Taylor Momsen has confirmed that reunited members of Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine guitarist Tom Morello are featured on on The Pretty Reckless’ new album Death By Rock and Roll.

Momsen told Meltdown of Detroit’s WRIF radio station about The Pretty Reckless’ new song “Only Love Can Save Me Now” and where it was recorded, “We recorded that in Seattle at London Bridge Studios, and it was just an awesome experience to get to actually spend some time in Seattle. Every time we’re on tour, we’re in and out so fast, it was really good to kind of experience the city for all that it is and all that history and record at such an iconic studio. I mean, Pearl Jam’s ‘Ten’ [was recorded] there, and ‘Louder Than Love’ by Soundgarden. And then to be there with Soundgarden, it was pretty surreal.”

Momsen added that she was “devastated” by the death of Chris Cornell after a May 2017 show in Detroit where The Pretty Reckless opened for Soundgarden. Momsen also lost producer Kato Khandwala in a motorcycle accident in April 2018.

“We had a few hard years. I’m not gonna lie. I went pretty down. Not to get too heavy into it, but I went pretty down into depression, and it took music to get me out of it again. I finally started writing again to get out everything that I was feeling, and that is what turned into the record that you are all going to hear hopefully very soon. I know it’s cliché, but music has saved my life time and time again — it’s the thing that I can always rely on and turn to, and it’s always there for me. It’s always supported me, so I support it.”
