I don't think Revelations is as bad as people make out - Wide Awake may well be my favourite Audioslave song, there are a handful of others I like too.

Someone around here said somethin pretty similar the last time this came up so I downloaded it and listened through it. It might be worse than some people make out.

I'm not saying it's all good, but I think Revelations, Until We Fall, Shape Of Things To Come, Wide Awake and Moth are all good songs. I think you could make a decent album if you took the best songs from the second and third records.

Hey!!! Trying to remember the last time I saw you, PJ at Shepherd's Bush maybe?!

Think it might have been! May be seeing you in Manchester or at some future Soundgarden gig in London?

Hell yeah! I'm doing Manchester day one, plus Amsterdam And of course any proper Soundgarden show, not sure I can be bothered with Download......

M1 for me too (only one :( ) Make sure you keep an eye on the meet up thread for before the gig! Not bothered with Download either.

Just watching a programme on Sky Arts - Metal Evolution. All about grunge tonight. Showing some good ol' Soundgarden. Aaaahhhh.... those were the years!

I just watched it too, really cool stuff - loved that bit of recent footage of Soundgarden playing Beyond The Wheel, Cornell sounded awesome! Have you seen Soundgarden live before?

Haven't been that lucky face. Have been 'with' the band since Screaming Life came out but that's about it... records only.

I only saw them once, at Reading in '95, at the tender age of 13!

Aaarrgghh... I remember that Reading - Soundgarden, Neil Young, Foos, Mudhoney, Skunk Anansie (and others).
I really wanted to go but had new baby, etc. (yeah... I was a bit older than 13!). And here I was thinking 'maybe next year'....

Yeah it's hard to believe quite how long they've been away for really.

But then there was Audioslave for a while. Filled a bit of a gap!

See I find their first album to be kinda just Meh while Revelations, well I actually really like.

Please tell me your joking :shock:

Saw them live in '03 just after PJ had toured. I actually enjoyed the show, though back then they only had one album out so we didnt get to hear anything off the later two (obviously). Like all the stuff they did. Chris's voice was in fine form.

I love Audioslave; never got to see them live though. :(

I didn't start going to Reading until 1999.
