During the mid-90’s, you had a lot of really good rock groups. One of the best with their own distinct sound was Soundgarden. Fronted by oustanding vocalist Chris Cornell, they had a few hits from their Superunknown album including Grammy winner Spoonman and of course their best hit song Black Hole Sun. If you’ve seen this video, then you know just how cool it is. A little bit odd but effective with a great Seattle rock sound combined with Cornell’s lyrics.

Soundgarden: “Black Hole Sun”

It’s too bad that they didn’t stick together too long breaking up in 1997 due to what else but “creative differences.” Cornell went on to form the group Audioslave with former members from Rage Against The Machine putting together a couple of solid albums before splitting as he decided to go solo.

In any event, their music lives on and Cornell continues to put out albums and tour. Rage Against The Machine is back together as well. So it’s not all bad.

In the end, it’s all about the music.
