re: Layne Staley vs. Chris Cornell vs, Eddie Vedder.

It's hard to knock an all time great rock voice like Cornell's, but over time his style got kind of monotonous and predictable to me. And I was a HUGE early soundgarden guy. It's like you knew exactly when he was gonna flex his range in any given song, almost formulaic. which isn't a major knock I guess

Staley had a sneaky great voice. Like id mistakenly think sometimes he was just a unique voice that fit their sound perfectly. Then id hear a certain song and remember that dude was fricking velvet smooth and could sing anything

Perry Farrell is a little like that for me too. sometimes I peg him as more just a distinct sound that fit what Jane's did really well. then id hear that one song and remember holy shite this dude will melt your face off
