Cornell had a very distinctive voice, it's too bad he died so young.
That whole Grunge thing was a little, no, a lot, after my formative years and there were only a few songs I actually liked. Even the ones I did like I can't hardly stand to hear anymore because they got played to fucking death on the radio.
Cornell was a pretty cool dude though from what I ever heard.
Musicians dying all at once out of the blue always makes you go HMMMMM.
Hopefully it wasn't an unfortunate chemical experiment gone wrong.
I'm gonna spare you a Youtube tribute this time, if you want to hear some of his stuff it's easy to find.
Singer Chris Cornell, the lead vocalist for the bands Soundgarden and Audioslave, died Wednesday night in Detroit, his representative said. He was 52.
Brian Bumbery told the Associated Press in a statement that Cornell’s death was “sudden and unexpected” and said his wife and family was shocked.
The statement added that the family would be working closely with the medical examiner to determine the cause and asked for privacy.
As the lead singer for Seattle-based Soundgarden, Cornell helped architect the 90's grunge rock movement. He was also a Grammy award-winning, Golden Globe nominated singer, songwriter, guitarist, composer and lyricist.
In addition, Cornell became involved in philanthropy and started the Chris and Vicky Cornell Foundation to support children facing challenges, including homelessness, poverty, abuse and neglect.
