of his words and vowels. I can hear it a bit.

[@BradCross1982]

She also said that Alice in Chains Rooster sounded like country. I guess people hear things differently

[@shmick6079]

She’s talking about accents just here and there, not the tone of the song. I can hear it.
