Soundgarden cheat their way to a platinum album.

Just thought that was kind of funny.

 

Kinda clever, actually.

 

That is quite interesting, a publicity stunt, i think?

 

I don't see how that is cheating. It's just a smart tactic for getting your album around since Soundgarden has been broken up for 15+ years and are now back together.

 

That's pretty awesome and smart, actually. My respect for Soundgarden has just been raised because of this.
