Soundgarden

In June 2013, when Soundgarden took the stage at Hovet in Stockholm, they were riding the wave of their comeback following a long hiatus. The live recording captures this pivotal moment for the band, as they had recently released their highly acclaimed album, *King Animal*, in late 2012. This album marked their first studio effort in nearly 16 years and successfully bridged the gap between their original grunge sound and a more refined, mature approach. Interestingly, *King Animal* not only showcased their signature heavy riffs but also highlighted Chris Cornell's dynamic vocal range, reigniting both fan and critical interest. The performance at Hovet featured classics like "Outshined," allowing fans to both relive the nostalgia of their early hits and embrace their new material. It’s a testament to how Soundgarden effortlessly blended past and present, making that night in Stockholm unforgettable.
