Speak No Evil
Hailing from Los Angeles, Speak No Evil's debut was quite plainly
influenced by
Badmotorfinger-era
Soundgarden,
both musically and vocally, as Curtis Skelton's soulful vocals are
quite similar to Chris Cornell's.
By the time of the followup,
Welcome To The Downside, the
Soundgarden
similarities were toned down just a bit, with the band being
a bit harder and leaner, drawing some comparisons to, perhaps,
Sevendust.
Both albums are quite good in their own right, but due to whatever
reasons
(label mismanagement, perhaps), they didn't get a lot of exposure.
For several years afterward the band laid low, and then there were
reports of a modified lineup possibly working on new material in
a different direction, but apparently said material never saw the light
of day, at least not as Speak No Evil.
