I don't agree, but let's just say they were. You can still put this unreleased track up against most of what passes for modern alt/hard rock on the radio today, and its way more interesting and has another dimension of creativity to it. I mean surely soundgarden is a better mainstream rock act than Nickelback and all their clones. You listen to this song and its got something distinct going on, it catches your ear in a completely different way.

Hard rock has generally been run into the ground and turned into a joke since bands like Soundgarden went away.
