Originally Appeared In

When Big Day Out was born 20 years ago, a new wave of music was emerging from the American north-west. At the crest of that wave was one of the most incendiary heavy rock bands of our time: Soundgarden. It’s been 15 years since they last graced our shores and the first time since 1997 that Soundgarden will perform outside of the USA!

Soundgarden will be joined on these side shows by very special guests, The Bronx. This LA quintet churn out raw riffs and piercing hooks, the band channels their kinetic live energy through razor sharp wit and unbridled aggression. No sombreros or alter egos here just the straight up power of The Bronx.
