Waltzin' Through Rusty Cages: The Melancholic Journey of Elliott Smith and Chris Cornell by David L O'Nan
Elliott Smith was a master of hushed, whisper-like singing, wasn't he? The subtlety with which he could convey pain was unmatched. However, Elliott's life mirrored the melancholy of his songs. He battled depression, alcohol & drug abuse while simultaneously creating soulful music. His tragic and untimely death shockingly mirrored the dark underbelly of his musical narratives. Chris Cornell was contrasting of Smith's soft murmurs, he was renowned for his loud, rousing voice. Could there be any other frontman who could lead powerful bands like Soundgarden and Audioslave like he did? Cornell's voice vibrated like a thunderstorm, echoing his own internal tumult. Sadly, just like Smith, Cornell wrestled with emotions. His soulful roar was swiftly silenced too soon, a tragic echo of an extraordinary life. If you're anything like me who holds a special place for music in their hearts, you'd probably appreciate the immersive world that Elliott Smith and Chris Cornell created for their listeners.
