Chris Cornell on '92 GNR/Axl

[jarmo]

Kiss my Axl id jump but then who would support you ,your crackhead mom and your retarded little brother who eats his own shit and walks around goin "yabba yabba yabba"?

You make yourself seem like a really smart guy when you post shit like that.

Please save that kind of shit for the Bon Jovi boards.

Same goes for Kiss my Axl's comments. It's fucking pointless.

Soundgarden are ok I guess but Mother Love Bone?

U would be happy if CD sounded like a MLB cd?

Its not dissing MLB per se

but Ive waited too long for CD and I think more a long the lines of Pink Floyd The Wall, Led Zepplin 4, The white Album u know?

not a fuckin MLB cd

that would be like me saying, If the new Bon Jovi cd is as good as Britny Fox, Ill be thrilled.

Cornell is a good vocalist but Axl Rose *to borrow from Pulp Fiction* isnt in the same ball park, the same league, he isnt even the same fuckin sport.

gotta disagree there (agree in MLB tho)

Cornell from a purely technical standpoint, has it all over Axl. You could argue however, that Axl sings with more personality or feeling, which in some part Id agree with

But I love Cornells voice and he sure has the range, and to reiterate, technically he's a better singer than Axl IMO.

But that's kind of futile, kinda like comparing Bucket to Slash etc...

Axl has better range than Cornell. Yes Axl said in the past that Chris burys me (axl), but Axl was just  being humble. Axl has like 8 different voices ,Chris has like two.

Some like Coke some like Pepsi.  They are both great vocalists but to say Cornell doesn't compare to Axl does show a vast degree of ignorance.  Personal opinion is that Layne Staley was better than both....

sorry

Some like Coke some like Pepsi.? They are both great vocalists but to say Cornell doesn't compare to Axl does show a vast degree of ignorance.? Personal opinion is that Layne Staley was better than both....

U are gonna say something about ignorance and then say that last comment? personal opinion or not Layne Staley? are u serious?

[jameslofton29]

D, Soundgarden has some songs that, if they weren't Soundgarden songs and were in Axl's arsenal of "Big Guns", you would definitely love them. 'Hands All Over', 'Nothing To Say', 'Room a Thousand Years Wide', '4th of July', 'Mailman', 'Head Down',etc. Maybe I was grasping at straws on the MLB comparison. But that is a kick ass album. MLB had alot of potential. If Andrew Wood had not died, Pearl Jam would have never existed.

[gilld1]

D, other than GNR, who the fuck do you like?  All you do is bash other bands and people's opinions.  Staley's voice was perfect for the sound of AIC.  He kicked ass when he was younger, before the heroin grabbed hold.  You don't have to have world class pipes to be a good rock singer, look at Dylan, Hendrix, Neil Young, etc. 

[Falcon]

Personal opinion is that Layne Staley was better than both....

I'm with you on that, Staley's voice was flat out haunting.  His harmonies with Jerry Cantrell still give me chills.

It's all a matter of opinion, nobody's right or wrong..

Couldn't have said it better. And yes, Mother love bone had enormous potential.

LIke I said I wasnt tryin to diss MLB but when we are talkin about CD and the mystery and mystique and all that

I just aim a little higher than MLB which isnt even Cornells 2nd best band in my opinion.

I just thought you were aiming a little low with your expectations there.

voices are subjective no point in arguing at all.

I have never been a Soundgarden or AIC fan but I just think Layne Staley is completely overrated

the AIC's songs ive heard just werent anything special to me and as previously stated I just find Cornell boring.

[jameslofton29]

D, I see what you're saying. Its your opinion, and you're entitled to it. But as far as expectations go, what are you really expecting? Something so mind expanding that our brains just explode at the first listen of CD? I think this type of thinking is one of the major problems in this CD saga, and might be one of the reasons it still hasn't been released. Axl should have named CD 'Unrealistic Expectations'. if you were Axl, and people were saying CD is The Wall,Physical Graffiti, Dark Side of the Moon, and UYI all in one, but 10 times better than the albums just mentioned, would YOU release it? People need to come back to planet Earth in terms of their hopes for CD. If people would take this advice, we might actually get an album 'soon'.

[gilld1]

I think that if critics put CD on the same par as albums such as:  Soundgarden Badmotorfinger, AIC Dirt, Pearl Jam Vs, Radiohead OKC, NIN Downward Spiral and any of U2's recent stuff then we will have a solid album.  No more, no less. 

[Kujo]

I just aim a little higher than MLB which isnt even Cornells 2nd best band in my opinion.

I have to agree with this, but only because Cornell wasn't even in MLB . Put down the Wonka Bar, D, and step away from the computer.

Its all just a matter of opinion. Relax.

I love Mother Love Bone but if Chinese Democracy sounds like something thats about 17 years old, I will be pissed. I think Cornell has an Amazing voice but most of the stuff that gets released as singles and videos do tend to sound alike. Dig alittle deeper and you will find much better songs than what you hear on the radio, jameslofton already gave some excellent examples.

[PeterCoffin]

Chris Cornell rocks and has a sense of humor. Something not enough "band" people have.

[D]

I want songs a notch above Madagascar and the Blues

I want those songs to for real be the album tracks and I want there to really be big guns

that will satisfy me.

Cornell wasnt in MLB?

then why the hell are we talkin about them for?

[jameslofton29]

MLB was brought up because I said if CD is as good as the MLB album, we'll be pleased. Since you think Cornell was in MLB, you obviously haven't heard the album. You put them down without even hearing it. D, go check it out. You'll thank me for it.

[D]

my not the same ballpark league or sport comment was as an overall frontman

Cornell has pipes, I dont really dig him but he is extremely talented vocally. Now his frontman skills? He comes nowhere close to Axl in my opinion.

Cornell was in Temple of the Dog album, wasnt this a tribute to the singer of mother love bone?

[jameslofton29]

Walapino, Temple of the Dog was a great album. Alot of GNR fans dont like to admit this, but there was several great albums that came from the shitty grunge era. Temple being one of them. I love the songs 'Wooden Jesus' and 'Four Walled World'.

if that's actually your opinion, then you got your head stuck someplace that ain't right.
Chris covers all the areas of singing that Axl does, and more....BUT, Axl has a much cooler voice, more caresmatic(did I write that right?)!

another thing to put into considertation is that Chris was one of Shannon Hoons best friends....maybe that's why Axl liked him!?
