Personally I thought Black Hole Sun was a terrible video, and I didn't like the production on that song either. Making the eyes bigger in the video felt like a stupid trick that a child would add because it looked new and cool. And the alternating "Black Hole Sun, Black Hole Sun" on the left and right channels were the same way to me. That said, I was a huge Soundgarden fan, and that album was a disappointment for me. The only songs I still listen to from that album are 'Like Suicide' which is brilliant, and "The Day I Tried to Live".

But you remember it, right? It was such a twisted take on what a music video should be - it didn't make you feel good, it made you feel SOMETHING. That's the Soundgarden modus operandi. As Kim said, if they wanted to be popular they'd have written more songs in 4/4. The whole premise of Temple of The Dog as some kind of unique gem is fucking low-class keyfab. The only way the article makes sense is if you pour a bottle of cough syrup into a 12 oz glass of Listerine and smoke some PCP as a chaser. Basically I'm saying nothing about this article rings true except for tying in "How I Met Your Mother" as a desperate flailing for relevance.
