Advantages: Respectable Addition To Your CD Collection

Disadvantages: Your partner will steal it for their car

Why is it that everything that Chris Cornell [previous Soundgarden front man] gets involved in, is so superb?

TO START: COCHISE launches the record with a rhythmic percussive pick-roll, evolving into an instrumental build-up, gently rolling you into a fine track that sets the pace for the rest of the record. And the album keeps it?s unwritten-promise to you, remaining consistently good to the finish.

HIGHLIGHT: The slow "waow-waow" [I think I just made that word up] guitar lead on LIKE A STONE is brilliant.

In true Soundgarden tradition, it takes a few listens before you actually realize how good this record really is. What at first seem like un-striking tracks ferment in the dusty little recess of your mind [is that from a poem somewhere?], until at some point you are struck by how excellent these songs really are. This is usually the mark of a true quality album; one you don?t tire of after a week or two.

Like all good albums, various tracks will get inside your brain several times a day, just to remind you what you're missing out on hearing at that moment

I confess that someone bought me this as gift...you know who you are...cheers!

If you are even a little into any of the numerous intra-genres of Rock music in this world, you will like this record. If you don't, then you are musically flawed...

BOTTOM LINE: Quality
