This is a great opening track from 1994’s blockbuster of an album Superunknown.
Gritty lyrics, sick guitar solos and Matt Cameron holding it down with his drumming skills, “Let Me Drown” is your classic Soundgarden tune, and one of my favorites byt them.
Recently, Cornell has been using it as the opening number during his concerts, while […]

I’ve been on a little Portishead kick lately. I’m sure you have to remember this band from Bristol, England once you hear “Sour Times”.
“Sour Times” appears on the band’s 1994 debut album Dummy. The track was also remixed and released as a double CD in Canada in 1995, along with the track “Glory Box”, for […]

R.E.M. is currently streaming the first single from their upcoming release Accelerate, which comes out April 1.
You can check out the track, “Supernatural Superseious”, on R.E.M.’s official site.
It’s a pretty standard and straight forward rock song, but it’s still sweet. I think it’s a catchy tune.
Last month the band shot the video for “Supernatural Superserious” in […]

“Blow Up The Outside World” was the third single from Soundgarden’s final album, 1996’s Down on the Upside.
This song may have been played out, but it still kicks you in the face, like most of Soundgarden’s songs. It’s perfect to blast when you’re having one of those days where just want to tell everybody off, […]

This song is defiantly a guilty pleasure of mine. It’s almost 100% pop, but that actually works for it, because it’s still a great song
Even though it’s a bit poppy, it’s still a downer of a song. The way Johnston delivers it vocally, it makes you really for him. To me, it sounds like it’s about […]

I was reluctant to make another Pearl Jam post, but I seriously can’t get this song out of my head right now.
“Thumbing My Way” is off of 2002’s Riot Act, and in my opinion one of the greatest songs that the band have created.
The lyrics are what make this song so great. My interpretation is […]

Can anyone really bash the simple, poppy melodies from Evan Dando and company?
Take for example the title track from 1992’s It’s A Shame About Ray. The lyrics are kind of dark (If I make it through today,
I’ll know tomorrow not to leave my feelings out on display), but the music has a little sunshine to it. With the […]

Leave it to Green Day to take this commonly used phrase (and let’s not forget true) and turn it into a kick ass song.
“Nice Guys Finish Last” was the first track off of 1997’s Nimrod, which happened to be the band’s fifth studio album. The track also appeared on Green Day’s 2001 greatest hits compilation International Superhits! […]

What a great track from 1995’s 100% Fun.
It’s classic 90’s. You know, being just a tad self-deprecating, but we’ve all been there before.
Seriously, this one of my favorite songs ever.

I’m a sucker for Christmas and Pearl Jam, so it’s only fitting that I would love this cover.
“Someday At Christmas” has been previously performed by The Jackson 5 and Stevie Wonder. Pearl Jam’s version appeared on their 2004 Christmas Single; which members of the 10 Club receive annually.
“Someday At Christmas” was already a classic, but […]
