Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger: Wikipedia Album Entry
Badmotorfinger is the third album by the American grunge band Soundgarden. It was released on October 8, 1991 through A&M Records. After touring in support of its previous album, Louder Than Love, released in 1989, the band began the recording sessions for its next album with new bassist Ben Shepherd. The music on the album maintained the band's heavy rock sound while featuring an increased focus on songwriting when compared with the band's previous releases.
The focus on the Seattle grunge scene helped bring attention to Badmotorfinger. The singles "Outshined" and "Rusty Cage" were able to find an audience at alternative radio and MTV. Badmotorfinger became the band's highest charting album at the time on the Billboard 200. The band supported the album with tours of North America and Europe, including opening for Guns N' Roses on that band's Use Your Illusion Tour. In 1992, Badmotorfinger was nominated for the Grammy Award for Best Metal Performance. The album has been certified two times Platinum in the United States.

Soundgarden - Badmotorfinger Lyrics
Soundgarden - Rusty Cage Lyrics
You wired me awake
And hit me with a hand of broken nails
You tied my lead and pulled my chain
To watch my blood begin to boil
Soundgarden - Holy Water Lyrics
Holy water on the brain and Iâm losing sleep
Holy Bible on the night stand next to me
As Iâm raped by another monkey circus freak
Trying to take my indigence away from me, from me
Soundgarden - Drawing Flies Lyrics
Flies
Flies
Sitting here like uninvited company
Soundgarden - Mind Riot Lyrics
I was slipping through the cracks of stolen jewel
I was tightrope walking in two ton shoes
And now somebody's talking of third world war
(I've been caught in a mind riot)
Soundgarden - Room A Thousand Years Wide Lyrics
Listen, hear, he is inside
One who lives while others lie
I close my eyes and walk a thousand years
A thousand years that aren't mine
Soundgarden - Searching With My Good Eye Closed Lyrics
Painted blue across my eyes
And tie the linen on
And I'm on my way, on my way
Looking for the paradigm
Soundgarden - Somewhere Lyrics
I wish to wish I dream to dream
I try to try and I live to live
And I die to die and I cry to cry
But I know why
Soundgarden - Face Pollution Lyrics
An' I can count it on my fingers
I have all my reasons not to feel
I'm numb as rigor mortis
Scared by monkey faces drowned in shark fins
Soundgarden - Jesus Christ Pose Lyrics
And you stare at me
In the Jesus Christ pose
Arms held out
Like you've been carryin' a load
Soundgarden - Slaves & Bulldozers Lyrics
Every word I said is what I mean
Every word I said is what I mean
Everything I gave is what I need
Virgin eyes and dirty looks
Soundgarden - Outshined Lyrics
I got up feeling so down
I got off being sold out
I've kept the movie rolling
But the story's getting old now
Soundgarden - New Damage Lyrics
A new damage comes
It's a faceless poison
A new world order
It's new damage done
