They were both on the greatest hits album. I don't think Outside World is a deep cut.

Anything they've done is a deep cut compared to Black Hole Sun. Even Spoonman and The Day I tried To Live.

true, but of all their singles Blow Up the Outside World is the closest they ever got to replicating Black Hole Sun's success; its also always struck me like a more clichéd and formulaic rehash of The Day I Tried to Live too.

so here's an actual awesome deep cut

I actually don't like this band, except for the occasional listen to Black Hole Sun.

I find his voice really annoying, for some reason. Like, when I hear it, I think of cliched rock images. It might be just me, I'm the only person I know who doesn't like his voice.

Louder Than Love FTW.

Hands All Over is my favorite track from that one, but Ugly Truth is a good one too.

Powerful, resonant pharyngeal singing and Chris uses the head voice excessively. Not for everyone, but you have to respect the talent. It's the same with Robert Plant, no middle ground in the love/dislike.

Cornell may be the most powerful screamer ever. BadMotorFinger being the best display of his abilities.

indeed, but Hands All Over was a single and i was shooting for a deep cut hehehe debated on posting Full On Kev's Mom for the lulz instead but this track was always a stand out for me. the song's message really resonated with me back in the day and never really faded. then again that's one of the bigger strengths of not creating topical media.

The problem with Soundgarden is the lack of great live recordings, which sucks as I would like a Soundgarden live album. Here's another great underrated Soundgarden song.

FRESH TENDRILS LIVE!!!

^ A Soundgarden unplugged would have been great as well. Could have included a few Temple of the Dog cuts in it, I'd have had it in heavy rotation in my play list.

I'm pretty sure Soundgarden was offered to do it, but they declined, as accoustic really isn't their thing.
