Soundgarden - King Animal

Review by Christian Cottingham

There’s something reassuringly uncompromising about this comeback effort, something almost primal in its stubborn cling to a sound resolutely out of step with whatever constitutes the alternative mainstream right now.»

Rough Trade Amazon UK

the band's first new studio album in over 15 years. the band co-produced their sixth studio album with longtime soundgarden friend and producer adam kasper (foo fighters, nirvana, pearl jam) and recorded at studio x in seattle. 'king animal' was mixed by joe barresi (the melvins, queens of the stone age, weezer) in pasadena, california. with two grammy  award wins, seven overall nominations and over 21 million records sold worldwide, soundgarden redefined rock music for a whole generation and had a revolutionary impact on the course of musical history. soundgarden remain a truly 'alternative' band as they embark on the next chapter of their journey, steadfast in their roots with 15 years of growth behind them. 'king animal' follows the musical evolution of one of the world's most groundbreaking bands.
