Soundgarden

In September 1991, Soundgarden was riding high on the wave of their critically acclaimed album *Badmotorfinger*, released just days earlier in September of that year. This marked a pivotal moment in their career, as the album’s mix of heavy riffs and introspective lyrics solidified their position in the burgeoning grunge scene. At the live recording at the Capitol Theater on September 14, 1991, fans were treated to an electric performance that featured tracks like "Jesus Christ Pose" and "Outshined," both of which would later become staples of their catalog. Interestingly, the band's sound during this period was characterized by a fusion of heavy metal and alternative rock, showcasing Chris Cornell's powerful vocals and Kim Thayil's innovative guitar work. This concert almost serves as a time capsule; looking back, it captures the raw energy and transformative spirit of a band that was on the brink of mainstream breakthrough.
