Superunknown (studio album) by Soundgarden

Classic Mult-Platinum Grunge/Hard Rock album, only problem is it has some filler tracks on it and goes on for a little too long.

There's quite an overlying darkness resonating on this. Like a grunge Sabbath. Class songwriting as there's almost no filler. My only gripe is I find it a bit too long overall given the deep tones throughout.

This is the pinnacle of Seattle music. There are more famous and more popular, but this album brought everything together at a level that transcended everything that was being released at the time.

Listening to this again felt brought up so many memories of youthful angst. Each song pushes past grunge-era cliches in a unique way.

My absolute favorite of all the grunge albums and my absolute album of all time and an album that’s as amazing as everyone says it is.

Very good grunge album, but its length holds it back from being one of my personal favorites, there is a lot of great stuff here, but also a fair amount of filler and tracks longer than they need to be.

Their most quality and consistent album. Nothing before or after was quite as tight as they had it here. One of the quintessential grunge albums of the 1990s.

This is a very similar record to Badmotorfinger in relation to layout, style and quality. The layout is similar with most of the elite songs coming near the start or on the first half of the album. The quality then slowly drifts off the closer you get to the end. They seem to be full of experimentation and ideas at the start and by the end it becomes repetitive and a bit dull. The quality is still present on this release with some outstanding songs such as Black Hole Sun and Spoonman but they just don't maintain this. Cornell's voice, just like on most of their releases, is excellent and he makes even the more dull sounding songs have character and gives them some much needed life. Overall, I absolutely love Soundgarden's style of music but they can't remain consistent with their quality on their records which holds them back in my opinion especially on this release.

Obra-prima de sue período! Sempre impactante!

Second favourite Soundgarden album after Badmotorfinger. Agree with other comments that a little over long but still an album with great moments. worth owning and playing on a regular basis although I tend to play the first 50% more than the second.
