Chris Cornell has finished recording his new solo album

Soundgarden frontman Chris Cornell has confirmed that he’s finished recording his new solo album.

Cornell posted a picture from the recording studio on his Facebook page along with a short message thanking his collaborators.

“Last day of recording solo album. Thanks Brendan, Tom and Kyle. We made the magic happen,” it read.

Cornell’s last solo LP was 2011’s Songbook. He is due to return to the studio later this year to get underway recording Soundgarden’s new album, the follow up to 2012’s King Animal.

Soundgarden released their Echo of Miles: Scattered Tracks Across the Path box set earlier this year, a collection of b-sides, rarities and alternative cuts.
