Weird how Cameron achieved this monopoly on grunge drumming
Eddie Vedder's struggles with stardom have a concreteness missing from more mythic epics of resistance...
their little war on ticketmqster ended with 7 people dying

I adore better man but I agree otherwise besides that I think VS is for the most part an improvement on Ten. They have the same number of good songs but VS has this rawer quality. Rats, blood, elderly woman, daughter, dissident, glorified G (which always felt new wavy to me)
He's 5'7
That's a bold faced lie.
Look 5'6 here. Cornell is over 6 foot so the difference looks right
He's not even good
Neither is grunge.
definitely never impressed me, he sounds better in Soundgarden or Temple of Dog
I liked some songs off this album back in the 90s when it came out, but I never felt the need to relisten
Now when I think about it, it all sounds like something between a modernised Neil Young and folk rock. Which isn't bad in itself, just saying that in 1994 this didn't feel new, it reinforced the impression grunge was on its way out and they didn't have any idea where to take rock next. So they fell back on doing something like this
good grunge is as good as good classic/hard rock
