Soundgarden to release 3-CD rarities collection Echo Of Miles



Soundgarden will release a 3-CD, 50-track rarities collection, "Echo Of Miles: Scattered Tracks Across The Path", on November 24.

Among the set's seven unreleased tracks is a brand-new recording, "Storm", recorded in May this year with producer Jack Endino in Seattle.

Curated by guitarist Kim Thayil, “Echo Of Miles” features original B-sides, unreleased tracks, instrumentals, covers and demos.

"As album sets go, this one has been fun to collect and compile over the decades," says Thayil. “I personally may have referenced this project a number of times over the years, going back almost twenty of them to the mid-Nineties!"

Disc 1, dubbed "Originals", is filled with Soundgarden songs – mainly B-sides – in addition to two unreleased tunes, "Kristi" and "Storm."

Disc 2, "Covers", presents covers of tracks by The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, The Ramones, Devo and others.

Disc 3, "Oddities", offers instrumentals, remixes and demos, including Steve Fisk's unreleased "The Telephantasm (Resurrection Remix)", "Twin Tower" written by Matt Cameron, which was originally recorded at Seattle's London Bridge studio in December 1988 during the sessions for "Louder Than Love", and "Night Surf", an instrumental performed by bassist Ben Shepherd.

The Seattle band’s last studio album, 20102’s “King Animal”, was the group’s first in 16 years following an extended hiatus.

Soundgarden performed a pair of sets over the weekend at the 28th Annual Bridge School Benefit concerts in California – check out video here.

The event saw singer Chris Cornell team with Pearl Jam for a Temple Of The Dog reunion on Saturday – watch the performance of “Hunger Strike” here.

Also appearing at the Bridge School weekend shows were Neil Young, Florence + The Machine, Tom Jones, Norah Jones, Band Of Horses and others.
