Loudest Love is an EP by the American rock band Soundgarden. It was released in Japan in September 1990 through A&M Records.

Overview

The track listing is based on the "Loud Love" U.K. vinyl single, with the addition of "Hands All Over", "Heretic" and "Come Together". AllMusic staff writer Greg Prato said, "The Loudest Love compilation is quite a find for hardcore fans of Soundgarden, but if you're a newcomer, start off with their 1997 best-of collection, A-Sides , or one of their official albums." ^[2]
