CHRIS CORNELL Says New Solo Album Will Sound 'Completely Different' Than AUDIOSLAVE

August 7, 2006

Gary Graff of Billboard.com reports that AUDIOSLAVE frontman Chris Cornell has entered the world of film music, writing and recording songs for the next James Bond entry, "Casino Royale", and for the independent movie "Bug". And he confirms that he's also planning to record his second solo album starting in September.

"I'm always writing," Cornell tells Billboard.com. "There's a song here, a song there that I wouldn't be able to put on an AUDIOSLAVE record. AUDIOSLAVE's really been more of a collaboration, anyway, and I'm a guy that writes a lot of songs, and I write a lot by myself."

Cornell says he's "just finishing up" the songs for the solo set, which he'll release in 2007. It will be the former SOUNDGARDEN singer's first since 1999's "Euphoria Morning", and he says that it will sound "completely different" than AUDIOSLAVE.
