Someone said the opening lyrics sound like 'I am Magneto and Forrest Gump. Songbook is a solo acoustic live album released in 2011 by Soundgarden and Audioslave vocalist Chris Cornell. Just a lot of screaming, but still so amazing.Įdit: Lmao. When I heard Soundgarden for the first time, I thought 'Wow, sounds so much like Plant.but with more power!'. Plant had range and he was in one of the best hard rock bands of all time, but that doesn't make him the best rock vocalist of all time just one of the better ones. Robert Plant used to be one of my favorites, but since then many other greats have cropped up. Half of it sounds about where they left off with Down on the Upside, and the rest is just solo/commercial pop-rock garbage.Īlso, I grew up listening to what my parents listened to, which was a lot of 70s rock, especially Led Zeppelin. That's one of the best songs on King Animal, but because it sounds like something he would have done in the 90s, along with Bones of Birds. Although the guy from Kyng sounds an awful lot like Chris at times. Chris Cornell lyrics with translations: You Know My Name, Nearly Forgot My Broken Heart, Cant Change Me, Part of Me, Pillow Of Your. I've seen Chris live a couple times (once with Pete Thorn & Yogi team) and he's been excellent both times. B Money Member Messages 6,379 2 Huh Whats that, a live album I'd be all over that.

The only other modern vocalist that comes close to sounding like what Chris did in his prime is Myles Kennedy, but he's still a distant second. 1 These are amazing I guess the full concert album comes out next week. He's also in my top 5 across all genres period. So as far as rock goes, yeah.Chris is in my top 5. Soundgarden is what he's best known for, and it's where his best music lies, but his best vocal perfomance is on Temple of the Dog almost none of which is 'rocking', but it's a lot more interesting than his solo stuff. Not only did he have one of the most impressive non falsetto ranges in rock, he also had a very relaxing mid and lower range as well as style. He can sing so many styles, and usually sings in a soul style that you don't hear that often in rock. Honestly, there's a lot of great vocalists out there, but Chris Cornell has to be my second all time favorite (only behind Bruce Dickinson). Simply because of Chris' voice, I was going to say Soundgarden, even though the popular answer would be Nirvana or Alice In Chains (who are also great).

Never miss a story! Get your free daily music news email alert.Wow, I was just thinking about starting a similar thread, but it had more to do with who your favorite 90s 'grunge' band was. Cornell says it is possible the band will perform more shows in Europe in 2017.ġ1/04 and 05 – Philadelphia, PA, Tower Theaterġ1/07 – New York, NY, Madison Square Gardenġ1/11 and 12– San Francisco, CA, Bill Graham Civic Centerġ1/20 and 21 – Seattle, WA, Paramount Theaterįollow on Facebook and Twitter Temple of the Dog have reformed for limited shows in November. I think the same thing would apply to Temple.” I’m super excited about writing new songs as long as we don’t detract from what came before, and ultimately we did that. Temple of the Dog existed from 1990 to 1992 and recorded one album, the self-titled release in 1991.Ībout new music Cornell said, “It was the same issue with reforming Soundgarden. Temple of the Dog was a Seattle rock band put together by Cornell and Pearl Jam’s Stone Gossard, Jeff Ament, Mike McCready and Matt Cameron as a tribute to their late friend Andrew Wood. There aren’t many rock vocalists currently working who could achieve what Cornell did on the Songbook tour, without the protection of a band or the safety blanket of playlists and compositions learnt from years of touring the. I don’t want to say they’d have to live up to the album, but I wouldn’t want it to take away from it either.” 'Songbook' is a truly good album, reflecting Chris Cornells sensibility as artist, with intimate live performances. Speaking to Rolling Stone Cornell said, “We’d have to feel really great about the songs.
