By the way, Hal, it breaks my heart to see that the review of Paris, Texas is missing... If you don't have it planned, I'll consider doing it myself, what do you think?

bravo reverse: don't let it slip away. as for the issue raised by Nick and Hal, I completely agree: "i'll take care of you" is a great album, especially the cover of badi-da by Fred Neil which is fantastic.

what I miss: not much to say about the RTs, they were great, even though those "twin infinitives" ones were a bit tricky. A mix between a child playing with a rock toy and a coroner intent on dissecting the corpse. fantastic review.

Up until "Superunknown," Soundgarden consistently produced great albums; the only dreadful record in their catalog is "Down on the Upside." Personally, I prefer the ones featuring Yamamoto, especially "Louder Than Love," where the blending of hard rock, post-punk, and experimental aspirations reaches its peak. "Badmotorfinger" is a classic, no arguments there. "Superunknown" has a more traditional feel, but it showcases truly vibrant nuances; it's still a remarkable work.

Particular album. Hiro Yamamoto, the backbone of the early Soundgarden, as well as the new wave soul of the group, was gone. This somewhat reflects in the sound which, in my opinion, doesn't move forward much. Aside from, of course, the magnificent insights of a Kim Thayil never so inspired: his guitar parts in tracks like "Jesus Christ Pose" are fabulous, the definitive crossroads of hard rock, punk, and quasi-industrial wave, while in "Mind Riot" he paints an impossible hybrid between Sonic Youth noise and Zeppelin-esque surges: almost a modern psychedelia.
Fundamental album.
