The last few months, unfounded rumors of a SOUNDGARDEN reunion have been stoked by events like the convening of the Seattle bandmates (minus frontman Chris Cornell) at a Washington club. Afterwards, Cornell was asked what he made of the gig with grunge icon TAD in his place, and whether he’d reunite with the band in the future. His response: “You never know.”
Last week, Cornell spoke to Rolling Stone about MICHAEL JACKSON's influence on a generation of rockers, and told us Soungarden have been talking — not about touring or recording, but about the band’s legacy. “The only thing that we have talked about is trying to put together an album of B sides and maybe a box set with some unreleased tracks we have,” Cornell says. “This is something we first talked about 10 years ago. We all feel it’s time to do that, and we have a lot of fans out there, and we have a lot of new fans discovering our music, and I think the catalog and the legacy of the band has been ignored by the record label and previous management, so we decided to get together, and start working towards putting something like that out.”
