Giant Walker guitarist Jamie Southern joins Spinning the Wax to play one of his all-time favorite records: Soundgarden's "Superunknown"
The band is a huge influence on Giant Walker, which is evident to anyone who listens to them. We chat about the identity crisis Chris Cornell had while writing the record, how producer Michael Beinhorn brought out the best in the band, and how so many of these tracks stick with you for years.
Jamie also dives into his disdain for the idea of genres, how the relationship with his bandmates has helped their music progress, and how music school classmates looked down on rock 'n' roll.
"Silhouettes" by Giant Walker is available everywhere now via Church Road Records.
Spinning the Wax is a heavy music interview series where guests spin a record of their choice and have a candid discussion while listening.
