We just released merchandise! Check out the full line-up here: thecharismaticmerch.com/

Im surprised you haven't done Say Hello 2 Heaven yet,this really shows off Chris' vocal abilities.

Chris Cornell is a literal genius. I miss his contribution to music so much. I wish Elizabeth could have interviewed him after this premier...

Chris Cornell's voice/ yell still to this day sends shivers down my spin.

Can't even listen to Chris without crying anymore😭😭😭 definitely one of the most unique voices to ever grace our ears. Fly high brother❤️😭

Shoutout to Matt Cameron, their drummer - an amazing musician in his own right. What a percussiongasm.

I would love to see a reaction/breakdown of "Outshined" by these guys. Such a wild vocal performance. He's firing on all cylinders from beginning to end.

Soundgarden are known for their interesting time signatures, super underrated band.

Ben Shepherd (their bassist) did the backing vocals on Spoonman. March of the Pigs is another example of a popular song making use and mixing of uncommon time signatures.

Chris Cornell has been the hardest loss in the rock/metal world since Ronnie James Dio...Took both of those real hard.

I got to meet Artis in the mid 90's at Red Rocks in Colorado. He was sitting in the crowd with us while the stage is being set. We just though he was some cool friendly dude, but all of a sudden he said he had to go. Well, he went on stage and Spoonman was the first song they played...super cool. To the day one of the best concerts I've seen.

Chris was originally the drummer and they needed a vocalist. Watch Rick Beato's interview with Matt Cameron and Kim Thayill. Fascinating story.

As a kid I always thought Spoon Man was a rhythm based superhero, here to save the day with his amazing spoon skills.

Fun fact about the song: "The title of the song is credited to bassist Jeff Ament of Pearl Jam.[24] While on the set of the movie Singles, Ament produced a list of song titles for the fictional band featured in the movie.[23] Cornell took it as a challenge to write songs for the film using those titles, and "Spoonman" was one of them."

"Save me" reminds me of how in the darkest moments when something outside of my world, be it an unexpected distraction, or a street performer, takes me out of my own head for a short time and gives me hope for life, inspires me with something beautiful. In that moment I forgot all about the dark thoughts and it drowns out the whispered voices in the back of my head telling me it's time to say goodbye.

I love how into this era of music you're getting. These are the musicians and songs that shaped my youth and music tastes.

The real song that shows off Chris’s writing ability, vocal control and ability to attach himself emotionally to your soul for the rest of your life, the song that is haunting and yet healing. Like Suicide is by far my favorite song by Chris in his earlier music with soundgarden. Now if you want an entire album that will musically take you for a ride, the album euphoria morning is one of my favorite albums of all time. It was the first time I realized how complex of an artist he was. He was more than a voice, he was the music too.

If you like 7/4 time, you might love "The day I tried to live". It's also a good example of what Chris could do with his voice. I love it, but can't get it out of my head for a week after listening to it. And the song sounds too desperate to have lingering in my head. BTW: I heard that Soundgarden didn't try to write unusual 7/4 times music. They claim it just happened. They were just making music they liked the sound of.

Have you heard Say Hello To Heaven? His range was very impressive.

I got to see Spoonman several times on the streets of Seattle. He was incredible!
