There was a battery operated hand that moved, and had 'Hands All Over' written on it plus a candle with a christian crucifiction scene on it that said 'Jesus Christ Pose'. The prices the guy was charging were a bit dubious though, $100 and $50 respectively (australian dollars). Does anyone else know about this stuff or anything like it? ___________________________ = ALIVE IN THE SUPERUNKNOWN = =========================== ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 14 Aug 1995 16:29:08 +1000 (GMT+1000) From: LITTLE JOE To: soundgarden list Subject: stickin up for Seth I'd have to agree with Seth about UltramegaOK. It's a fine album and contains some songs that are close to my favourites (Beyond the Wheel, Flower, Incessant Mace etc.) It's great to be able to go back and listen to the deep, dark roots of Chris' singing and songwriting. I can listen to Incessant Mace over and over and never get sick of it, and Beyond the Wheel.... need we say more. That's the wonderful thing about the evolution of their music, it's so diverse that you can never get sick of it. I will also take issue with anyone who writes off the first two albums as a learning experience for Chris and his singing. Of course it's a bit raw, but it wasn't produced and mixed like it is these days. I can't get enough of that cool dark side of their music, and it's still what I like most about the band (which is reflected in my love of songs like Fourth of July, and Limo Wreck etc. etc). I would strongly recommend to anyone that they should buy the Screaming Life/FOPP ep's. At first I bought them mainly to complete my Soundgarden discography, but the music is great. Hunted Down, Hand of God, Nothing to Say and Little Joe are fine songs. ___________________________ = ALIVE IN THE SUPERUNKNOWN = =========================== ------------------------------ Subject: RE: fav album From: jsimpson@mail03.mitre.org (Jamesetta Simpson) To: somms@MIT.EDU, gbf2033@InfoNET.st-johns.nf.ca (Tony Dawe) Date: Mon, 14 Aug 95 07:09:56 -0400 >what is evryones fav album out of: >1-louder than love >2-badmotorfinger >3-superunknown > >well what is it? >i like badmotorfinger the most. >bye >TOny > > /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ > \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ > /\Tony Dawe /\ > \/gbf2033@infonet.st-johns.nf.ca \/ > /\St.Johns InfoNET /\ > \/"I am you, you are me, \/ > /\ no one is themselves" /\ > \/"I am the law" \/ > /\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\ > \/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/\/ > > Louder than Love = a band filled with primal lust Badmotorfinger = a band finding it place Superunknow = a band refinded and ready for the long stay Each album had it's reason and each was the best for it's season.

The basic song writing is good. Chris is really pushing it, but hasn't the control he has in Louder than Love or Badmotorfinger. The best thing on the tape was Kim, for the first time I really could hear and feel his talent. I know Kim is a great player and SG would not be as big as they are now with out him. But until I replayed the UltramegOK did I understand how much I under estimated him. He really stands out on this album, his playing gives substance to UltramegaOK . I still have trouble liking UltramegaOK, for some reason it just leaves me cold. I guess we just can't like everything! Jamie >I'd have to agree with Seth about UltramegaOK.

I find it to be a great stress reliever and if anything good comes out of it than that is a bonus. I have played with several bands but have only toured (mid-west) and recorded with one. I enjoy playing my own music (I like to switch styles a lot) but in terms of Soundgarden my favorite song to play is Little Joe. Some one mentioned the Trumpet. A friend of mine was at a Jesus Lizzard show and for some reason he brought his trumpet (he is actually a very good guitar player). I the middle of the Jesus Lizzard set he got up on stage and started playing the trumpet. They actually gave him a mic and he played the rest of the set (between stage dives and goofy dancing). That was almost two years ago and people are still talking about it.

If you were to get these guys together they may just put out a classical album. How are you going to get all of these EGOs to play together? Did anyone know that Les Claypool had been turned down by Metallica for Cliff's spot (sore spot for ol' Les) BIG QUESTION!!! Why Lars Ulrich???? Lars by far is the worst drummer that any of the other guys are currently playing with. I once saw Tim Alexander (Primus) play some Metallica songs at a concert (part of Les's protest of Metallica) and he made Lars look like a fool. Tim didn't have to jump up and down like a midget monkey. Matter of fact he didn't move much at all (sign of a good drummer). Lars lacks creativity. There is more to drumming than playing fast, hard and 4/4. There is no such thing as the Ultimate band. You can't please everyone.

Anyhow, when you love Soundgarden, how could you have low morale?!? In the mean time, my finger hasn't really been on Soundgarden's pulse - I'm still getting into the swing of this mailing list... Does anyone know if and/or when Soundgarden will be coming anywhere near Australia? I know it wouldn't be a big money earner for them, but judging by my friends (and the number of students coming on the list from University of Queensland), there's a good support for them Down Under.

I would strongly recommend I would still argue that to compare songs from soundgarden's early days to what they are doing now is a moot point. practically all of their more recent work is better in terms of both songwriting and musicianship. I'm not putting down their first two albums here, but if the wreck was going down and I had to choose between screaming life and superunknown, I'm afraid the former wouldn't get a look in. having said that, there is some good stuff on soundgarden's early records. I would not write them off as a learning experience, but that is actually what they are. and it's a learning experience I would like to have had. ----------------------------------- a thousand doors, a thousand lies rooms a thousand years wide ----------------------------------- ------------------------------ Date: Tue, 15 Aug 1995 10:37:12 +1000 (GMT+1000) From: blind dog To: The Garden Subject: the wreck is not going down yes, morale is high. and the list will probably be better without a bunch of people who say they can't find anything about soundgarden in their mailbox, but who also can't find any messages regarding unsubscribing and how not to do it. are we worried about them jumping ship?

That would be my number one request live, it's such a good song. Regarding blind dog's post asking about "No Attention", it's a very fine song, it changes key and mood so many times. Every time you think it's about to end it breaks into another stanza. For all of you who want to find it it it's on the Pearl Jam Self Pollution Radio bootleg. I hired it out from my local CD library: stroke of luck eh :) ___________________________ = ALIVE IN THE SUPERUNKNOWN = =========================== ------------------------------ End of somms Digest [Volume 1 Issue 14] ***************************************
