SOUNGARDEN REUNION

As the “uber” post modernist time we live in main thing is that nothing new can be invented and it’s all just new versions of old things, the rock world is not different. So you probably know by now that we r in the reunions era.

The reasons for a hard rock band to reunite are money – sometimes rockers need money you know, but it can be greed (mostly record companies which want to cash in on a trend), the Loop effect in the world we live in is a reason too as music and fashion styles have a come back every 20 years or so. And sure you have another reason, which is the one less occurring – musicians can’t stop writing songs, want to play together and record, so they get together to jam, see it’s really great and have a reunion.

The reason for the SOUNDGARDEN REUNION announced just this weekend (http://www.soundgardenworld.com/) is uncertain. It might be the ALICE IN CHAINS reunion/comeback (http://scandalsevenblog.wordpress.com/2009/07/19/alice-in-fuckin-chains/).
Someone understood that so many rock veterans getting reunited has a monetary upturn. There is no other explanation.




Here are some of those reunions we had in the last couple of years:
ROB HALFORD returns to JUDAS PRIEST – 2003.
DAVID LEE ROTH returns to VAN HALEN – 2006.
LED ZEPPELIN’s gig – 2007
These are just a few, not to mention the last two SLAYER records, TESTAMENT play live and the metal scene of the first days of thrash metal revisited with avenges.

As for now, we don’t know what the Soundgarden reunion is all about. One big gig is promised, but we at the UK DARKNESS CREW think that if they’ll get into the studio and record a new album is a great idea.
Don’t you?
