Soundgarden's First Single "Been Away Too Long" Has Leaked


Recommended Posts

Not bad. The music is good, and the vocals (as in Chris' voice) are good, but the actual singing seems a bit out of place. I think this song is more of a grower, but after one listen, I like the Avengers song more so far.

Still very excited for the rest of the album.

Sounds fantastic!

You can definately tell Matt Cameron is taking some of his influence from Pearl Jam over to Soundgarden. He wrote poppier songs for Pearl Jam like the The Fixer and it wouldn't surprise me if he was the mind behind Been For Too Long

I'm not digging it. Cornell's voice is SHOT, and the song itself isn't that strong. Here's hoping the rest of the album is better.

I think his voice sounds pretty damn good considering his age and the way he's been singing for however many years.

Like I said though, the song definitely has grown on it, and I expect the rest of the album to be better. I think this is one of those singles that's OK, but they more-so released this song because it's their "Hey, we're back - look at the title of the song!" song.

Cornell's voice far from shot. Anyone who caught the last SG tour(or his solo acoustic tour) could tell you that.

He changes his vocals a lot, so just sounds different on some material vs. others....

Word!

I just preordered the album with 5 bonus demos via amazon. I can't wait for November 9th.
