Soundgarden

On May 3rd, 2013, Soundgarden rocked the Borgata Event Center in Atlantic City, marking a significant moment in their comeback era. Just a year prior, they had released *King Animal*, their first studio album in 16 years, which showcased the band’s ability to meld heavy rock with haunting melodies, proving that they hadn’t lost their edge. This live recording captures the band in their element, delivering a setlist that celebrates their deep catalog while infusing fresh energy. Interestingly, the show took place right in the midst of a resurgence for the band, following the tragic death of their iconic frontman Chris Cornell in 2017, which left an indelible mark on music history. While the 2013 performance breathed life into old favorites like "Black Hole Sun," it also served as a testament to their lasting influence and the enduring power of their sound. This concert not only celebrated their past but hinted at the legacy they would continue to build.
