Soundgarden in Avengers’ Official Sound Track

The soundtrack of “The Avengers” features Soundgarden’s “Live to Rise”, first new song of the band after 15 years. Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell said they were working on a reunion album to be release soon and will be the band’s first record since 1996’s ‘Down On the Upside.’ Let me hear your cheer all you Soundgarden fans out there!

Soundgarden was one of the seminal bands in the creation of grunge, a style of alternative rock that developed in Seattle in 1984 by Chris Cornell (vocals), Kim Thayil (lead guitarist) and Hiro Yamamoto (bassist). Matt Cameron became the band’s full time drummer in 1986 while bassist Ben Shepherd became a permanent replacement for Yamamoto in 1990.

Soundgarden achieved its biggest success with the 1994 album Superunknown, which debuted at number one on the Billboard charts and yielded the Grammy Award-winning singles “Black Hole Sun” and “Spoonman”. In 1997, the band broke up due to internal strife over its creative direction. After several years working on projects and other bands, Soundgarden reunited in 2010 and is currently working on a new album, which is slated for release in the spring of 2012. ~wikipedia
