Now a thousand days have gone again like the sun and moon at war
from A Thousand Days Before lyrics by Soundgarden
“A Thousand Days Before” stands out with its mystic Indian Raga feel and sitar-esque background pads. Cornell’s voice seems less dated here, and his earthy imagery suits the eastern bounce, with a climactic trumpet as the cherry on top. Equally attractive to jam-band fans as it is SG followers.
