Soundgarden was a seminal seattlerock band who helped to define the sound that came to be called grunge. Despite starting years earlier, and having a sound that sooner resembled Black Sabbath or Deep Purple than their contemporaries, they are usually considered one of the 'big four' of the '90s Seattle grunge bands, along with Nirvana, Alice in Chains, and Pearl Jam. The band was formed in 1984 by Chris Cornell(vocals, and originally on drums) and (bass), to be joined later by Kim Thayil(guitar) and Matt Cameron(drums). Thayil joined the band after moving to Seattle from illinoiswith Yamamoto and Bruce Pavitt, who would later start sub pop records. Yamamoto was replaced by Ben Shepherdon bass after the release of 1989's Louder Than Love.

Jesus Christ Pose Lyrics
Soundgarden
And you stare at me
In your jesus christ pose
Arms held out
Like youve been carrying a load
And you swear to me
You dont want to be my slave
But youre staring at me
Like I need to be saved
In your jesus christ pose
Arms held out
In your jesus christ pose
Thorns and shroud
Like its the coming of the lord
And I swear to you
That I would never feed you pain
But youre staring at me
Like Im driving the nails
In your jesus christ pose
And you stare at me
In your jesus christ pose
Arms held out like its
The coming of the lord
And would it pay you more to walk on water
Than to wear a crown of thorns
It wouldnt pain me more to bury you rich
Than to bury you poor
In your jesus christ pose
