Back in July drummer Barrett Martin (Screaming Trees, Mad Season, Walking Papers) revealed Mad Season were completing a few unfinished songs written in the 1990s, using Mark Lanegan on vocals.  This week Martin was interviewed by the Sun Break in a two-part feature which largely focuses on his new project Walking Papers.  In the interview, Martin dropped some info about Mad Season - he announced a box set will be released March 12th, and he also made clear the band worked on the project to honor fallen members Layne Staley and John Baker Saunders.  From the interview:

"...Mike [McCready] and I oversaw a Mad Season box set, which comes out March 12th, 2013. It contains the re-mastered Above album, the Moore concert on DVD with surround sound, and a bunch of live recordings that we never released. The most exciting stuff: three songs that Mark Lanegan wrote lyrics and sang on, songs that we started to record for the second album but never finished because of Baker’s  and Layne’s deaths. One of the songs Peter Buck wrote with us, and the other two are from me and Mike. They are three of the heaviest and most beautiful songs Mad Season did, and I know Layne and Baker will love them."

Read the two-part interview in the Sun Break (via Grunge Report) in full:  Part one mainly talks about Walking Papers, and part two reveals the info about the Mad Season box set.
