Soundgarden “King Animal”

Soundgarden
“King Animal”
Seven Four Entertainment/Republic

I’m going to be honest, I actually haven’t heard the new Soundgarden album with the visionary title of “King Animal”. But that is not going to stop me from dropping this review on you because I did hear the albums first track and debut (I’m guessing only after hearing it) single (which was mistakenly) called “I’ve Been Away Too Long” live on David Letterman’s Late Show. (Watch it below)

Actually Mr. Cornell, you haven’t been away long enough dude. In fact, if you could have gone away before that Timbaland produced solo record I probably would have given this heap of crap more of a chance.

Axl gives this new Soundgarden album the rating of “BAD”.

    WOOOOOO. Hopefully the Garden tours with Chickenfoot. HELLYEAH. TIME MACHINE. People still swallowed pills in Los Angeles before I moved here.

    You know what's been away for too long? Buddyhead. Damn man, you motherfuckers used to be the most feared names in music, now your barely writing reviews. It's time to pack it in fellas. It was awesome while it lasted.

    Sounds about right… Hack journalist/photographer/failed musician pans album he hasn't heard. Whatta douche-bag. Why don't you just listen to the fucking thing thing so you can get on with soliciting people to buy it for you?

    Or you can just keep going this way and maybe land a job on Fox News… They're always looking for a failed, bitter old whore to tap into that youth market. You could do segments on O'Reilly in between Adam Carrola and Dennis Miller.

    Either way go fuck yourself!

  • orbison huey
