Our Take

Temple Of The Dog, the seminal self-titled debut album from the supergroup comprised of members of Soundgarden and Pearl Jam, is a deliciously grungy concoction that will have you headbanging in no time. Released in 1991, this album is a nostalgic reminder of the golden age of grunge, when flannel-clad rockers ruled the airwaves.

Lead singer Chris Cornell's hauntingly powerful vocals soar over the gritty guitars and thunderous drums, creating a sound that is both raw and emotionally charged. Tracks like "Hunger Strike" and "Say Hello 2 Heaven" showcase the band's ability to seamlessly blend elements of rock, grunge, and even a hint of psychedelia.

The lyrics on Temple Of The Dog are deeply personal, reflecting the grief and loss that inspired the album's creation. Cornell's poignant songwriting explores themes of love, loss, and redemption, making each track feel like a cathartic release for both the band and the listener.

While Temple Of The Dog may not have achieved the same commercial success as some of its members' other projects, it remains a cult favourite among grunge aficionados and music fans alike. So grab your flannel, crank up the volume, and let Temple Of The Dog take you on a musical journey back to the golden days of Seattle's grunge scene. Trust us, you won't be disappointed.
