Kim Thayil of Soundgarden spoke to Canadian radio station CFNY-FM last week and say that Soundgarden could possibly release a new record soon. Thayil says, "When we get together to rehearse it's natural for us... to start jamming and inventing. We've come up with instrumental, and certainly on occasion, lyrical ideas. I'm not confirming anything, but it's impossible for us to get in a room and not come up with ideas." The band headlined Lollapalooza this past summer to a loud and stunning performance. Take a look at our review HERE.
Peter Bjorn and John will release the follow up to last years Living Things on March 29. No word as to what the title will be.
