For Your Information Chris Cornell dies at 52

[Einstein]

I was saddened and dismayed this morning when I opened facebook, to see a post by Frank Klepacki commenting on the death of Chris Cornell last night. If you don't know who this guy is, then you are likely not very old or just don't much like rock music, because he was only in about half a dozen different bands during the 90s and 2000s (soundgarden, temple of the dog, audioslave just to name a few). He is well known for his amazing voice and talent. The music world has definitely taken a loss today.

It's a day to play Chris Cornell songs today.

Okhe. Here's a few of my favorites, although it was really hard to only choose three....

(I realize that the last one is by AiC, but Chris is in it too, along with several other awesome seattle voices of the time.)

So he was the vocals for Shadow on the Sun? I've always really liked that song, since discovering it used in a World in Conflict trailer.

Correct. He also did the theme for the James Bond - Casino Royale movie

Chris Cornell was an absolute legend. I'm glad that we'll always have the music he created, as that will never die.
