Ten years after crawling from the muck and mire of the Seattle grunge scene, Soundgarden`s farewell compilation hits all the high points of an impressive career. Nirvana may have taken grunge public, but Soundgarden got there first. Starting with the grinding of SCREAMING LIFE`s "Nothing To Say," A-SIDES demonstrates the band`s evolution from muscular musical brutes to a unit whose might was tailored by an innovative use of hooks and melodicism.
This collection finds them journeying all over the musical map, utilizing a more percussive assault ("Spoonman"), delving into the depths of psychedelia ("Black Hole Sun"), and even bringing their trademark aggressive style to the decidedly un-rock mandolin on "Ty Cobb," a song the Ramones might have written had they grown up in Kentucky instead of Queens. A-SIDES stands to prove that throughout their career, Soundgarden remained fervently ambitious in their musical endeavours.
