SOUNDGARDEN "telephantasm" cd,2010.
one of the few dud albums recommended by Corey...guess it happens once in a while, and this was "the crappy album" he gave me this year out of some 20 recommendations....
this is an apparent "best of" set, i'd hate to hear their studio albums because this is real bad!.
its a shame really because i did get Chris Cornell's "carry on" solo set and thought that was ok.
the thing that i probably dislike about this one is Chris' voice,not sure what it is but i just dont like his voice here.
the music for the most part is unbearable grating and screeching rubbish...i find it neither heavy rock nor alternative rock...its weird shit!
"allmusic" rates this 4.5/5 or 2.7 on the MRHS rating system....mine is about half that!
I DO NOT LIKE THIS ALBUM
