Or more importantly Down On The Upside?
I think it might have been Corgan who came up with and recorded that bass line, not sure though. Duga might be able to clarify. Last edited by SGR; 06-16-2010 at 03:32 PM. |

Naturally, I have to play the old-school card once again, and attest to the fact that I was wearing the **** out of my copy of Louder than Love months before Badmotorfinger was released. I thought it it was overproduced commercialized garbage. I quickly fell out of love with the band. Ultramega OK, Louder Than Love, and even Flower EP were all amazing, but the release of Badmotorfinger was really the watershed moment in the band's career when they truly became nothing more than another boring hanger-on to the new commercialized grunge bandwagon. I'm not saying they didn't produce any good music after that, but the raw intensity that was their trademark was gone forever.

I would say Alice In Chains got heavier as they progressed, Soundgarden did the opposite. You gotta listen to Superunknown if you haven't though. ****ing amazing album. |

I never got the logic of "more commercial = bad"
Like I'm sorry, Nevermind IS better than Bleach, that's just the way it is. No I'm pretty sure D'arcy did all the playing on Gish. The stuff about Billy Corgan playing all the bass is only true for Siamese Dream I think. |

That's what I was thinking, well at least Billy let her play(and sing lead) on Gish. Billy was probably under enough stress as it was that he didn't intend to act on his well-known perfectionist attitude.
