I don't personally feel that Superunknown is the best material they've ever put out because of its commercial success, but one could argue that an artist's most commercially successful album would make it their best work in the regard of that particular perspective. The original context of "best album" was vague to begin with. But as you said, it's a subjective topic, so obviously there can be no factual conclusion one way or the other. The fact that I prefer Superunknown over any of their other work probably has a lot to do with that album being the first album of theirs I got into. I'm certainly not trying to start a fight over the whole thing and it doesn't sound like you are either. This is just a clash of opinions. Badmotorfinger is my 2nd favorite album of theirs and DOTU is 3rd, I just feel that Superunknown was the album that they hit their stride, dynamically and artistically. I really tried to like King Animal but I just don't care for it.

how do you figure it's factually incorrect? my statement was of course my opinion, guess I should've put an IMO after it. I'm curious to hear how you think it's a fact that superunknown is NOT their best album. If anything, I could make an argument that my opinion is a fact. Soundgarden achieved its biggest success with the 1994 album Superunknown, which debuted at number one on the Billboard charts and yielded the Grammy Award-winning singles "Black Hole Sun" and "Spoonman". cited from wikipedia.org http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soundgarden

are you a Steelers fan too?

I've listened to the whole album this morning. It was just ok for me, not great. Definitely had more of a Thrice feel than PCH but honestly, I was looking for more of that folk element that PCH had. I think he should leave the Thrice sound out of his solo work, but that's just me. The track "It's Not Enough" was probably my favorite, very powerful song.

Temple Of The Dog S/T Boot and MOV REISSUE
thesecrets0308 replied to lexicondevil's topic in Vinyl Collective Message Board
I borrowed the blue/green colored boot from a buddy and I actually thought it sounded quite good. The worst part about it was the cover, definitely amateur work. The record itself was acceptably quiet. I wouldn't buy it just because it's a bootleg, but hopefully soon we'll have our prayers answered and get a proper release. Maybe RSD 2014? -

Albums That Should Be Pressed on Vinyl

Yes, yes and yes. I also would really like to see a REISSUE of Filter's Short Bus. Guys, every time I look through this thread, I see a ton of really good suggestions. It's good to see that there is still people out there that like good music.
