I love his harmonies. But he >doesn't have the scream like Chris. Spot on - technically, Chris is a far superior singer. Layne is good, maybe great, but he doesn't have the control or range of Chris. By the same token, Chris doesn't have to put up with too many harmonies - this wouldn't be so much of a problem for Layne, but the singing guitarists in AIC (Jerry Cantrell and co.) have a rotter of a time... it's hard enough to play alone! It's hard enough to play and sing! But to play and sing harmonies is something that I admire in any artist...

Blur have some tracks that sound like the Beatles. But what about the rest of the so-called britpop scene. Pulp, Radiohead, Elastica, BlackGrape etc. They don't all sound like the Beatles. Whilst we mention Britpop, what about the Michael Jackson incident. I know its unrelated to SG but I'm interested in what the Americans on this list have to say about it. Loadsa Luck Nik "Just because your paranoid Don't mean they're not after you!" ------------------------------ From: Justin Philip Zachariah Subject: designomania,we're awesome,and all that Seems like the fork is pretty much decided. And it does rock. But we all have to remember that the way it looks on the web, on a nice color monitor, all glowing and shiny and glorious is not the way it's going to be on a cotton tee. Let's not get disappointed if it doesn't look exactly like that. I know I won't, cuz,like I said before, it rocks. Oh damn, I'm babbling again... Well, I think somms@mit.edu should be on there. I also really, really like the sg "skull" christmas ornament at the web site. So, I was thinking maybe we could replace the teeth that spell out sg with SOMMS. SOMMS isa nice odd numbered letttered word(?), so it work out well. then below that we could put in @mit.edu. So, sometime down the road, if the address does change ,we could make a new shirt with the same kick-ass SOMMS skull with the new domain name just below it. Would we be in danger of copyright infringement by doing that? Anyhow, I think that the high correlation between sg lovers and people who have varied musical tastes is a very telling statistic. I wuld venture that this correlation is due to the fact that people who really like different types of music enjoy each type of music for its own sake. The resounding crescendo of a good piece of Beethoven gives us the same excitement as a gloriously monstrous riff from Kim's guitar, or even a from Coolio breakin' down a hype rhyme. To each his own, in its own regard, on its own terms, in its own specific genre. But like CC says, "Come on we like it all!" I like all types of music, even my ancestral music of India. It really surprises me that my friends who don't have such varied taste think that I would like music that crosses the gap between two diferent genres of music.Even though they don't care forit, they think that I would like a rock-rap type band, or things like that. I find that they are palatable, but I can't get into them they I do for SG. SG rocks in a rock frame of mind in the epitome of what expresionist rock should be about, and I thank and congratulate them for it. Anybody else? And I have noticed that SG fans are a very particular breed. I found that my 10 year old brother, whose tastes lean toward uptempo, techno music, in contrast to my own tendency toward darker, driving music, can agree on only one thing. SG kicks ass. SG bridges the musical gap between us, presumably because they are just really good. Or maybe it's in the genes.... Nanoo,Nanoo zelux (or the wanna-be artist formerly known as Justin Zachariah, who has a hard time using his real name because there are too many of us glorious progeny of Justinian on this list) p.s. I think it would be great for all the musicians on the list to jam together. Mybe if you all could somehow record your music digitally and send it to Seth he could put it up on the web for all to know and enjoy.... ------------------------------ From: Kate Mercier Subject: Mere Mortal I have to come out of my hermit-dom and say this: it IS possible for a mere mortal to create a fork necklace.

Did (Seth?) mention confusion over weather SOMMS was issued on vinyl? Well, before I was lucky enough to get SOMMS, I bought a JCP etched 12" with four tracks. Side One is JCP (album version), Stray Cat Blues, Into the Void (Sealth), and Somewhere (album version). Side Two is an etching of the metal skeleton on a cross from the JCP video. The album sleeve is the same skeleton (one side printed in blue and the other in yellow). The front jacket cover is cut open in the shape of a cross to reveal one sleeve skeleton. The back jacket cover is solid and shows an individual photo of each band member from the JCP video (the distorted hanging upside down scenes). Under the photos are the lyrics to JCP (with an error!). They typed 'carrying a LOUD' instead of 'carrying a LOAD'. Hope this clears some ?s.

Does Ben have any bones? I have never been to a Soundgarden concert. (I plan to remedy that sad situation this summer.) Ben hops, jumps, skips, bounces, and rolls across stage like a demon. Which according to some of you he may be. Are there any videos from the Superunknown tour? I also think Mailman is a under appreciated song. I believe that SG fans are unique.

I think we have a pretty good base for what we want on the T-shirt.... 1. The word "SOMMS" (not w/ mit.edu) printed somewhere on the shirt. 2. A picture of the famous "end of humanity" twisted fork. (no copyrighted ensignias, whatsoever) 3. The phrase "Posting with our good eye closed." definitely on the back! I think that's all we need...nothing too fancy.... Choosing the color will be a different story, but if those three items are on the shirt, I don't give a crap WHAT color it is as long as I can see 'em! Anyone agree with me??

I wish Chris would sing more like that in his deep voice. I've been listening to Louder Than Love a lot lately (decided I needed a break from BMF, my favourite), and really, Uncovered is a song I think worth discussing a bit. Apart from the great sound, it has very interesting lyrics. Does anyone know what it was actually written about? Was it written about a particular person, or thing? I think it could be simply talking about shame (hey Mr Shame have you got a name). That when someone has done something so bad (secrets are uncovered) then they feel really awful (naked and cold, mumbling and crying) because others around them feel such disgust and hatred for them. I'm not sure if CC wrote it with compassion for the person whose secret was uncovered, or whether he actually is so disgusted by him he really hates him. Or maybe it was not written about anything like this at all - just written in such a way that it would be interpreted like that. Often the way with Soundgarden songs - that's one of the reasons I am so attracted to this band! Can someone enlighten me here?

It does seem that menu.html is missing, so we can venture no further into the Official SG site until they fix it. However, I don't know how much of it has changed since a few days ago. Most of the files that used to be there are still there (band.html, fanclub.html, tour.html, albums.html, new.html (I think these were the 5 that were linked from the old index.html)). Some of the new files, like band-faq.html, which just appeared recently, are also still there. Of course, none of this means anything, because it's just as likely that they won't use any of these files. My guess is that the old index will be renamed to menu.html, accessible via the new swirly front door. On a side note, the link to the site from Rocktropolis now uses imusic.com instead of rocktropolis.com, so I guess it will only be in one place from now on.
