I've been doing quite a bit of designs these past weeks and this work being of the nature that makes me think hard, I've started listening to my power trip music to help me work. In whats been a habit from young, I need to listen to music to be able to study something or to solve problems.
I am listening again to grunge mainly now, namely Soundgarden and Monster Magnet. As with all music I listen to, I could care a lot about the lyrics. So the appeal with grunge is not just the music, but the attitude the lyrics express or the general mood of that time.
I keep playing Outshined quite a few times and though I guess Cornell is not recognized very talented vocalist in the traditional sense, he is just awesome in this song. At the risk of sounding pretentious, his voice is primal in this song especially when he growls with such intensity.
Listen to the song from 3:35 to 4:16 and you will know why I love this song so. Makes me wanna scream along with him.
RIP Chris!
