Brighten is Jerry Cantrell’s solo album in nearly two decades

Brighten was released last year by Jerry Cantrell. It is his first independent album and his first solo album in nearly two decades. His last solo album was 2002’s Degradation Trip Volumes 1 & 2. While Jerry Cantrell has played instruments including the guitar and keyboards on this album, it also features other musicians.

Last year, in November, Jerry Cantrell spoke about the process of creating his solo album. He said:

“I just started feeling like I wanted to do one and I've been thinking about it for the last couple of years. And I had the time and the opportunity because we were wrapping up the tour for Rainier Fog. And generally when you do an album campaign, that's about a three-year commitment, from writing, recording, putting the record out, touring it from beginning to end.”

Elaborating on how he got to working on the album, during the pandemic, Cantrell said:

“So we were planning for the inevitable and we were luckily able to get all of the basic tracks recorded before we actually really shut down in mid-March. We didn't really get in big groups."

He added, noting,

"We worked one on one or we sent tracks to guys and they'd do their versions at home and send them back and it was a unique circumstances for sure. But I think it's a really interesting record because of that."

Jerry Cantrell has also shared a video for his song, Prism of Doubt, which features stop-motion characters in a space-like setup. The video revolves around the story of an astronaut who is required to get into a spacecraft when a comet threatens to hit the earth.

The album features singles including Atone, Brighten, and Siren Song, which were released last year.
