In your Jesus Christ POLL: BADMOTORFINGER

Mind Riot isn't the greatest song on this necessarily but it's the one I spend the most time thinking about when I'm not listening to the album

I owned it on cassette at first, so I always think of “Rusty Cage” thru “Jesus Christ Pose” as basically one long song.

― thing that i used to think was cool but now i just don't have time for (stevie),

That build up! It's got a totally mental tuning as well, every string is 'e'.

I really don't think there's a bad song on this.

Mind Riot has one of the nicest melodic riffs on the entire album.

Holy Water is also sinister af

I have a distinct memory of hearing Outshined for the first time on my grandmother’s clock radio and feeling like “Whoa, this is so badass, but also nerdy at the same time! Someone made metal just for me!”

tbc I was like 11 years old

You know an album kicks ass when every single track gets at least two votes.

There’s a picture in there of them at the Lollapalooza show I saw in Chicago. My friends and I had gotten way into the Ohio Players and somehow discovered that Soundgarden had covered “Fopp” which of course we never actually heard because it was a small town in 1992.

Anyway we painted FOPP on a bedsheet and snuck it in and unfurled it in the middle of their set and Chris Cornell started laughing and sang a line from it and we were super stoked.

Later RHCP actually covered it and we thought perhaps we had inspired them to learn it backstage on a whim but it turns out they played it pretty frequently.

Heh, someone posted "Drawing Flies" to a xenharmonic/microtonal FB group I read.
