JERRY CANTRELL Drops New Video For "Afterglow" By Larry Petro, News Monkey Monday, September 9, 2024 @ 11:02 AM
"The incredible Matt Mahurin and I created a moving piece of film to accompany the song," Cantrell says, adding "Check it out. If you want blood, you got it."
"Two of my all-time favorite videos I've directed are "No Excuses" and "Angry Chair" for ALICE IN CHAINS in the early 1990's. To be able to once again offer my visual work to Jerry's "Afterglow" some thirty years later was a blast. From opera aria to pop tune, everybody sees a movie playing in their mind's eye when they listen to a song. Jerry inspired a welcome fever dream that I was grateful to lure out of my mind's eye," Mahurin shares. Mahurin's work has been featured in The New York Times, Time, Rolling Stone, and his photographs are on permanent display at The Metropolitan Museum of Art.
"Afterglow" is the second song from Cantrell's upcoming album, I Want Blood, with "Vilified" debuting last month. The track, which features guest performances from Duff McKagan (Guns N' Roses) and Gil Sharone (Team Sleep, Stolen Babies), was praised by Revolver as "anxiety-stirring" and "eerie," while Metal Hammer simply called it "brilliant."

The album features contributions from the aforementioned McKagan, and Sharone, as well as Robert Trujillo (Metallica), Mike Bordin (Faith No More), Greg Puciato (Better Lovers, ex-Dillinger Escape Plan), and Lola Colette.
A tour with BUSH concludes in mid-September with the North American outing wrapping up at the iconic Greek Theatre in Los Angeles on Sept 15. The remaining dates are:
