Soundgarden

In May 2013, when Soundgarden took the stage at the Susquehanna Bank Center during the Rock on the Range festival, the band was riding a wave of resurgence. Just a year prior, they released *King Animal*, their first studio album in over a decade, marking a significant comeback after their hiatus. The album showcased their signature sound, blending heavy riffs with Chris Cornell's hauntingly powerful vocals, reflecting their roots while still feeling fresh. Interestingly, this live performance featured classics like "Black Hole Sun" and "Rusty Cage," staples of their early '90s era, as well as newer tracks like "Been Away Too Long." The energy in the crowd must have mirrored the band’s own journey—coming back together and celebrating their legacy after years apart. This setlist beautifully encapsulates the essence of their career, bridging new material with beloved hits, and reminds us why they’ve left such an indelible mark on rock music.
