| | [No title] |
 | | Euphoria Morning is a return to the swelling movement of a song, the subtle build-up using "uncommon" instruments and sounds to achieve a diverse, worldly, instinctively trustworthy sound. |  | | Euphoria Morning is one of the best-written art pop albums this decade, and a testament to a songwriter's maturity and constant quality output in different genres, even if half the people listening don't know their elbow from their asshole. |  | | Euphoria Morning is the ultimate test, with which the world will be divided into two categories: those who are merely one-dimensional music listeners, and those who truly understand the essence of note/melody interaction. |

 | | Euphoria Morning is a singer/songwriter album, one in which the lyrics and the voice are rich and well worthy of a good listen. |  | | But throughout Euphoria Morning, subtle traces of the Beatles, Jeff Buckley and John Lennon can be heard in the music. |  | | The only similarity between Soundgarden and Euphoria Morning is the eclectic songwriting. |

| | chris cornell: euphoria morning Oct 1, 1999 |
 | | The only obvious similarity between Euphoria Morning and Soundgarden's albums is in the lyrics. |  | | Euphoria Morning features greater harmonic and melodic complexity amid fewer vocal roars, more subdued percussion, and less emphasis on rhythm. |  | | The singer's newfound flexibility keeps Euphoria Morning fresh throughout, a feat never fully accomplished on any Soundgarden album. |

| | This 'Morning' not that sweet |
 | | Also among the album's high points is "Sweet Euphoria," a stripped-down acoustic song recorded by Cornell at home. |  | | For a solo album, Euphoria Morning sees Cornell relying heavily on co-producers Alain Johannes and Natasha Shneider, both of whom share songwriting credits with Cornell and play on almost every song. |  | | Euphoria Morning, Cornell's solo debut, marks the former Soundgarden frontman's first step toward independence following a decade of building and supporting the fabled Seattle scene. |

 | | All in all, Euphoria Morning is a record that will enrich your music collection; you just have to be in the mindset to listen to it. |  | | Cornell wanted to take Euphoria Morning and push the music into a more experimental effort that was influenced by his idols by creating a mixture of songs that are well balanced and diverse. |  | | Much of the material on the record is an acoustic guitar layered over painted musical soundscapes. |

 | | His 1999 solo album Euphoria Morning is his forgotten masterpiece - a beautiful album of adventurous, experimental and often introspective songs written and recorded with the help of Natasha Schneider and Alain Johannes of Californian band Eleven. |  | | As Chris Cornell wrote most of the songs for Soundgarden it was obvious that his solo album would be a good one. |  | | Soundgarden split amicably (Soundgarden's drummer, Matt Cameron, appears on one track of Euphoria Morning) when they felt they were on top. |

| | Daily Vault - March 21, 2000 |
 | | Euphoria Morning is a good CD, but I get the feeling that Cornell hasn't quite hit his stride as a solo performer, so let's hope for continued growth on subsequent efforts. |  | | But then there's "Disappearing One" which sounds like watered down Soundgarden, lacking the sonic power of his old band, and "Steel Rain" which has the sonic push but is unfocused and rambling. |  | | Overall, Euphoria Morning should please Cornell's more broad minded fans, disappoint those wanting another Soundgarden CD, and possibly pick up a few new fans in the process. |

 | | Working with long-time friends, Alain Johannes and Natasha Shneider of the band Eleven (who co-produced the CD and co-wrote several tracks), Cornell used a gentler, more acoustic setting to explore a variety of styles. |  | | The CD does not represent an attempt to pursue musical avenues that had been closed to him within Soundgarden; it doesn't make the statement that he felt "artistically stifled" within the confines of Soundgarden's heavier sound. |  | | Euphoria is diverse enough to give Cornell many choices of future musical directions. |

| | Chris Cornell--Euphoria Morning |
 | | Whatever the reason, listening to Euphoria Morning is a bit like that trip you took to the beach when you were 16; you know you had a good time while you were there, but the details of what you actually did there are kind of fuzzy. |  | | Fortunately, the band he's surrounded himself with (and will be touring with) is up to this musical chameleon act. |  | | As a showcase of Cornell's vocal talents, Euphoria Morning is an impressive work. |

| | Chris Cornell Euphoria Morning |
 | | On the track entitled "Sweet Euphoria," Chris's lone guitar strummings are accompanied by surreal lyrics almost reminiscent of the Beatles. |  | | And it's no wonder that Euphoria Morning calls the Beatles to mind on many of the tracks. |  | | Surely, Chris Cornell's Euphoria Morning will win over a new audience with its warmer, more personal sound, while maintaining loyal listeners from his Soundgarden fan base with Chris's unforgettable voice. |

| | Joseph McCombs -- RadioSpy.com Review: Chris Cornell, Euphoria Morning |
 | | Cornell's lyrics on Euphoria Morning are frequently poetic, as in the striking "Pillow of Your Bones"; his favorite theme seems to be relationships -- not so much as lovers, but as blind and limping veterans lost in some vast and deep darkness. |  | | The topic matter is a bit limiting when practiced exclusively, and so detracts a bit from this record, but the sincerity and the inventive prose do allow him to transcend this limitation on several tracks. |  | | So he just went out and recorded an album -- Euphoria Morning -- that simply sounds good and agenda-free. |

| | Nude as the News: Chris Cornell: Euphoria Morning |
 | | The solo acoustic "Sweet Euphoria" recalls "Seasons," Cornell's excellent contribution to the soundtrack for the film "Singles," and "Times Of Trouble," a track penned for the 1991 Seattle all-star album Temple Of The Dog. |  | | But Cornell's willingness to tone down some of his old band's classic rock theatrics is the most striking aspect of Euphoria Morning, touching on the songcraft of Jeff Buckley and even the experimental leanings of Radiohead through its 12 tracks. |  | | Nevertheless, the songs are packed with slick production values and vintage Cornell-isms, picking up most audibly where Soundgarden left off on its final album, 1996's Down On The Upside. |

 | | They recorded the entire album digitally (no tape machine required), yet offset the sharp precision of technology with the warm, imperfect sounds of vintage '60s guitars, amps and other equipment. |  | | The three, who had worked together on a song for the Great Expectations soundtrack, made Euphoria Morning in Johannes's LA-based, home studio. |  | | Using Soundgarden's sonic diversity as a jumping off point, the singer/songwriter explores more surreal musical textures, esoteric studio techniques, emotional lyricism and varied singing styles. |

| | Euphoria Morning |
 | | Few tunes on Euphoria Morning match the easily digestible radio fare of today, making it a difficult album to listen to. |  | | No songs have been released as singles since the short-lived success of “Can’t Change Me,” the reason I bought the album in the first place (though “Wave Goodbye,” his tribute to his friend, the late musical genius Jeff Buckley, should have been given a standing chance). |  | | He’s a happier man doing what he’s doing now and shows no sign of retracing his steps. |

| | Tower Records - Euphoria Morning - Chris Cornell |
 | | The true highlights of EUPHORIA MORNING come when Cornell pushes himself, whether on the sonically rich "Disappearing One" or "Wave Goodbye," a sinewy funk number that doubles as a tribute to the late Jeff Buckley. |  | | Mojo (10/99, p.104) - "...Musically downbeat, lyrically full of distance and loneliness, its intricate and often understated songs have a black undercurrent....Bedsit-metal cuts like 'Sweet Euphoria', 'Steel Rain' and 'Flutter Girl' are among my favorites..." |  | | Alternative Press (10/99, p.77) - 3 out of 5 - "...intelligent, introspective music that draws equally from the psychedelic experimentation of the late Beatles and the operatic histronics of Queen, as well as from more contemporary influences as Jeff Buckley and Radiohead..." |

 | | The soaring "Follow My Way" is epic in scope, and, in fact, Euphoria Morning is aptly titled; the album is a cohesive mood-invoking musical meditation, especially tracks such as "When I'm Down", which has a near-gospel feel thanks to backing vocals and a spare, uplifting vibe. |  | | These stellar musicians make Cornell's latest album crisper, more musical, and less rocky than what one came to expect from Soundgarden. |  | | Fans of Cornell's mellower work with the supergroup Temple of the Dog will enjoy this ardent and mellifluous 12-song collection from one of rock's most recognizable voices. |

 | | The songs are more experimental, which can be attributed to Cornell's admiration for the Beatles and the experimental nature of their music. |  | | The song was as far from "Soundgarden" as you could get: no lengthy guitar solos and riffs, just simple strumming on a guitar. |  | | Five years later and two years after Soundgarden disbanded, Cornell has made good on his word with Euphoria Morning. |

 | | Euphoria Morning is a startling and beautiful solo effort, one worthy of that generation. |  | | Songs like "Preaching the End of the World" and "Sweet Euphoria" let the power of both Cornell's voice and his acoustic guitar touch your nerves as well as any track from Nirvana's MTV Unplugged in New York. |  | | Cornell also puts the synthesizer and keyboard tendencies of Shneider and Johannes to almost perfect use. |

| | Chris Cornell-'Euphoria Morning' |
 | | I get the feeling that future listens of Euphoria Morning will achieve even better listening successes than the first couple of times through, in which I've already felt I've probably heard one of the best pop albums of the year; maybe one of the best in quite a few years. |  | | Nothing here approaches the brilliant "Seasons" (a song Chris wrote and sang for the 'Singles' soundtrack) for sheer word power, but the lyrics certainly aren't weak, and lets face it, Chris could make the theme from "Cheers" sound like it really really means something through delivery and emotional content. |  | | So, buy it, or copy it off of a friend, or at least tape "Can't Change Me" off of the radio. |
