Soundgarden's first studio album release in 16 years will be titled " King Animal" and word on the street is that it will more than likely be released on the 13th of November, don't put it in your diary though as the date is tentative.
Soundgarden released the single " Live to Rise" earlier this year to mixed reviews as a contribution to the soundtrack for the movie "Marvel's The Avengers."
Some regard Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil as the saviour of the band, what with Chris Cornell's very un-rock & roll solo experiments like the hip-hop influenced collaboration with Timbaland, "Scream."
Having said that Thayil reveals in an upcoming interview with Rolling Stone that the new album " re-establishes that we still rock, we're still heavy, and we're still a little weird." Hopefully that will give fans disappointed with the first offering something to get excited about.
Speaking of which, here is a preview of " Worst Dreams" from the album "King Animal."
