Wasn't Soundgarden's initial single title from their reunion record hilariously cliche like "We're Back" or "Guess Who's Back" or something?

I was reading up on the Automatic for the People Atmos mix and I feel like this is going to be something awesome from the band if mixed well.

For the record, is it pronounced:

"C minus" or "C negative" or "C Dash"

it was I Been Away For Too Long, and it's an awesome song. One of the best bridges in the catalog.
Yeah, I knew it was something cheesy. Anyway, we'll agree to disagree. 8-)

interesting question

perhaps we should create a ‘rumors and speculation’ thread and dissect this

we could do that, but I'm just going to say "kid c dash" to myself and leave it to other, smarter people to sort it out.

https://www.seattletimes.com/entertainm ... ammy-week/

"Without drawing too many conclusions from a single listen, much of “Gigaton” feels like new terrain for the Rock & Roll Hall of Famers. At times there are hints of post-punk, warbly psych licks, spaced-out synth sounds, as well as Who-vian stadium thunder that wouldn’t sound out of place on other Pearl Jam records. For those wondering, “Dance of the Clairvoyants” may reside on the outer edges of the band’s latest experiments."
This is a good quote.

we all know way ahead of time that they put out DotC as the big curveball and Super Big Wolf Man is definitely going to be the most PJ rocker thing you ever heard right?

adjust expectations accordingly.
