"Hunted Down" was the first song on Soundgarden's first EP, Screaming Life. It was also the first single by the band with the B-side being "Nothing to Say". "Nothing to Say" later appeared on the compilation A-Sides. The blue vinyl was a limited edition with only 500 copies made and has become a Soundgarden collector's item. The song is a representation of the "grunge" sound of the late 80's.

"That song wasn't supposed to be as heavy sounding as it turned out. We just started jamming on the riff and it took on the 'noise rock' dimensions, kind of a rhythmic thing. And that solo is a noise solo. It's very dissonant. That song was also the first song on the Sub Pop "hold" music tape. You would call them up, and when they put you on hold you heard 'Hunted Down.'" --Kim Thayil
