Most people know that grunge in the uk is not the most popular type of rock music around,but if you are going to listen to anyone it should be Nirvana or Soundgarden.
On here you get the Best bits of a long career fronted by Chris Cornell (now of supergroup Audioslave.
All the tracks a apart from tracks 1-3 are of very high quality, From the hard Grumble of "jesus christ pose" to the deep and depressing "fell on black days" other highlights include "black hole sun","pretty noose","the day i tried to live" all anthems.
Soundgarden might not be for blink 182,linkin park lovers,but anyone who likes rock music with a hard and meaningful edge should check this out.

This is an awesome collection, really collecting together most of the best of Soundgarden. Fell on Black Days is seriously underrated, and is possibly the best song they've done, but what happened to Like Suicide? Essential! Fantastic apart from that omission, but really worth getting if you want a sample of Soundgarden. Go on, you know you want it...

No offense to audioslave fans out there, but this is an awesome starting point if you're looking to get into Cornell's better work.
Kicking off with the brooding "Nothing To Say" (check out that heavy-as-sin bass line), the first few tracks showcase the 'Garden's earlier efforts, but it's only when you get to the "Badmotorfinger" era and onward that the full force of Soundgarden hits you (I'm going to overlook "Black Hole Sun"), from the brutal "Jesus Christ Pose" and "Outshined" to the (comparatively) light "Day I Tried To Live", Fell On Black Days" and Burden In My Hand".
This is an awesome starting point for getting into Soundgarden and will lure you into buying more of their back catalogue (do it, it's money well spent).

As a new comer to Soundgarden, getting the greatest hits made sense. I'd heard only a few tracks before purchase, but a lot of praise. Was not dissapointed! Read more

This another excellent cd from soundgarden. Some really good tracks such as 'black old sun'. Not all the songs are a 100% but still worth listening too. Worth a look.
