    Soundgarden had some good deep tracks, better than the other big three, IMO. I don't listen to grunge music all that often because it's generally bummer music and this world is fucked up enough as is. I don't need a lot of reminders.

    Do you actually feel bummed out listening to it? I don't really get that way listening to it and a lot of times it makes me feel better or I'm just listening to some good music cranked up loud.

    I will say I listened to some Soundgarden after Chris Cornell died and had an eerie moment or two because of the lyrics, but it's not like all the songs are "bummer" types, despite the dark lyrics.

    You didn't choose Soundgarden, Soundgarden chose you.

    Despite being in HS during the peak years of the Seattle grunge era, this a rock and roll debate where I am not very emotionally invested. When you're a kid with limited disposable income, buying the cassettes and CD's of these groups just wasn't as high of a priority as getting all the Stones, Zep, Hendrix, Doors, Floyd, albums, so I just kind of skipped over this period of music. But I didn't grow up in WA either so I think that's part of it as well. In hindsight, I think there was a lot of quality music here, some of which holds up pretty well 25 years later, especially In Utero, MTV Live and Vitalogy. I think No Code while have a good amount of filler, has a few killer trackers.

    I like Pearl Jam, but they are #4 out of the big four Seattle bands. They do get repetitive to me though and I have to take them in small doses.

    Too hard for me to choose from the other 3. It depends on the day.

    Someone mentioned STP as grunge. That was imposed by their record label before their debut album.

    If you're talking performing live, peak Scott Weiland was on another level as a front man.

    Didn't know that about STP. What kind of music did they make before the label switched them up? I'd like to commend that label, actually. Was a very wise decision.

    "Pearl Jam doesn't suck, they're from Seattle."

    "Oh yeah."
