Soundgarden have released a video of them performing Searching With My Good Eye Closed in 1992.

The performance was captured during the band’s show at the Paramount in Seattle that year and will feature on Soundgarden’s upcoming 25th anniversary edition of 1991 album Badmotorfinger, set for release on November 18.

They previously released a studio outtake version of classic track Rusty Cage.

Last month Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil reported that they were 12 songs into their next album – which they were juggling with Chris Cornell and drummer Matt Cameron’s Temple Of The Dog reunion.

He said: “Over the past year we’ve had a number of songwriting and jam sessions, getting together to exchange ideas and document and record them. We have some rough demos of a dozen or so songs.

“We’ll continue to do this as everyone’s schedule opens up, and hopefully by next year we’ll find ourselves in the studio fleshing out these ideas.”

This week Soundgarden confirmed a new ice cream flavour called Black Hole Rum will launch on October 30.

Made by Seattle’s Full Tilt Ice Cream shops, it’s the latest flavour in the gelateria’s Icon Series – described as “a rum ice cream with a dark fudge swirl.”

The firm’s owners, Justin Cline and Ann Magyar, are said to be longtime fans of the city’s rock scene. They’d previously created their Mudhoney flavour in 2013 – inspired by the Seattle alt-rock band of the same name.
