Telephantasm is a compilation album by the American alternative rock band Soundgarden with songs spanning the band's thirteen-year career. It was released on September 28, 2010 through A&M Records and was certified platinum by RIAA after its first day of retail availability based on the one million discs that were included in packages for the video game Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock.[1]

Overview

The album was released in September 2010 on A&M Records following the band's reunion earlier that year. The career-spanning retrospective album includes an unreleased track, "Black Rain", taken from the Badmotorfinger recording sessions. In late August 2010, "Black Rain" reached #44 on the Canadian Hot 100 and #96 on the US Billboard Hot 100.

The 1-CD version of the album is featured in the music video game Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, with "Black Rain" available on the disc, and the remaining eleven tracks available as downloadable content alongside release of the game.

The album features artwork by Josh Graham, who handles the visual arts for Neurosis, as well as artwork for other artists.[2]
