Influential grunge rockers Soundgarden – set to take center stage at Lollapalooza this weekend – have announced a new compilation due for a fall release.

Telephantasm: A Retrospective, as it’s called, will feature songs from all of the band’s albums and EPs, plus a new vault track, “Black Rain,” recorded during the Badmotorfinger sessions in 1991. The set will be included as a bonus disc with the upcoming video game Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock, to be released September 28, and will be available individually on October 5 in both standard and deluxe (double CD and DVD) packages. This is the band’s first product since 1997’s A-Sides, a compilation quickly assembled after the band’s breakup earlier that year. Lead singer Chris Cornell went on to head Audioslave and work on his own solo career before reuniting with his bandmates earlier this year.

UPDATE: Thanks to Anth for pointing us toward the track listing from Spin. Check it out after the jump.
