| | KIM: Everyone kept yelling, “Kim, did you hear that?” It was like, “The fuckin’ Melvins are slow as hell!” I was blown away-the Melvins went from being the fastest band in town to the slowest band in town. | | | KIM: Your first recorded stuff appeared in 1985 on Deep Six, [a seminal Seattle sound compilation on C/Z records], which was the first recorded documentation of the Seattle scene. | | | KIM: Nirvana and Soundgarden are probably the two biggest bands directly influence by you. |

| | Thayil's first band, Zippy and His Vast Army of Pinheads, did both original songs (written by Thayil and inspired by his punk music tastes) and cover tunes (mostly the Sex Pistols and the Ramones). | | | Thayil grew up listening to the MC5, the Dolls, the Stooges, and the Velvet Underground, but it all began with Kiss. | | | Since then, Thayil has lent his talents to other projects: he plays guitar for Pigeonhed; he appears on the Presidents' of the United States of America self-titled album; and he teamed up with big names like Johnny Cash and Krist Novoselic to record "Time of the Preacher" for the Twisted Willie non-tribute to Willie Nelson. |

| | Kim: Not only that, it thwarts the ability of young people in bands, young songwriters and musicians to be able to do their craft. | | | I was playing with Kim and Gina, and I said, "I'll talk to them and we'll put a band together and we'll play three, four, five songs and it'll be a lot of fun." Sure enough, Kim and Gina were into it, and then sure enough, a show was put together, and we did it. | | | Memory might also be jogged by the recent release of a CD from the event, a live performance by a one-time supergroup: Jello Biafra, Nirvana's Krist Novaselic, Soundgarden's Kim Thayil, and Gina Mainwal from Sweet 75. |

| | Kim Thayil's lead playing is great throughout, and Chris Cornell's delivery and lyrics perfectly match the downtrodden atmosphere of the song. | | | All of this is capped of by a truly majestic instrumental section and an extended guitar solo by Kim Thayil. | | | Bassist Ben Shepherd and drummer Matt Cameron are both rock solid and rhythmically interesting, and Kim Thayil's noisy guitar work harkens back to the band's Sub Pop days and really takes the track to another level. |

| | Not only were they one of the first groups to record for the legendary Seattle indie Sub Pop, but they were the first grunge band to sign to a major label. | | | But the group's key sonic signatures -- the gutsy wail of vocalist Chris Cornell and the winding riffs of guitarist Kim Thayil -- were what brought them out of the underground. | | | Yamamoto played in several cover bands before forming a band in 1984 with his roommate Chris Cornell (vocals), a Seattle native who had previously played drums in several bands. |
