Can't wait for this. New single was a monumental improvement over Live To Rise, and it looks the band can still write a killer riff. If anything it sounds like it'll be a lot like Down On The Upside

Joshua Graham made the album art, so Soundgarden must be the new Neurosis. Insta-5'd.

An older, lighter Soundgarden that surprisingly still manages to create a hypnotic energy that one can only love to be engrossed in. They've been away for too long, and it's great to have them back.

They've still got it, they can still write great songs. Really makes you wonder what the record after DOTU would have sounded like had they not disbanded.

Admittedly, I was never the biggest fan of Soundgarden. Despite loving the music of the 90s (and still do), I found Chris Cornell and company off-putting for whatever reason. Sure, the odd song or two was entertaining, but all in all I didn?t find much special about the band. Fast forward to 2012, a time when bands from the grunge-era seem to be making another go of things for whatever reason (those who managed to survive the decade, that is) and Soundgarden, while a little late to the party, is right alongside their peers in releasing new material. What?s most surprising here is that while most modern releases from bands that haven?t been around for more than a decade have more of a nostalgic feel to them, King Animal has a refreshing quality to it. It almost sounds like the band is truly excited at the notion of playing together again, and have come rejuvenated rather than lazily slapping tracks together. While more time is needed to go through the band?s back catalogue, I would think most fans of this band would be happy with what this album has to offer.

Really loving this at the moment. It's starting to sound better than any of their old stuff to my ears. Just keeps growing more and more on me.

every track on this album kicks ass, by crooked steps, worse dreams, black Saturday and non state actor are the ones which i reckon blow me away the most, Kim thayils still got it, and so does chris cornell

the album has grown on me a little bit more. Maybe after a few more listens I'll understand this more mature sound they have now, and rate it a 4. I can't help but gag at the commercial songs though...
