Title: Temple Of The Dog Post by: GNR_Green on April 03, 2004, 08:25:45 AM Has anyone else heard of Temple of the dog? I accidentally stumbled upon it while looking at Pearl Jam cd's on Amazon. It's basically a band made up of members of Pearl Jam with Chris Cornell on vocals. It came out in 1991. Eddie Vedder even appears on one or two tracks, so that's two of the best vocalists on one album! Stone Gossard is one of the guitarists.
When I saw it I was shocked that I'd never seen it mentioned anywhere before, it's a good album. It sounds more like PJ than Soundgarden, I think you get the picture. Cornell sounds fu(king amazing on the 1st track, I think it proves what a legend he is.

Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: jarmo on April 03, 2004, 10:37:04 AM Classic album.
By the way, "Times Of Trouble" is the same song as Pearl Jam's "Footsteps". It has Chris' lyrics while "Footsteps" has Eddie's lyrics. /jarmo Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Timothy on April 03, 2004, 11:07:39 AM Classic album. Damn your right I never noticed that before.By the way, "Times Of Trouble" is the same song as Pearl Jam's "Footsteps".

Say Hello 2 Heaven and Hunger Strike are amazing songs, my 2 fave on the album. : ok:
I agree, you guys should definately check out Mother Love Bone. It's not so much grunge as it is metal...grunge-metal maybe?? ??? lol. and Andy Wood has a great voice. Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: ckgent on April 08, 2004, 02:52:50 AM mother love bone were awsome. Andrew wood was a great rocker who had an unfortunate addiction which took him away from us. Chloe dancer/crown of thorns is an awsome song, one of my favorite tunes ever. And the album is worth checking out.
Taime from faster pussycat wrote a song about him call mr love dog, it is also a great tune. Andrew wood had a lot of effect on some great bands and its a shame his never got the chance to do more.

It's not so much grunge as it is metal...grunge-metal maybe?? ??? lol. and Andy Wood has a great voice. I don't think it's metal at all...I guess it's in the Grunge category, since Grunge doesn't stand for one type of music, more about a movement in music, originally from one special place, Seattle. they were part of that. but music wise, I would say MLB and Pearl Jam are both Hard Rock bands : ok: agreed ckgent, Chloe Dancer/Crown Of Thorns is one of my fav songs as well! :peace: Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: jarmo on April 08, 2004, 10:31:48 AM ~ Temple of the Dog ~ GREEN RIVER & SOUNDGARDEN. 80's SEATTLE BANDS MAKING HUGE SOUNDS.

I like Temple of The Dog for Cornells Lyrics and Vocals. I Still HATE Pearl Jam. Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Jaded on August 26, 2004, 04:39:40 PM what do you think of the soundgarden/pearl jam band?
Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Wheres Izzy on August 26, 2004, 05:49:08 PM I only heard the one song "goin hungry". I always loved soundgarden but have always thought pearl jam was insanely over rated. Is the rest of the album any good?
Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Skeletor on August 26, 2004, 06:27:39 PM I only heard the one song "goin hungry". The song is actually called Hunger Strike. Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: oneway23 on August 26, 2004, 10:17:34 PM The PJ gig w/ the Temple reunion last October was surreal....As if that werent enough, John Frusciante and Jack Johnson (Not a fan of his, but hey, they played a Ramones track) jammed a few tracks, Jack Irons came out for dual drummers on a few tracks, Cornell did a 2 song solo set, and Reach Down was over 10 min...Mccready was hypnotic and stunning...It was the epitome of what a live experience should be...
Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Skeletor on August 27, 2004, 03:48:16 AM The PJ gig w/ the Temple reunion last October was surreal.... Sounds cool, are there any videos of that circulating? Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: tim_m on August 27, 2004, 06:23:00 AM i believe there is a dvd of this going around
Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Skeletor on August 27, 2004, 06:41:24 AM i believe there is a dvd of this going around Cool, have to keep an eye out for it.. Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Jaded on August 27, 2004, 04:21:53 PM The PJ gig w/ the Temple reunion last October was surreal.... Sounds cool, are there any videos of that circulating? i know it's not exactly what you're after but here's hunger strike live from that show (audio only) http://audioslaved.com/concert/102803_21_hunger_strike.mp3 Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: jarmo on August 27, 2004, 05:00:39 PM Great album, great band combining two great bands that came from Seattle.
Check out Pearl Jam's "Footsteps" if you like "Times Of Trouble". It's the same song but with Eddie's lyrics instead of Chris'. /jarmo Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Skeletor on August 27, 2004, 05:02:39 PM i know it's not exactly what you're after but here's hunger strike live from that show (audio only) Awesome clip, thanks a lot for the link! : ok: If only I could get the visual as well.. Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Jaded on August 27, 2004, 05:13:55 PM i know it's not exactly what you're after but here's hunger strike live from that show (audio only) Awesome clip, thanks a lot for the link! : ok: If only I could get the visual as well.. that's ok- my friend actually found it- not me ;) Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Ignatius on August 27, 2004, 10:05:49 PM Great album, great band combining two great bands that came from Seattle. Check out Pearl Jam's "Footsteps" if you like "Times Of Trouble". It's the same song but with Eddie's lyrics instead of Chris'. /jarmo Same chords but different melody and lyrics. I do like Footsteps much better though. Times of Trouble is prob my favorite song with Hunger Strike. Chris vocals are out of this world in that song. Edit: it didn't make any sense, now did it? I meant to say " Call me a dog" it's one of my favorite tracks....not "times of trouble" Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: tim_m on August 27, 2004, 11:29:40 PM i believe there is a dvd of this going around Cool, have to keep an eye out for it.. it's not an offical dvd or anything just an amateur recording i know i've seen it on sharingthegroove and on suprnova i wanted to d/l it so bad but i don't have a dvd burner Title: Re: Temple Of The Dog Post by: Butch Français on August 28, 2004, 11:47:45 AM incredible album!
