Full review
Seattle's Soundgarden were a tremendous band. A&M went and did the decent thing and released a compilation of Chris Cornell and co's single releases, hot on the news that the band were no more.

The track listing is suitably comprehensive, and it's good to note that there are even a couple of tracks taken from their original Sub Pop days, namely Flower and Ty Cobb, nestling alongside the biggest singles of their career.

Soundgarden's progression as a band can clearly be heard as the later, more polished tracks such as the MTV favourite Black Hole Sun and Blow Up The Outside World highlight how tight they became as a unit and how razor sharp Kim Thayill's riffs became.

Coming shortly after their demise, A-Sides is a fitting testimony to a monumental band (undoubtedly the original mainstays of grunge), who never quite got the recognition they deserved. Flawless.
