Episode notes

On this episode of 'My Classic Album', Mike takes a journey into the superunknown looking back at Soundgarden's most celebrated album with Canadian singer songwriter VILIVANT.

Together Mike and VILIVANT explore how 'Superunknown' launched Soundgarden to mainstream notoriety as the grunge movement hit its apex while being unafraid to wear other genres and creativity firmly on their sleeves.

Who was Artis the Spoonman; the street performer who inspired and also performed on the Grammy winning 'Spoonman'?

Which song on the album came to singer Chris Cornell as he drove home from the studio?

How did a robin inspire the lyrics to 'Like Suicide'?

PLUS: An opportunity to listen to 'Stabilized', a track from VILIVANT's 2020 EP 'Never Again'.

Another in depth conversation to enjoy from 'My Classic Album'.
