The songs run from their early independent releases through the major-label albums that made them one of the defining bands of the grunge era, tracing how they grew from a scrappy, sludgy outfit into masters of twisted, heavy songcraft.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eOutshined shows off Kim Thayil's brutal, drop-tuned riffing alongside Chris Cornell's huge vocal range. Spoonman lurches along on an off-kilter groove with real spoons clattering in the mix, while Black Hole Sun remains one of the strangest and most beautiful hits of the 1990s, all swirling guitar and surreal melody. Bleed Together, a previously unreleased song from the band's later sessions, adds something fresh for collectors.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe running order follows their story chronologically, so you can hear the sound sharpen and expand album by album.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eFor newcomers, it is a sharp introduction to one of Seattle's most adventurous bands. For longtime fans, it remains a fitting summary of everything they built in their first run together.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Alliance Entertainment","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":57478978109745,"sku":"731454083324","price":17.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/2026\/7313\/files\/Soundgarden-A-Sides_CD.jpg?v=1794396831","url":"https:\/\/vinyl.com\/products\/soundgarden-a-sides-cd","provider":"Vinyl.com","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
