I've been so afraid of being disappointed, I haven't even listened to King Animal. Does this song sound like the stuff they did on the comeback album? Because I didn't exactly like it. I'm going to have to face my fears and just listen to that album.

The artwork with the eye is hideous, I really hope that isn't the one for the next album.

They're coming out with a B-sides compilation album next month, so it would be logical logical that's the cover art for it.

EDIT: No, scrap that. It really looks like cover art for new stuff.

Damn, you gave me false hope for a second. I never found their covers exceptional or pleasant to look at anyway, at least there's nothing new here.

Upon further inspection, that mass of people looks like a concert crowd...

Yes, but the awkward blending with the eye, the weird way the whole thing has been cut on the sides creating that wavy shape... Nah .

Sounds like they're going for a Killing Jokey thing a bit. Not sure it's all that good though.

The eye album art is pretty horrible. The other one isn't too shabby though.

It's a little bit different; it's melodic but more...brooding.
Also, if you want a list of all the Soundgarden songs from King Animal that probably won't disappoint, I can give them to you. I know what sucks.

Haha, that sounds like a really safe way to get into the album, but maybe too safe. Give me three song titles, I'm curious .

Also, I grew up listening to the Soundgarden B-sides, and I think they might be the best B-side group I've ever come across. So I can't wait for the November 3-CD release. I'm "pitted": http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y5ckCAUVOn0

"Non-state Actor" and "By Crooked Steps" are some really good tunes on that album. I particularly like "Non-state Actor", I keep remembering that song from time to time and end up singing it in random places.

A Thousand Days Before, Bones of Birds and Taree

I like it.
Sounds like something off their Louder Than Love album, which is my favorite by them.
If the whole albums continues like this, it'll be good.
