180-gram self-titled 2LP commemorating Chris Cornell

Limited time album download included

The Chris Cornell Estate presents a self-titled album commemorating the rock icon. The release follows Cornell's unexpected death in 2017, a loss that reverberated through the music industry far beyond the borders of Seattle. The announcement was paired with the first single from the album Chris Cornell, “When Bad Does Good.”

"Since Chris' sudden passing I have put all my efforts and energy into sharing his music and legacy with his fans from all over the world," said the late songwriter's wife, Vicky Cornell, in a statement. "I felt we needed to create a special collection to represent all of him - the friend, husband and father, the risk taker and innovator, the poet and artist. His soaring vocals found their way into the hearts and souls of so many. His voice was his vision and his words were his peace."

"When Bad Does Good" was recorded and produced by Cornell, and recovered from his personal archive of recordings for inclusion on Chris Cornell. Instrumentally simple, the track allows his legendary vocals to stay at the forefront for its entirety. It's one of two previously unreleased songs to be included on the self-titled 2LP and fulfills the album's aim to highlight his songwriting prowess.

The 2LP comes with a 12-page booklet. The booklet contains unreleased photos, as well as liner notes from bandmates Kim Thayil, Matt Cameron and Tom Morello, among others.
