This marks the saddest time in my life as a music fan. The last album of new songs that Soundgarden will ever put out. It was a good ride, but all ended here with Down On The Upside. But, if you gotta go out, go out with an album …

Before this album was released I simply couldn’t believe that the band are going to be able to create such great music as they did on this album. I thought that it was very unlikely that the guys are going to have as much inspiration as they used to …

Some things never go out of style and Elton John is one of them. Elton John quickly soared to number one spots on the charts in the 1970’s and kept making those hits spanning a very long career. I love Elton John’s music but not his attitude so much. …
