This week’s new releases include a 6-disc Kitchens of Distinction box set, a new live album from Bauhaus frontman Peter Murphy, a Marc Amond/Soft Cell best-of, a remixed edition of Soundgarden’s debut album ‘Ultramega OK,’ and a new solo album from Bad Religion frontman Greg Graffin.
Two weeks after playing its first show since 1997 (as ‘Nudedragons’), the reunited Soundgarden tonight shared the first official taste of that Seattle gig: a pro-shot video of the band performing ‘Beyond the Wheel,’ a track from its 1988 debut album ‘Ultramega OK.’
