Soundgarden have just released their new album, King Animal, on 12 November, and it kicks so much arse it shouldn’t even be legal! To help launch the project, the band appeared on The Late Show with David Letterman Monday night. Surprise surprise, they rocked it there too. Soundgarden performed the single from their first album [...]

Soundgarden’s new album, King Animal, which will be officially released on 12th November this year, is now available on ZME Music where you can listen to it freely as long as you want. This album is really great and if 15 years of break is what it takes to make such an album, I think [...]

It seems that 2012 is a great year for those bands with a history in the music industry to reunite or to release a new album after a break that lasted years (Dead Can Dance for example). So, Soundgarden decided to release a new album together – which is great news. But hey, if this [...]

“Smells Like Teen Spirit” at 20: Importance doesn’t necessarily equal excellence

I may be a month (or two) late with this, but oh well…. ————– I was five when “Smells Like Teen Spirit” was released and “altered the face of the 90s.” Or made Kurt the voice of Gen X’ers.  Or however it’s being described this week.  I wasn’t able to appreciate its meteoric rise to [...]

After a series of intense reunion tour dates and a recently released platinum awarded compilation album, albeit released bundled with Guitar Hero cards, Soundgarden rocked the house last night for Coco with two great tracks off  Telephantasm. The band first started with “Black Rain”, a previously unreleased studio leftover from the Badmotorfinger sessions, after which [...]

Soundgarden Prepare Telephantasm

Things are still a-stir in the world of Soundgarden. Now that all involved have entered a healthful middle age, they’ve cast their one good eye towards the past, and played a number of reunion shows, including what looks like an excellent set at grimly indie-fied festibule Lollapalooza. (Moderately tuneful but utterly bland British glumsters Mumford [...]

Or, as they’re perhaps more commonly known, Soundgarden. Y’know: Soundgarden. The most interesting band of the big Seattle four, who recently played a reunion show at the famous Showbox Theatre. That Soundgarden. And now there is a pro-shot video of their performance of Beyond The Wheel from that gig, which – quite honestly – defies [...]

Soundgarden make surprise return in Seattle

What if you were told that there was a slim chance that Soundgarden might reform? Or if Kim Thayil, Matt Cameron and Ben Shepherd actually got up on stage in Seattle earlier this week at a Tom Morello solo show? Well, as reported by Reverb (the Seattle Weekly music blog), what would “probably not happen” [...]
