In a new interview with Hails and Horns, Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil discussed possible Soundgarden B-side releases, “We never put out the B-sides because we went from Telephantasm to Live on I-5 then we started recording the new album. So the B-sides compilation has been put on hold. We want it to be a standalone album of Soundgarden originals that were not compiled in an album format. It might be two or three albums. There’s one that would be originals that were only available on compilation records for other labels or movie soundtracks, or B-sides in Australia and Europe. We also want to do an album of some covers that we’ve recorded. Then I want to do an album of some instrumental stuff and some dub mixes.”

Thayil also discussed Soundgarden’s future, “Just like I explained when people asked why we broke up, “Not much is written in stone.” I used to ask, “What’s the longest you ever had a girlfriend or boyfriend?” or ‘What’s the longest you’ve ever had a job?’ Soundgarden was together for 13 years. At that point I’d never been with a girl that long, or had any other job that long. But yes, for the foreseeable future. It’s always going if it’s going.”
