    They definitely deserved a bid to my tournament over AIC.

    Flashbacks... First time I heard the intro to Loud Love and suddenly realized the guitar had been replaced by Cornell's voice 14 year old me got goosebumps, and stopped thinking about naked chicks for a good 3,4 minutes.

    No celebrity death has hit me harder. Can't really recall anyone close.

    Do wish they'd called the album "Louder Than Fuck", though.

    Sounds like we're about same age. First song I heard from that album was Gun on the now-deceased KISW New Music Hour (oh how I loved that show). Not even one of the best songs on the album but still was a complete game-changer for me musically. Louder Than Love became my personal soundtrack to my freshman season of football.

    Mom and stepdad had KISW on constantly in 80's. Loved that shit. As young kid was amazed at the many failed attempts to "Stump Slaton"

    The Throbber so wanted to bone Robin. Maynard not so much..

    That deep cigarette voice was hot.

    Back when radio shows weren’t simulcast on TV. Because until the inter webs, the Throbber had no clue she wasn’t all that hot. Sorta but not really.

    The imagination was a wonderful thing.

    This was the first grunge CD I bought. I had cassette demos of Mother Love Bone and AIC that had been given to me. But this was my first CD.

    That's where I bought/shoplifted all my CDs and cassettes.

    Yes, I was an idiot teenager with an issue with boundaries
