Nah. It's got plenty of legit great tracks but it's also got decent-to-middling songs that don't quite pop like they really should and also straight up bland fucking shite (both generally when they ratchet up the classic rock influence that only works some of the time). I don't know why radio stations insist on shoving "Black Hole Sun" and "The Day I Tried to Live" down my throat as good songs but they do and they can eat a dick. But "Fell on Black Days", ""Let Me Drown", Spoonman", "Mailman", and "Superunknown" are definitely stone cold brilliant. I qualify it as a flawed classic.
