The Coming of Soundgarden's Storm


Something is brewing over at the Soundgarden camp between artwork and new material.  A brand new song emerged earlier today and so far has got everyone on board!  Check out the new single "Storm" which most of us are hoping is a precursor to a new album.  More details as they come in!



A few YouTube comments have resonated my feelings towards the song as well with references to "Louder Than Love" (1989) or "Badmotorfinger" (1991).  While "Superunknown" (1994) was my first experience into Soundgarden's world, I tend to agree that this kind of music blends the old with the new.  A eerie tempo, dark imagery, and some killer drum beats makes for an impressive new single.  Let's hope they can keep the momentum for an entire new album!


UPDATE!
