Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger | 90s Album Review
from Dig Me Out: 90s & 00s Rock · host Dig Me Out
Badmotorfinger sits in the middle of the Soundgarden discography at an interesting crossroads. With new bass player Ben Shepherd on board, the band expanded upon their Black Sabbath meets Black Flag twist on metal with precision riffs and rhythms that integrate odd time signatures and alternate guitar tunings. While other bands were relegated to in-the-know hardcore fandom, thanks to the once-in-a-generation vocals of Chris Cornell, Soundgarden began their ascent as a commercial entity on MTV and mainstream radio. Songs In This Episode: Intro - Outshined 4:39 - Birth Ritual 29:01 - Jesus Christ Pose 36:05 - Somewhere 45:18 - Mind Riot 50:39 - Room A Thousand Years Wide Outro - Rusty Cage Support the podcast, join the DMO UNION at Patreon.
