Yeah, the point about the animals dying is fine. Something will kill them eventually.

But it's the destruction of the gulf states' economy--or at least the huge hit they'll take--that is going to really sting.

They will adapt and find something else to do or they won't and they will fail.  Nobody is forced to do anything for a living.  Find another option.

A corporation ruins someone's way of living and you take the "fuck them" approach? 

What about those who have been doing a job their whole lives, it's a tradition in their family, and then BP comes along and ruins it, should we just wash our hands of that because 'they can always work at McDonald's or Wal-Mart!"?

Well that's good and bad. It's a great era, but at the same time, it seems they're just dusting off an unreleased track. hmm

That's exactly what they are doing.  And that's what the original post said as well.  It's an unreleased track that they are now releasing for Guitar Hero. 

I'm happy.  I've always wanted that box set they've talked about. 

I'm wondering if they will play it at Lolla.

Ben said Black Rain is from the Superunknown recording sessions.  9

the video in the background is good. Cornell is back on top form. Has been for a while in fact, but I don't think the casual fans are giving him enough credit for the shape of his vocal chords at the minute,

Yes his voice sounds great, and both the video looks great and the orchestra sounds great. 

And you are right too.  I've seen some people complain about how his voice is a lot raspier now.  But that kinda comes with the territory of getting older for him I guess.  I think he sounds wonderful. 

It also couldn't have come at a better time either considering he will be back to Soundgarden soon.  Hopefully doing a more extensive tour than 2 dates.

I decided to actually post this because he sang Black Hole Sun to the LA Philharmonics rendition of the song, and it sounds pretty damn good.

This is probably the first in a series of steps leading to that box set.

Haven't you got most of soundgardens rare cuts? Ever heard of Black Rain?

Don't have it. Never heard of it either. I don't even think Thayil mentioned it when discussing the box set.

They're not gonna use a track fans have been sitting on for years. The fact its an unknown song is its selling point. If they were gonna go  the familiar route, a hit would have been used instead.

I've never heard of it either.  Soundgarden have a lot of songs written that they've never used for anything.  That's why a box set would be incredible for them to release. 

I love most of their unused cuts that we currently have.  To think that there's much more sitting in a vault somewhere pisses me off.  I'm glad one is finally getting released. 

And with that live version of Spoonman they released, a live album would be a nice touch.

And with them filming the Seattle show this year, a live DVD would be wonderful.

This will be the first track the band has released together since its breakup in 1997. Soundgarden will feature alongside previously announced  artists, such as Jane's Addiction, A Perfect Circle, Black Sabbath, and Megadeth. "

I dunno, Cornell's always been active in recording new material. His solo careeer floundered (twice), so I wouldn't see him choosing to return over SG.  I'd expect an album in 2011. Wouldn't surprise me.

This is also the way I look at it as well.  Carry On and Scream certainly didn't go over too well.

Cornell has a two options.  He can keep going about the solo route and play shows of past hits with plenty of covers thrown in and possibly release a solo album every now and again.

Or he, and the rest of Soundgarden, can get in the studio and start writing new material and put out another record.  With the success of Pearl Jam and AIC there's really no reason these guys wouldn't find success as well.  I know Chris has talked about their history being the perfect legacy to leave behind, but the decision one way or the other needs to be made soon or it'll be made for them.  They aren't exactly spring chickens anymore.  Just look at Ben in those photos.
