Superunknown captures Soundgarden at their most fully-realized. Chris Cornell had already proven himself a formidable metal wailer with a band who could back him with serious songwriting chops, but their 1994 opus took every element of their sound a step further. The 70-minute epic is eerily psychedelic and immediately tuneful, but also brash and heavy and brimming with raw rock power. It’s the one with “Black Hole Sun,” “Fall on Black Days” and “Spoonman,” and you need it in your collection.
