Soundgarden is Back!!!!!

L - R: Kim Thayil, Chris Cornell and Ben Shepherd.(Matt Cameron hidden in this view)

If you unwind the clock a little bit and if you've stumbled across a song called "Black hole sun" on MTV back in the day, then that's the men behind the song we're talking about. 

Soundgarden was one of  prominent and influential bands of the early 90's alongwith Seattle contemporaries NirvanaAlice in Chains and Pearl Jam. They contributed immensly to a distinct style of music which was later to be labeled as Grunge by the media and the recording industry. They created records which were the most daring and experimental at that time not bowing down to the pressures of Album sales.

Their music is timeless and the songs are structured and constructed like exquisite pieces of art - if you're willing to explore and savor the music. Chris Cornell's mesmerising voice, Kim Thayill's ethereal playing, Ben shepherd's throbbing bass and Matt Cameron's brilliant drumming is a sight to behold for any music enthusiast.

Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain was a fan of Soundgarden's early music. After 12 long years they've come together and released a new Album.
