Soundgarden and Chris Cornell's Estate Settle Legal Disputes, Clearing Path for New Album.

Soundgarden and Vicky Cornell, the widow of late singer Chris Cornell, have settled their legal disputes. The resolution will allow the release of the final songs that the band and Chris were working on. Vicky Cornell had accused the band of withholding royalties and trying to buy out her interest in Soundgarden for a low figure. The band argued that the unreleased recordings were made for a Soundgarden album and are property of the group.
