    Back from Soundgarden. My ears are ringing, and I am fucking ECSTATIC. Such a phenomenal show, and being able to devote four hours for the treat of being one person away from Chris Cornell, is unbeatable, and something Pearl Jam should consider for North American audiences. A few asides - Matt is a beast, and Kim seems very grumpy.

    Tracks 3 thru 6 are just killer.
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    Boy this has grown on me. I was like "eh" when I first heard it but now I think it stands up against the previous 5 SG albums just fine.

    King Animal, hmmm perhaps I should reserve judgement until it sinks in a bit, its good, but not great in my opinion. The production, well it comes across as watered down Soundgarden really, what happened to the big face melting guitars? Like The Day I Tried to Live or No Attention styles.
    And, where's the drawn out jam's like Jesus Christ Pose or Limo Wreck gone? The drums sound decent, Cornell's voice sounds really strong still and suits this music more than anything else he's tried, but the guitars just aren't loud enough. A bit too polished sounding, rather disappointing really.

    I like it. I don't like it like I like the other tracks, but I like it.

    I can't stop listening to King Animal. It's the exact music I've needed for a while.
