Soundgarden’s Kim Thayil was recently interviewed by WRIF, and revealed that their new album will probably be released in late 2017. You can see what he had to say about that below.

“We’re shooting for late 2017. We’ve already done some writing. We have some more writing to do, and then there’s the whole studio process. Some people whip out albums in a few weeks or a few months, and Soundgarden, given our different schedules, takes a matter of months.

We do something for a few weeks, and then come back a few months later or a month later and revisit it. So, we’re fairly attentive of what we do, so we want to make sure it has the right amount…it has precision where it needs precision. It has chaos and looseness where you want the song to be wild.

It has color where you want it to really shine. We really roll the thing over, you know. That’s our process. It’s probably because you have four different, strong opinions and four different songwriters without adding the addition of the producer. It’s definitely a fun and dynamic process.”

In other news, you can now check out an unboxing video for the 25th anniversary edition box set of “Badmotorfinger.” That will be available tomorrow (November 18).
