When Soundgarden took a final bow in 1997, guitarist Kim Thayil didn't hold out much hope for reuniting with his old bandmates. But following a well-received reunion gig at Lollapalooza in 2010, Thayil and his bandmates' icy feelings toward reuniting thawed, and with a new album in tow, this week's King Animal , the reunion has officially come around full circle for the celebrated grunge heroes. Recently, Thayil spoke with Consequence of Sound about the reunion, the new album, and what it all means for Soundgarden's already weighty legacy.

This past December, Rolling Stonepublished their list of "The100 Greatest Guitarists of all Time," and never mind that there wasn't enough metal on it, it really just plain old sucked. So I have to imagine that the editors of Spinwere highly aware of what dangerous ground they were treading when they made their own list, [...]]]> text/html 2012-01-11T15:13:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3980846/2012-album-preview-soundgarden-tbc/

With the 20th anniversary edition of Nevermind being released earlier this year -- and with the subsequent buzz it churned -- it would seem we are on the brink of a full-blown grunge resurgence...

Is SOUNDGARDEN really as great as they're made out to be? The answer can be heard approximately 57 seconds into Outshined, but it took a few blasts of Superunknown and Badmotorfinger this weekend to make me forgive their listless set at the Prudential Center. Only four people in the nearly sold-out arena didn't seem thrilled ...]]> text/html 2011-04-15T15:30:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3367802/soundgarden-are-touring/
I'm cynical about the Soundgarden reunion for the reason I'm cynical about most reunions, which is to say, I'm not sure the band has it in them to make a new record that will live up to all the expectations. But usually that concern doesn't/shouldn't apply to a reunited act's live show - I mean, [...]]]> text/html 2011-04-14T14:08:06+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3364289/soundgarden-no-far-um-disco-grunge/


Definitivamente, Kim Thayil um dos membros do Soundgarden que parece mais entusiasmado com o retorno da banda, afinal desde ento, ele tem sido o principal porta-voz. Em recente entrevista para revista Kerrang , o guitarrista disse que o novo lbum no deve soar como um disco grunge. "Queremos garantir que o material nos emocione. A ltima coisa que queremos fazer grunge ou metal", afirmou Thayil.

Vince and I both have framed posters from the Neurosis/Mastodon shows in Brooklyn a few years back, which means we both have the words "A Storm of Light" on our respective walls. But that's really incidental, 'cause they were one of the support acts for those shows. I'd be lying if I said I was [...]]]> text/html 2011-04-05T13:52:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3339504/a-storm-of-light-missing-feat-soundgardens-kim-thayil/
Resident Neurosis visual artist (and ex-Red Sparowes guitarist/Battle Of Mice multi-tasker) Josh Graham & his revolving cast of players are releasing the third A Storm Of Light album next month: The rock-oriented (but still vast) As We Become The Valley of Death, Our Silver Dreams Fade follows 2009's Forgive Us Our Trespasses . (Instead of doing it on house label Neurot, he's jumped to Profound Lore.) Appropriately, the heavy, doomy, truly lighter-lifting 9-song collection includes Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil on two tracks. Graham passed along his thoughts on the collaboration: Read his words and then take a [...]]]> text/html 2011-02-19T21:20:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3217884/saturday-song-to-search-to-good-eye-closed/
Soundgarden continues to be one of those legendary bands that defies pure pigeonholing. Sure, they rose to the top against the early 90s grunge backdrop, but could you really call them "grunge"? Lest we forget that way back when, they were often touted as the forerunners of "alternative metal" (whatever that means), in addition to [...]]]> text/html 2011-01-21T16:30:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3133570/soundgarden-too-busy-repackaging-old-shit-to-tour/
Announced with fanfare in the opening minutes of New Years Day 2010, the return of Soundgarden was supposed to redeem Chris Cornell's tarnished legacy in the aftermath of the Timbaland-produced bomb Scream. Unfortunately, the grunge superstars have to-date spent their so-called reunion trying to sell repackaged collections of previously released music sprinkled sparsely with studio [...]]]> text/html 2010-12-07T18:02:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/3027387/soundgarden-podra-sacar-un-nuevo-lbum/

Dopo la grande notizia della reunion dei Soundgarden , in una recente intervista ad una stazione radio canadese il chitarrista Kim Thayil ha lasciato intendere che il nuovo album dei Soundgarden , tra i pionieri del grunge , potrebbe essere tra i prossimi impegni della band. Cos commenta le news elettrizzanti, per tutti i fan che attendono con impazienza qualcosa di nuovo dal mitico gruppo: "Sono emersi pezzi strumentali, e senza dubbio in alcune occasioni, idee per i testi.

For whatever reason, I just haven't gotten that excited about the Soundgarden reunion yet. Maybe it's not "real" enough for me at this point; maybe when the band finally does a proper tour and I'm holding the ticket in my hand, I'll suddenly be really, really stoked. Or maybe Chris Cornell has just pissed away [...]]]> text/html 2010-09-27T19:18:00+01:00 http://elbo.ws/post/2858291/soundgarden-retrospective-telephantasm-out-tomorrow/

Outside of a Seattle comeback show , a Lollapalooza headlining gig , and a Lolla pre-show , the Soundgarden reunion has so far been a drawn-out tease, a case of just-do-it-already frustration - which, to be fair, probably made the few shows the band has done more special than any of the gazillions of gigs Pavement has churned out. But still, people have been patiently waiting for some dates for...jeez, has it been six months now? A year? In an interview with Seattle's 107.7 The End , Soundgarden (minus Chris Cornell) gave [...]]]>
