March 1, 2013, 11 years ago
In a new interview with Kyle Meredith from The Weekly Feed, PEARL JAM guitarist Mike McCready sheds more light on the Deluxe Edition release of Above (details here), the first and only album to be completed by Seattle-based rock supergroup MAD SEASON, which featured McCready alongside vocalist Layne Staley (ALICE IN CHAINS), drummer/percussionist Barrett Martin (SCREAMING TREES) and bassist John Baker Saunders (THE WALKABOUTS, LAMONT CRANSTON BAND). New unreleased songs are featuring Mark Lanegan (SCREAMING TREES), who had sang backups on Above.
McCready also reveals that more leftover tracks from that era may see new life in a group he’s recently put together with Duff McKagan (LOADED, ex-GUNS N' ROSES), Barret Martin, and Jaz Coleman (KILLING JOKE).
