Love or hate his music Chris Cornell was a hell of a singer. I fucking love Soundgarden and while Audioslave never quite lived up to the hype I still really enjoy a lot of their songs
Temple of the Dog was amazing though.
This really fucking sucks. They don't know what happened other than it being "sudden and unexpected"

I feel his loss more than I might have suspected; perhaps more because of its unexpected suddenness.
We are diminished.
Cut to 1996. My cousin and I had rented a PS1 from Blockbuster, and one of the games we rented for the weekend was Road Rash.
The riff clicked first, but god help me the scream during the chorus set my brain on fire. The tragedy for me was 'Rusty Cage' wasn't getting much radio play by that time and my music-fu was profoundly weak, so it took me years until I got the Internet and figured out just who that was that blew my teenage mind those years back. Until I got Internet access, I'd always thought of Soundgarden as the 'Black Hole Sun' guys, and though I liked that song it never occurred to me that they did that amazing song from that game I played nonstop for one weekend.
Cornell's voice is goddamn legendary. For my money, there's no better rock and roll scream than his.
Cobain. Weiland. Staley. Cornell. We're running tragically short on legit grunge singers.

He was my favorite. Superunknown was the first CD I ever owned and I still have it to this day.
Rest in peace Chris Cornell
Think I'll go listen to Wooden Jesus and cry

At once point between songs, Cornell stopped to point out the backwards mirror set up, and admitted that they just did it because they thought it would be weird to do.
BUT
He did easily the best James Bond theme and I will always fight that fight
Why yes. Yes he did.

Chris Cornell sang the soundtrack to my middle school years
as if one can do such a thing
Cornell and Soundgarden have always been some of my favorites.
RIP
It's not fair, I know he had more music in him.
It's incredible and listening to him do Thank You from Zeppelin is breaking me down right now.
Is that the one where he sang the stripped down, bluesy Billy Jean cover?
Because that's an incredible cover.

My new novel: Maledictions: The Offering. Now in Paperback!
That is not on this. He does an incredible version of on Black Days and Call Me a Dog though.
Soundgarden and Temple of the Dog were excellent, Audioslave was pretty good
But I have gotten so much joy out of how awful that album he did with Timbaland was, it is my favorite thing
It makes me so happy whenever I remember it, which is the best you can hope for with a severe career misstep
good god

Police are treating the death as a suicide
Detroit police are saying this is a possible suicide and I can't fucking deal with that.

Please.
Everytime a celebrity I love dies from suicide it scares the shit out of me because I've been there and I want to believe that I'll never go back.
Chris Cornell was probably one of my favorite frontmen. he had vocals like no one else. i remember when he struggled with smoking and was trying to quit because it was going to eventually take out his amazing voice. i clearly remember being inspired specifically by that. i also tried (unsuccessfully) to impress a girl by trying sing like him.
no one can sing like him. no one ever will. damn.
