Okay, Universe… now you’re just fucking with me.
My favorite Soundgarden memory is of me and Lady Macbedtime playing Road Rash on the original PlayStation for hours on end, and when we were done, just letting the game sit on the title screen while it looped through a soundtrack containing Outshined, Superunknown, and Rusty Cage.
My favorite Audioslave memory is of hearing Cochise for the first time, and excitedly assuring everyone that rock wasn’t dead in the new millennium. Which I suppose is also one of my worst memories, since I turned out to be completely wrong.
RIP, Chris Cornell
