Soundgarden's third album Badmotorfinger is absolutely my favorite. This is there heavy record of there catalog. They were critically acclaimed and even went on tour with arguably the top band at that time Guns n Roses in 1992. They'd also be featured in Lollapalooza that year. They do sound a bit different from the previous release Louder Than Love but, Badmotorfinger was bassist Ben Shepherd first album which might have something to do with it sounding a more edgier and powerful. One of my favorite Soundgarden songs was being worked on during the recording process but, never finished. It was released on a movie soundtrack called "Singles" and they perform and play the song "Birth Ritual" in the film. On Revolver magazine's website they ranked Badmotorfinger at 26th greatest metal record ever. In my opinion this is there definitive album. Hopefully they'll do that reunion tour like promised. Songs to check out "Outshined", "Jesus Christ Pose" and "Rusty Cage".
