Album review: Jerry Cantrell – I Want Blood
Alice In Chains guitar legend Jerry Cantrell returns with a thunderous solo album that you can file alongside his best work.
Watch the video for Jerry Cantrell’s Afterglow, directed by Matt Mahurin (who also did Alice In Chains’ No Excuses and Angry Chair).
Following July single Vilified, Jerry Cantrell has just unveiled the second song from his upcoming solo album I Want Blood.
The Alice In Chains legend today (September 6) shares Afterglow, along with a video directed by photographer/filmmaker Matt Mahurin.
“The incredible Matt Mahurin and I created a moving piece of film to accompany the song,” Jerry says. “Check it out. If you want blood, you got it.”
“Two of my all-time favourite videos I’ve directed are No Excuses and Angry Chair for Alice In Chains in the early 1990s,” adds Matt. “To be able to once again offer my visual work to Jerry’s Afterglow some 30 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.”
