“I Want Blood” is the grunge rocker’s fourth solo album and features big names Guns N’ Roses’ McKagan, Metallica’s Rob Trujillo, Faith No More’s Mike Bordin, Better Lovers’ Greg Puciato in the liner notes.
Prior to the release of this record, Cantrell dropped “Brighten” in 2021. Before that, Cantrell had last released a record in 2002.

Jerry Cantrell new music
“I Want Blood” is due out on Friday, Oct. 18.
Ahead of the record’s release, Cantrell dropped a pair of singles. Up first was the moody 4.5-minute “Afterglow,” which harkens back to his grunge days. For our money, it’s a mellow headbanger in the best way.
More recently, he put out the hard-charging, fist-pumping title track “I Want Blood.”
You can hear both here.
Filter
At all shows, fellow ’90s icon Filter will serve as Cantrell’s special guest.
As a quick refresher, the band broke big thanks to the success of their radio-friendly 1999 single “Take A Picture.” However, you’d be doing the group a disservice if you didn’t give the heavy “Hey Man, Nice Shot,” breakbeat “(Can’t You) Trip Like I Do,” and spaced-out “Where Do We Go From here” a spin.
