Editorial Reviews

Soundgarden's first two EPs combined together on one CD, originally released in 1990. Fronted by Chris Cornell, Soundgarden's blend of Classic Rock, Metal and Grunge helped jumpstart a Rock revolution in the early '90s. Alongside Nirvana and Pearl Jam, Soundgarden remain one of the finest bands to emerge from and transcend the influential Grunge scene. 10 tracks including 'Hunted Down', 'Nothing to Say' and 'Swallow My Pride'. Warner.

    This is a combination of Soundgarden's first two ep's. So first off this album is pure hardcore rock. If you listen to Soundgarden at all, you should check it out. If your one of those casual fans who just like Black Hole Sun and Spoonman, then check out Badmotorfinger or A-Sides, unless you like a more hardcore raw experimental sound. Chris Cornell gives a great performance, and while it's not his best, he really shines on tracks Hunted Down, Tears To Forget, Nothing To Say, and Fopp.

    On their first releases they were obviously heavily influenced by Zeppelin, Sabbath, and 70's rock, and still finding their sound. They didn't really settle into their sound until Louder Than Love. You can definitely hear traces of their sound throughout many tracks, but it wasn't until Louder Than Love that they really had their own sound. While Louder Than Love is a lot like Ultramega OK in it's hard, heavy, raw sound, it's a more defined and solid record and you really begin to hear the Soundgarden sound.

    The first four songs on Screaming Life are worth the purchase alone. They are some of Soundgarden's best early songs. Hand of God and Fopp are also among my favorites. So if you want to hear pure, heavy rock, check this out. It's very hard to find, but I just ordered it off Amazon and it was in my hands in 3 days. So anyway if you are a pretty big Soundgarden fan, you already know about songs like Hunted Down, Nothing To Say, Hand of God, and you already have this or will eventually have it. But if you are new to Soundgarden, I suggest you pick up Badmotorfinger, then Louder Than Love, then SuperUnknown.

    fans of the later, more radio-friendly soundgarden might not like this cd, but if youre into "louder than love" then youll probably like this. it took me a little longer to get into than "badmotorfinger" or "louder than love" because at first listen it sounds like a whole lot of noise, but all it took was a couple more plays and now "hunted down" and "nothing to say" are two of my all-time favorite soundgarden songs. the whole cd is pretty dark-sounding and kind of scary at times, probably due to the murky production, but chris cornells voice is better than usual (other than the song "little joe", which i at least hope was meant as a joke because hes yelping like a little kid for almost the entire song) and if youre into noisy music and kind of subpar seattle production like on nirvana's "bleach" then youll love this. listen to it on headphones for the full effect.

    Then buy this.

    Seriously.

    If you've gone through Superunknown, Badmotorfinger, and Down on the Upside, get this.

    And Ultramega OK.

    Because if you're not a huge fan, you won't get it.

    But if you love this band, you'll love this CD.

    This is (besides Ultramega OK) the best representation of Soundgarden's serious side AND hilarious side.

    The only (KINDA) bad part is, take any of their best songs, downgrade the musical and lyrical creativity, and Cornell's voice, and you've got this CD.

    But that's not bad. At all.

    What you have here is the one-celled amoeba in the evolutionary line of one of the greatest bands in........a VERY long time.

    Get it. Have fun.

    And most importantly.

    ROCK ON.

    Seattle was in the middle of the genesis of the grunge movement by the late '80's when one of its vanguard bands, Soundgarden, released their debut EP, `Screaming Life' in the fall of 1987. All of the elements of the band's future success are here on this and on the quick follow up `Fopp' released in early `88. The familiar banshee wail of Chris Cornell is already evident as the band combined the DIY punk/hardcore esthetic of the decade with traditional heavy metal elements from Sabbath and Zeppelin. "Hunted Down" could be considered among the very first Soundgarden songs and is only disappointing in its brevity though the elements of doom still permeate. "Nothing to Say" and "Hand of God" (based on an old recording of a preacher from the `50's) are two further highlights from the first EP. `Fopp' is much shorter and contains two covers (Mudhoney and the Ohio Players) and in that sense it is less impactful but taken with `Screaming Life', it is part of a strong compilation. A must have for anyone who is into both Soundgarden and the early Seattle scene - `Screaming Life/Fopp' shows how a band that would command great attention during the `alternative' `90's sounding like within the environs of a burgeoning independent scene that would have tremendous international impact within 3 to 4 short years.

    I really love Soundgarden's latest CD but I saw this CD on Amazon and decided to give it a try. It is comprised of a couple of early EP's that were released by SubPop and I really love it. if you're an occasional fan of Soundgarden, maybe this isn't for you but I want all the Soundgarden and Chris Cornell Music I can get my hands on. Great Delivery and Packaging to go along with the great appreciation of a young Soundgarden.

    Needed to replace from a long lost cassette copy. Forgot just how much I enjoyed this disc! If you are an early Soundgarden fan, this should be a must in your collection. Received cd in brand new condition....no scratches, skips or cracked case.

    Ordered for my son who is a Soundgarden/Chris Cornell fan to the core. He really enjoys hearing the early sounds of the band and comparing how CC's voice has changed over the years.

    Not Soundgarden's best work for sure. Fopp is a good song, but it's better by the Ohio Players. Love OP's version, so I thought I'd give this one a try because I really dig Soundgarden. Slightly disappointing. Love Soundgarden's other albums though. You'd be better off to go with Superunknown. Just my opinion.

    5.0 out of 5 stars "Superunknown"
    Reviewed in Germany on September 26, 2012
    Bei dieser Veröffentlichung aus dem Jahr 1990 handelt es sich „lediglich“ um eine Wiederveröffentlichung der beiden Soundgarden-EP`s „Screeming Live“ von 1987 und „Fopp“ von 1988. Es waren ihre ersten und gleichzeitig letzten Veröffentlichungen beim Seattle-Kultlabel „SubPop“, bevor sie zum Black Flag-Label „SST“ wechselten, für das sie ihre erste LP aufnahmen. Stilistisch gelang der Band die Schnittmenge aus Punk-Rotz und Heavy Metal schon sehr gut, wobei auch hier schon ihre Vorliebe für die schweren Gitarrenriffs Black Sabbath`s überdeutlich durchschimmert. Vielleicht hätten auch deswegen diese Songs als nachträgliches Bindeglied zwischen den Alben „Ultramega Ok“ und „Louder Than Love“ bestens funktioniert. Die Unschuld und Verbundenheit der Szene, der Soundgarden damals noch angehörten, drückt sich übrigens unter anderem in dem sehr hörenswerten Green River-Cover „Swallow My Pride“ aus. Einige deren Mitglieder sollten nur kurze Zeit später mit namenhaften Bands wie Mudhony, Mother Love Bone oder Pearl Jam von sich reden machen.

    Reviewed in Italy on January 28, 2011
    Ho ascoltato per la prima volta queste canzoni in un unico disco.Fanno infatti parte di due raccolte diverse. Devo dire che la recensione non può essere che positiva, anche se, essendo un amante del genere rock, sono un ascoltatore di parte. Devo dire che in queste canzoni, soprattutto per quanto riguarda la parte vocale di chris cornell e quella della batteria, si sente abbastanza l'influsso di robert plant e dei led zeppelin stessi. la parte guitar è invece abbastanza personale. Apprezzo comunque molto l'intensità dei pezzi stessi, dato che si evince un'energia che a volte, anzi spesso, non si ritrova più in album successivi, non solo dei soundgarden, ma anche della stragrande maggioranza dei gruppi. Tendo a pensare che questi cambiamenti, e a volte addolcimenti della musica e dei testi dipendano esclusivamente dalla crescita e dalle esperienze di vita (tutti invecchiamo!!!), e spero non siano dovuti al rammollimento degli agi e dei frutti derivanti dalle ingenti vendite. Il mio giudizio resta comunque positivo rispetto ad un genere che ha prodotto dei pezzi riferimento rispetto alla musica rock ed ha segnato un cambiamento non solo nel modo di vestirsi e suonare, ma anche di interfacciarsi rispetto a tanti altri campi, per quelli che come me erano adolescenti nei primi anni NOVANTA. Con la speranza che la musica non rimanga impantanata in così tanto odierno fango televisivo vi saluto cortesemente.
