Soundgarden Sign Worldwide Publishing Agreement with BMG Chrysalis US
They like THE ROCK at BMG Chrysalis US: The multinational music rights management concern – which maintains offices in New York City and Los Angeles — just made a big addition to its million-plus-song repertoire, with the signing of Soundgarden to a worldwide administration agreement.
BMG Chrysalis has toughened up with Soundgarden on board.
The deal covers Soundgarden’s entire catalog. Seattle’s famed Chris Cornell-fronted rock four-piece brings a formidable collection of hits to BMG Chrysalis US, which include the GRAMMY Award-winning “Spoonman,” and “Black Hole Sun”, along with pioneering songs like “Rusty Cage” and “Outshined”.
Highlights for Soundgarden include the 1994 album Superunknown, which debuted at Number One on the Billboard charts and yielded the aforementioned singles. The band took a 12-year hiatus in 1998, then reassembled in 2010 to record and tour, including a headlining slot at the Lollapalooza Festival. The band’s Fall, 2012 release, King Animal, was their first in 16 years — the second leg of their North American tour begins in May 2013.
