Second Brad album, Interiors...

Not as good as Shame, but his voice still sounds great.

I spoke to CDBaby last night and 300ft Gorilla is expected to be on there in a few weeks.

Let's hope it's a return to form , rather than another Amalgamut!

It's sounds like a Madonna record to start with. Then you hear him sing - and you're right Zak, I then had to put on Jesus Christ Pose to remind me what he should sound like.

When I was in Canada in 07 there was talk on the news of a Soundgarden reformation. I doubt that will happen now - the rest of the band will be too busy taking the piss out of Cornell to play any music

Really good Album if a bit "Unusual"

Buttons and Soon we'll be found are also great tracks

I just can't help myself with this one....

Really liking the new version as well. Subtle in places, but still fresh as it ever was.

I can't hear any significant differences on the Re-master on my studio monitors. Fairly pointless really.

I'm not really a fan of Brendan O'Brien's work. He's recorded some great albums but seems to make them sound very harsh in the mix. Even my favourite - Dogman could be a lot better when listening on a proper system. And he's managed to do the same trick with Ten. Too toppy, harsh and tiring to listen to IMO.

Senser - the guitar sound is still to thin, but the drummer and bass player still sound good. The cockney rapping means it doesn't sound dated either!

Still it's not as good as Age of Panic (unfortunately unavailable on Spotify)

No one ever comes to gigs when they say they will!

Out of 30 promises to my last ark gig not ONE actually turned up.

I got 3 people in. Mick got 2 people in. Paul got 5 I think.

Very disappointing.

The truth of the matter is though, after a certain age, people don't want to come out on a work night.
