Strange comparrison I know, but Cornell's Scream is like Dylan's Empire Burlesque...

because just like Dylan was with that album, Chris is now following trends and sounds instead of setting them.....


I'm still amazed this is the same man who wrote most of Down On The Upside.....

    Dylan got back on track with "Oh Mercy" after a couple other "wtf" albums, 4 years later. Can Chris redeem himself after this joke?

    If Cornell writes a record like "Time Out of Mind" twelve years from now I might be able to overlook this. Once he gets over this mid-life crisis or whatever the fuck it is

    That's EXACTLY what this is, one last ditch attempt to remain relevant. The irony being that if he just got on with making music, rather than whoring himself to the fickle top 40 audience, he would still be relevant to his existing fan base.

    Kind of like Robert Plant and Rod Stewart.

    Except that Rod Stewart never managed to reclaim what he had with Faces and his early stuff.

    Don't forget that "A Night At The Opera" comparison as well

  • Oh god... in a single thread, Cornell's got Floyd and Dylan comparisons going. Even if they're hardly complimentary, his ego would still expand like a balloon at a Helium Convention.
    Smokey Robinson constantly looks like he's trying to act natural after being accused of farting.
