"Revisiting Ultramega OK, it's obvious in retrospect that Soundgarden were going to clamber to an exalted position in rock. They managed to balance their mad-scientist tendencies with an innate savvy about how to craft a rock song-even when they were six minutes long and based around one chord. The album captures the band on the eve of being swept into the major-label system, and it predicts how they would wring rock hits out of unexpected building blocks".

"The newly remixed reissue of Ultramega OK is a long time coming-the members haven't been happy with the original mix by Drew Canulette since its release on SST nearly three decades ago. Soundgarden tapped producer Jack Endino, the man they originally wanted to remix the record, to come in and make things right. Which he's done ... As far as where Ultramega OK stands in the Soundgarden catalog, it still doesn't hold up to later records, but it does contain some of their best songs".
