R.I.P. Chris Cornell

[Weston]

Figured I'd make a thread to say RIP Chris Cornell. I was in high school when the Seattle sound came around, so Soundgarden had a big impact on my music taste while growing up. He's once again in the ranks with Layne Staley and Kurt Cobain. I guess Eddie Vedder is the last front man from the big 4 from Seattle.

I still listen to Audioslave when i work out. He was the man

One of the best voices. Sad to lose his talents so soon.

Hanged himself right after a concert, such a shame.

It really makes you wonder why someone with so much talent, fame, and money would wanna end their life.

Badmotorfinger is still one of my favorite albums. I was also in high school during the grunge era. All these great musicians leaving us at such an early age. And they were just talking about a Temple of the Dog reunion very recently. Just horrible news.

I'm suspecting there is something more to this story than some guy just performing a great show and ending it an hour later.

That's what I was thinking. Almost like another Kurt Cobain situation

Chris Cornell seemed pretty conscious though and for whatever reason he prob said his goodbyes to his family without them realizing it and played his final show without anyone realizing it at the time then went to his room and ended it. Kurt kinda did the same thing really.

Not many people could scream like Cornell.

I guess its not real suprising the grunge era bands have offed themselves
Some really depressing music

Agreed. Sounds like @gr8whitetrukker is kinda talkin' smack. We may need to find some pipe-swingin' mother fuckers to get to work on that boy.

Chris Cornell admitted he had severe depression issues , his music reflected that . Still a great loss in the rock world .

Smack, no. Just not a HUGE fan. Grunge in general is OK. I remember when nirvana and company was NEW you know? Wasnt really my bag back then either. Maybe a lil

Then 2 months later, on what would have been Chris Cornell's 53rd birthday, Chester Bennington does the same thing. Right in the middle of a tour too. Such a shame.
