SOUNDGARDEN Launching Album-Of-The-Month Club

March 8, 2019

We may have lost singer Chris Cornell but that doesn’t mean Soundgarden is done. They’re celebrating their 35th anniversary by launching a new album-of-the-month club!

They’ll be releasing a coloured vinyl monthly, starting with “Superunknown” on April 5. Other albums included in the club are “Louder Than Love”, “Badmotorfinger”, “Down On The Upside”and “King Animal”.

Singer Chris Cornell was pronounced dead on May 18, 2017 after being found unresponsive in a Detroit hotel room. Cornell had sedatives and an anxiety drug in his system, but died after hanging himself.

Guitarist Kim Thayil told Billboard that it’s unlikely they’d continue the band without Cornell, “It’s not likely that we could ever do Soundgarden without a missing piece. I’d like to do more with Matt [Cameron, drums] in the future. I’d like to do something with Ben [Shepherd, bass] in the future. It’s likely Matt and Ben and I will do something in the future — it just probably won’t be Soundgarden. I don’t see the dignity in pursuing that course.”
