Soundgarden man still regrets calling 1999 release Euphoria Morning

Chris Cornell’s debut solo album is to be reissued with the title he originally wanted.

The Soundgarden frontman’s 1999 solo effort Euphoria Morning was so called after Universal Music execs convinced him to adjust it from Euphoria Mourning.

Sixteen years on, it’s being re-released in remastered audio on vinyl, CD and digitally – and with the corrected name – on August 14.

Cornell says: “The title of the record has been restored to its original spelling, which was changed before release after I listened to some bad advice.

“It’s difficult to describe the satisfaction of seeing this as I had originally conceived it. One letter is everything.”

Cornell’s fourth solo album, Higher Truth, will be released on September 18 ahead of a North American tour.
