Euphoria Morning strikes solid chord
By Bryan Anderson Kansan music critic
Does anyone remember what music was like? Before boy bands Latin-pop, and rap/metal hybrids?
The time was the early '90s. The music was grunge. And the place was Seattle — the mecca of grunge.
The place where, as Beavis said, the streets were paved with CDs.
Not much is left from that time. Pearl Jam is still around but making records that seem to matter less and less. Remnants of Nirvana, such as the Foo Fighters and to a lesser extent Hole, are around but lack the force of the original. And Soundgarden just plain broke up.
Cornell has broken completely with his Soundgarden grunge/metal past and recorded a diverse rock album.
Chris Cornell, the former lead singer of Soundgarden, had one of the best rock voices of the '90s and now has released his debut solo record. Euphoria Morning.
This record was an ambitious
undertaking for several reasons.
First, Cornell has to worry about competing with the Soundgarden sound. Stray too far and one alienates the fans; stick too close to the sound and one is accused of being unoriginal. Second, Cornell has recorded an album of songs that stretches the spectrum of rock, from slow ballads to up-tempo retro-rock. And he succeeds — for the most part.
The first single, "Can't Change Me," would be a perfect fit in rotation on a local modern rock station. It is the first song on the record, and it serves as a primer for the rest of the album, suggesting that what one is about to hear is not another Soundgarden endeavor.
Other highlights include the midtempo "Moonchild," a song with an easy-going melodic verse and a dense, minor chorus. "Disappearing One" is a solid blue-tinged ballad. And on "Steel Rain," Cornell displays his impressive vocals, ranging from soft to loud, and low to high.
CD facts
Grade: B-
Artist: Chris Cornell
Album: Euphoria Morning
Some of the weaker spots include the electronically influenced "Flutter Girl," which does not seem to fit. And on on "Wave Goodbye," Cornell tries for a retro/funk-rock sound. Right now the only person who can get away with that sound is Lenny Kravitz. The rest of the album is decent, with no tracks standing out as exceptional.
Cornell has successfully broken away from the Soundgarden legacy on his solo debut.
Euphoria Morning is a solid record, but is a little disappointing for one of the most talented vocalists in rock music today. With the pressure of the debut album out of the way, hopefully Cornell's sophomore effort will meet his potential.
