Episode 77 | Author Corbin Reiff ["Total F*cking Godhead: The Biography of Chris Cornell"]

Author Corbin Reiff is on the podcast to talk about his new book "Total F*cking Godhead: The Biography of Chris Cornell".

With input from those who knew and worked with him—together with his own words— the book recounts the rise of Cornell and his immortal band Soundgarden as they emerged from the 1980s post-punk underground to dominate popular culture in the ’90s alongside Pearl Jam, Alice In Chains, and Nirvana.

Reiff also examines Cornell’s dynamic solo career as well as his time in Audioslave. He delves into his hard-fought battle with addiction, and the supercharged reunion with the band that made him famous before everything came to a shocking end.

Reiff is also the author of "Lighters in The Sky: The All-Time Greatest Concerts 1960-2016". His writing has appeared in Rolling Stone, Billboard, Pitchfork, Complex, SPIN, Uproxx, The Washington Post, The Seattle Weekly and The Seattle Times. He lives in Seattle with his wife, Jenna.
