    Cool to know I enjoyed Out Of Exile*ducks for cover* Dandelion was one of my favourite songs released last year, so they're not a patch on Soundgarden, they're better than most of the shit around at the moment though.

    Out of Exile was a huge improvement over their first album. Dandelion and Heaven's Dead are nice songs.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.
  • WOOOO! I love audioslave, i cant decide between their first two albums I love them both. Any Chris Cornell project is bound to be good although Soundgarden is still the greatest.

    To sum:

    Audioslave blows and I wish they would stop making music. Or start making good music. I know these guys can, but it has been almost a decade since I've heard anything decent from Cornell and a while since Zach's backing band has been in on anything good.

    I miss the old morello

  • How can u say audioslave is bad, it may not be as good as soundgarden and most say not as good as rage (although im not a huge fan) but when u comapre it to most of the shit that is around at the moment then its pretty decent.

    Compared to what is being played on the radio you might barely have a sliver of an argument. Seeing as I haven't listened to the radio in a couple years, that part of the musical spectrum is pretty much dead to me. I'm not a huge Soundgarden fan either, but they blew Audioslave away. I was a HUGE RATM fan so I was really hyped when this project came about, but I have been pretty much disappointed by shitty lyrics, tired, listless music, and really really underwhelming guitar work by tom morello.

    As compared to other music that is out today? Audioslave still blows. I could probably name 50 albums I genuinely liked more than Audioslave last year. If you want I can post up a list and if you want I can tell you about some of the bands and hopefully see where I'm coming from. The only CDs it topped that I heard was the awful Daft Punk and horrendous Weezer.

    did you not get cornells solo album? it was fucking immense!!! its a must have!
  • I was going to say about Cornell's solo album too but when he said "almost a decade" i assumed he meant since his solo album which came out in 1997. Well at least i hope thats what he meant.....
  • Most of the people I know who are big soundgarden fans seem to like audioslave more than those who are big rage fans. I think a bit of it is because the rage fans are wanting audioslave to be more rage-like but they are more soundgarden like cause of cornell.

    I didn't listen to the whole thing since I really wasn't that big of a fan of Soundgarden in the first place, but if it is anything like that "Can't Change Me" song then I frankly don't want anything to do with it. The song he did on the MI2 soundtrack is the only other one I heard and i was pretty forgettable too.

    It's funny how much hate Audioslave gets on this board. Not by everyone but there's this select group of PJ fans. They bash any artist from PJ's era that is currently more succesful than PJ. By succesful I mean, either sells more records, plays biggger venues or gets more media attention and praise. Bands like U2, Audioslave, Foo Fighters, and the RHCP fall into this catagory. Sure these bands might not be at their peak. But they're still all very good and way better than most crap out there today. Would you rather these bands retire so Nicklback, Scott Stapp and Good Charlotte can take their places? Why all the bitterness towards them? It has to be jelousy. Does it really bother you people that much that other bands are bigger than PJ? Who cares if Audioslave sells 3 times as well as PJ? As for Audioslave I think they're good. I tend to get tired of them quickly but that doesn't mean they suck. If you don't like a song like Heavens Dead then I really wonder about your taste in music.

    Wonder all you want. The Foo Fighters are boring, I never did like The Chili Peppers (okay except for Soul To Squeeze and My Friends - those songs were KILLER), and U2 has fallen off a cliff of mediocrity. For the record, I think Pearl Jam's last two albums were terrible (although the songs sound alright live I guess, and Binaural was only half bad). I don't think I'ver heard a Pearl Jam song that wasn't at a concert in about a year. I'm dead serious. My hopes for the new album are pretty low in the first place.

    So trust me, it isn't jealousy. I genuinely think that all of those bands you mentioned are currently bad. They had some ups in the past (well, except Audioslave), but I don't care for them now. Do I really care what bad bands succeed these bad bands in the clear channel radio playlists? It can be SImple Plan or Avril Lavigne or Fall Out Boy or Green Day for all the radio I listen to.

    I can respect your point of view because you actually judge bands based on whether or not you like them. Not if they're bigger than PJ like some fans on this board. I'm talking about the fan who lists his 5 favorite bands and it's PJ and four indie bands. It's like these people have completely forgotten that PJ was once the biggest mainstream rock act in the world. Yet if PJ was to go platinum with this record these same people would be throwing parties.

    Yeah, if there are people like that, they are hella lame. People really need to look beyond the realm of Pearl Jam (and maybe even rock, too)

    Echoes, I would seriously recommend listening to "Preaching the End of the World" and "When I'm Down" from Euphoria Morning. Two of the more brilliant songs Cornell has written. You ask a lot of people on here to open their minds to some different music, which I think is fantastic. I downloaded the Destroyer album to give it a listen because of your praise of it. So do me a favor and take a listen to those two Cornell songs, and do so with an open mind. Believe me, I know the Cornell/Audioslave threads get old and can make it tough. It's a shame that most of the posters who brought diversity to the board have left. Talk Show Host annoyed the fuck out of me at times, but at least he came at music from a different angle.
    It makes much more sense to live in the present tense.
