Description
The first comprehensive biography of iconic singer-songwriter Chris Cornell.
Total F*cking Godhead is the complete story of the complex and enigmatic artist, Chris Cornell. It's the riveting account of a blue collar, high-school dropout emerging from Seattle, Washington, to become one of the greatest singer-songwriters and voices of his generation. With input from people who knew and worked with him - together with Cornell's own words - the book recounts in great detail the rise of his immortal band Soundgarden as they emerged from the 1980s post-punk underground to dominate popular culture in the '90s alongside other Seattle bands like Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, and Nirvana.
Long-time Seattle resident and rock writer Corbin Reiff examines Cornell's dynamic solo career as well as his time in Audioslave. He delves into his hard-fought battle with addiction, as well as the supercharged reunion with the band that made him famous before everything ended tragically.
This is the story of an artist who channeled his own inner turmoil into songs that touched the hearts of millions around the world and turned Chris Cornell into one of music's greatest icons.

As lead singer and songwriter for the Red Hot Chili Peppers, Anthony Kiedis has lived life on the razor's edge. Much has been written about him, but until now we've only had his songs as clues to his experience from the inside. In Scar Tissue, Kiedis proves himself to be as compelling a memoirist as he is a lyricist, giving us a searingly honest account of the life from which his music has evolved.

When Mark Lanegan first arrived in Seattle in the mid-1980s, he was just "an arrogant, self-loathing redneck waster seeking transformation through rock 'n' roll." Little did he know that within less than a decade, he would rise to fame as the frontman of the Screaming Trees, and then fall from grace as a low-level crack dealer and a homeless heroin addict, all the while watching some of his closest friends rocket to the forefront of popular music.

There has never been a band like Pearl Jam. The Seattle quintet has recorded 11 studio albums; sold some 85 million records; played more than a thousand shows, in 50 countries; and had five different albums reach number one. But Pearl Jam's story is about much more than music. Not for You is the first full-length treatment of Pearl Jam's odyssey and importance in the culture, from the '90s to the present.

informative and engaging
I was particularly affected by the death of Chris. This book acted as excellent closure and eye-opening knowledge on the life of Chris Cornell. As I listened I would frequently put on the next album as they were produced in the books timeline, knowing the context of each song lent a special intimacy and insight into what Chris and the guys put into them.
Gone too soon. RIP.

A legend amongst humankind
Soundgarden was my music, I felt a connection to them the first Tim I heard them in my teens. I followed the band and everything Chris had done in his life. They were my go to for everything. My heart faded the day he died. This was a nice walk down memory lane for me. Great job on this story and tribute to the Total F**king Godhead.

Straightforward Biography
Rock Music Journalist Corbin Reiff presents a solid chronological review of Chris Cornell's performing career. The book is very well-researched, and Reiff's fanboy opinion of the man's artistry is seconded generously by excerpts of interviews (with bandmates, music industry stalwarts, friends, etc).
The book is exceedingly well-written and meticulously accurate.. but lacks in the psychology/struggles aspects of Cornell's personality. There is a ton of information but not enough insight in this book (simply knowing that Chris went into rehab for two months and exited sober in 2004 doesn't really tell me who the guy was, does it?)
As to production quality: Michael Butler Murray delivers an imperfect but praiseworthy reading performance. His diction, timbre, cadence, and tone are beyond reproach - and backed up by exemplary technical support from Tantor Audio engineers - but his voice-acting repertoire includes a couple of relatively weak accents.
Altogether, 'Total F*cking Godhead' merits 7.5 stars out of 10. It was a fine listen documenting the unsurpassed talent and career of a rock & roll icon as a 'Plus' selection - possibly even worth a Credit for those seeking an "industry retrospective". There are doubtless better (more perceptive) options, however.
[Incidentally: How cool was this guy? Playing a Canadian concert sponsored by Molson and making sure he recommends Labatt's beer to the crowd]
