Name Change for Chris Cornell

Soundgarden vocalist Chris Cornell will re-release his 1999 debut solo album, Euphoria Morning, on August 14th under the original title of Euphoria Mourning.  Yup.  He just added the ‘u.’

This Is Why…

Cornell explained that he was persuaded to change the original name when the record was first released, saying in a statement, “The title of the record has been restored to its original spelling, which was changed before release after I listened to some bad advice.”

The disc has been remastered and will arrive on vinyl for the first time, along with CD and digital editions.  The singer has a new solo album called Higher Truth set for release on September 18.
