Chris is gorgeous... absolutely perfect... but his team sucks. Spurs rule!! Speaking of the guy... I've had a few women on the list... I'll call them the fellow LiS (Lech's in Soundgarden)... or maybe just LiC (Lech's in Chris)... anyway, a few of these really groovy people have written to tell me just how HOT Chris looked on that MTV interview thing. I don't watch TV, so I obviously don't have cable (which displeases a few of my friends mightily... and my roomie, 'cuz I refuse to split the bill with her... but she's a beotch, and I'll be rid of her soon)... so I don't have MTV, and I (poor pathetic soul that I am) didn't get to see him. But anyway... I'd like to thank my fellow LiC's for taking the time to let me know that I MUST see that interview. It's so nice to have friends... LiC's UNITE!!!!

Anyway, for anyone who hasn't seen Soundgarden on MTV, and wants to, but hasn't yet, The Week In Rock will be on MTV at 1:30 Eastern time today. Soundgarden is shown second, right after Tupac and Snoop Doggy Dogg. And if you're going to tape it, Soundgarden comes on right after Tupac and Dogg are asked about Dr. Dre. It's really worth taping.. =) I think so, anyway. That three-second segment of "Never Named" was enough to drive me clinically insane until May 21st. THE REALTORS ARE COMING! Oh, sorry. Back to the subject. Chris has sideburns now, too. I'm sure some people want to get that on tape.. =) Okey.. well, cya and things foreshocks ------------------------------ From: "Lori S. Bingel" Subject: my biggest Soundgarden-related mistake About 4 or 5 years ago, I was in some cheesy chain record store in Syracuse when I stumbled upon SOMMS for the first and last time. It was about 2 weeks after I had bought my first Soundgarden album - BMF on cassette, and I didn't have a CD player yet. I remember looking at it, saying "neat" (being a dumbass 16 year old), and putting it right back on the shelf. I think it was about $25. I AM A MORON!!! Who knows if I will ever be able to forgive myself for this... moral of story....see SOMMS, BUY SOMMS.

Too bad I don't have RC>cable, I really wanna hear that Never Named song. What's it sound like? I just noticed em =) Are you sure? Cause I've never seen himn with sideburns before. I mean he had lil sideburns before but now they go down to his jawline. Anyway what I've heard of Never Named, it's like not something you'd expect off of Badmotorfinger.. it kinda reminds me, what I've heard of the album in general, of a mix between Day I Tried to Live/My Wave/Head Down/Hater kinda stuff =) GOD, I CAN'T WAIT! I only heard one line worth of Never Named. I don't know what he said either, it sounded kinda like "i lay this song to rest" or something weird, and then it went into a guitar solo. It sounded cool, though =) And they played another song in the background, and it sounded like Head Down/Hater kinda stuff, I mean it had that certain sound to it, Soundgarden didn't write Superunknown II is what I mean to say. I can't wait. Of course, Soundgarden would NEVER write a Superunknown II, or a Badmotorfinger II, or a Louder Than Love II.. you get the point.

SG on the other hand is generally viewed as 'just another grunge band riding the Seattle wave.' Anyone who has taken any time to actually listen to SG, expecially their older material, would know that SG is not a band which is or has ever ridden on the coattails of another band. Musically, I feel that both bands are very accomplished in the songwriting field and both compare in the fact that all the members really do contribute to the sound as a whole. Neither band has any dead weight in it(Smashing Pumpkins anybody?). Stylewise I never saw the connection between LZ and SG except somewhat in the vocal department. I found that I really do agree with what Ross said about comparing to absolutly different styles and musical backgrounds. On the subject of Bonham vs. Cameron, I do feel that they do have one thing in common. Stylistic mastery. Bonham was a pounder without a peer and Cameron is perhaps the best at Syncopation I've heard in a long while. I cannot think of any other drummer who makes quite as good use of his cymbals range. The other thing they have in common for me is that I have no end of trouble trying to learn either of their drum tracks. Stephen ------------------------------ From: jpfreem@umich.edu Subject: Re: SOMMS? On SOMMS, I actually found a copy of the 2 disc album in a local store in the Used CD shelf for $15.95. I happily snatched it up and took it up to the cashier. The guy working probably noticed what a good deal I was getting pointed out that I could get a regular copy for around 9.95 hoping to persuade not buy the little gem. But I did not heed his advice and got more than a good deal. ------------------------------ From: MAYOR McCHEESE Subject: Re: I just don't get it!!! Half and Headdown are different, a refreshing break from Pop shmuck and even a diparture for SG. They are heavy in their own way, without being heavy sounding. I've always thought "Half" had a very "Indian" (as in India) feel to it. I've always thought of it as a rock song born from India's sitars more than the blue's harmonica's. George Harrisons sitar songs are a curiousity, whereas Half shows a true inspiration (even in the vocals) of the true music of India. More rock songs should have these influences . . . and I never make sense, do I?

My advice to anyone who is thinking of buying it off this guy....don't do it. SOMMS is not that hard to find that you should be bent over a barrel by some bloodsucker. I've seen five copies in Brisbane, Australia, so if you look round in the US it must be fairly easy to come by. ps. Right on Caryn, I bet this guy comes from a long line of ticket scalpers. ___________________________ = ALIVE IN THE SUPERUNKNOWN = =========================== ------------------------------ From: Dan Murphy Subject: i can't lurk forever! ok, raise your hands if you are dying to hear the new album! thought so...:) couple of things to address as i come out of lurker mode: bought the "hater" cd today for the unbelievable low price of $4.99. i swear, those people at reckless records will never figure me out - they price all the stuff i want that way it seems. :) does anyone know more about the album? specifically, is brian wood related to you-know-who? and WHY is matt holding a guitar in the picture? did anyone else find that odd? where is matt on vocals on this one? hope it's not him on "putrid!" and is "lion and lamb" supposed to be related to "whale and wasp?" hmm...one wonders... also picked up the 'home alive' cd's today for $12 (see! i told you they do this all the time!) and i really hope DOTU is similar to "kyle petty." this is the first time i have heard this one. also, Shroom, in your post re: chris' home phone number, i noticed that the reponse from "SGKOTS" was signed "AICFC." uh, are you sure that you weren't asking for layne or sean's home number? i think the knights of the soundtable know about AIC, but i don't think that they give credit to them! wink wink... and finally, for terri: i will take a picture of seattle when i am there next month. i am travelling there for the first time as i am planning to transfer to UW (Kim's alma mater, you know) for fall. you're welcome to come along! maybe some of us on the list could try to arrange a meeting for 5/21...anyone know about a listener party for the release? and has anyone received anything from SGKOTS re: DOTU? yours to deify, danno danno@wood.net cd pick of the week: "house of GVSB" ------------------------------ From: Dan Murphy Subject: more Hater stuff while listening to the Hater CD, i was suddenly reminded of "The Center for Disease Control Boys" when i got to track 9....anyone else experience this phenomenon (while getting an MRI)? :))) danno danno@wood.net ps. how did cameron and shepherd get connected to kristen barry? ------------------------------ End of somms Digest [Volume 2 Issue 95] ***************************************
