The Pretty Reckless singer Taylor Momsen has uploaded a new video of herself listening to Soundgarden’s “Blood on the Valley Floor”, an eerie song from their final album King Animal. Momsen’s musical hero was Chris Cornell, and The Pretty Reckless opened for Soundgarden at their final 2017 shows.

Instagram then oddly deleted the video, so she reuploaded it.

She wrote, “This got deleted somehow, apparently it rocks too hard for IG.”

She tweeted on October 7th, “For the change of the #seasons…studio starts tomorrow #inspiration #sundaymusic #chriscornell #best https://youtu.be/TksqEIl1uxU keep your fingers crossed.”

Momsen wrote a few months ago on Instagram:

“A year ago today was a day I will never forget. I was sitting outside our dressing room in Indianapolis, when I heard someone say ‘Taylor?’ I looked up to see a man standing there, with the sun blazing behind him, he looked familiar…and then my heart dropped, because it was Chris Cornell.

I’d met him a couple times before in passing but here he was, actually talking to me. We spent about 20 minutes chatting about things like singing and their record ‘King Animal’ and how much I loved it. Later that night after we played our show opening for them, we were watching their set from behind the stage when he started talking into the mic, and my heart dropped again when I heard him say our band’s name…twice.

He dedicated ‘By Crooked Steps’ to us and we all were as happy as we could ever be. It was a magical. Kato was with us that night sharing the experience. We have lost so much this year and it has put our passion for music to the test, but as humans we are all built to handle this pain, it will make us stronger, and we will return, because the music will always live on.”
