Soundgarden Albums in Order:<\/strong> Having sold more than 14 million records in the United States, and an estimated 30 million worldwide, Soundgarden<\/strong> carved out a place for heavy metal in alternative rock. An American rock band, Soundgarden discography consists of six studio albums, two live albums, six compilation albums, eight extended plays, 24 singles and 23 music videos.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the defining acts of the \u201990s alt-rock boom, the Seattle quartet Soundgarden<\/strong> blended the Zeppelin-esque grandeur of Chris Cornell\u2019s soaring vocals and Kim Thayil\u2019s guitar pyrotechnics with sludge-coated rhythms to great success. Formed in 1984, the band first appeared on the 1986 compilation Deep Six, a snapshot of its home city\u2019s then-nascent rock scene. The local label Sub Pop released their bleakly paranoid debut single, \u201cHunted Down\u201d; that was followed by two EPs, Screaming Life and Fopp. Soundgarden\u2019s first full-length, Ultramega OK, came out in 1988 on the famed indie-rock label SST, and the video for lead single \u201cFlower\u201d garnered attention from MTV\u2019s late-night rock shows. The band\u2019s major-label debut, Louder Than Love, was released a year later, highlighted by the cavernous environmental plea \u201cHands All Over\u201d and the piercing \u201cLoud Love\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

Bassist Hiro Yamamoto was replaced by Ben Shepherd for the recording of Soundgarden\u2019s third full-length, 1991\u2019s Badmotorfinger, which proved an alt-rock-mainstream breakthrough, with the bludgeoning \u201cJesus Christ Pose\u201d and the chugging \u201cOutshined\u201d serving as standard-bearers for grunge. Superunknown, released in 1994, further propelled Soundgarden into the mainstream on the strength of the swaggering \u201cSpoonman\u201d and the psychedelia-tinged \u201cBlack Hole Sun\u201d, and 1996\u2019s Down on the Upside expanded the band\u2019s sonic palette.<\/span><\/p>\n

Soundgarden went on hiatus in 1997, with Cornell starting Audioslave and Matt Cameron joining Pearl Jam, and they returned in 2010, releasing their final album, King Animal, in 2012. The band toured until Cornell\u2019s death in 2017 and played their final show, a tribute to Cornell with an all-star cast of vocalists, in 2019.
