Jerry Cantrell Calls ‘I Want Blood’ a ‘Motherf—er’ of an Album

Cantrell has previewed I Want Blood with three singles so far: “Vilified,” “Afterglow” and the title track. The album follows 2021’s Brighten and features contributions from Duff McKagan of Guns N’ Roses, Robert Trujillo of Metallica, Mike Bordin of Faith No More and others.

“This record is a serious piece of work. It’s a motherfucker,” Cantrell said in a press release. “It’s hard, no doubt, and completely unlike Brighten. And that’s what you want, to end up in a different place. There’s a confidence to this album. I think it’s some of my best songwriting and playing, and certainly some of my best singing.”

Cantrell told UCR that his heavy touring in support of Brighten lit a fire under him to work on a new solo album. “We did a bunch of touring, and so I was pretty energized,” he said. “Only took me a few months, maybe, if that, to get into like, ‘OK, I need to start doing some demos, man. I want to do this one more time.’ And I didn’t really intend for it to be the case. But, you know, life often gives you signs if you’re doing the right thing.”
