Music: Chris Cornell, sensing a musical dead-end, reunites Soundgarden

  • Remember these guys? Of course you do. The first shot in the Grunge revolution, Soundgarden, plans to reunite in 2010, according to Billboard. And just in time, too. Lead singer Chris Cornell has had a post-Soundgarden career that’s among the worst in rock music, including these missteps:
  • moody Cornell’s first solo album, “Euphoria Morning,” was way closer to Jeff Buckley’s sound than Soundgarden.
  • super Cornell then turned most of the members of Rage Against the Machine into mush with Audioslave.
  • sleepy Cornell’s second solo disc, “Carry On,”  was worse than Audioslave and had a boring “Billie Jean” cover.
  • wtf?? Cornell then made “Scream,” one of 2009’s worst records, with Timbaland. Atone for your sins! source
