== Core line-up: ==
Line 36 ⟶ 38:
* ''Superunknown'' (1994), the band's breakthrough and biggest success, going straight to #1 on the charts. Contains their biggest hits and [[Signature Song|Signature Songs]] "Black Hole Sun" and "Spoonman". Cornell didn't like working with producer Michael Beinhorn because of his obsession with capturing the perfect sounds (commenting that by the time they had recorded a song they'd already rehearsed it to death), but admitted the sound created by him and engineer Brendan O'Brien played a part in the album's success.
* ''Songs From the Superunknown'' EP (1995)
* ''Down on the Upside'' (1996), their last album before their disbandment. This time Soundgarden opted to self-produce to avoid the tediously slow frustration of ''Superunknown''. It didn't have anywhere near the same impact as their predecessor but was reasonably well-received.
* ''[[Greatest Hits Album|A-sides]]'' (1997), a greatest hits album rushed out after the band disbanded.
* ''Telephantasm'' (2010), another greatest hits album, including some unreleased songs. The two-disc version features all of their videos.
* ''Live on I-5'' (2011), a collection of live tracks from a 1996 tour, and a few covers.
* ''King Animal'' (2012)
* ''Echo of Miles: Scattered Tracks Across the Path'' (2014), a compilation featuring rarities, live tracks and unreleased material.
