Well, I hope all you Audioslave haters are happy. Your incessant insults and all-around negativity has finally resulted in Chris Cornell leaving the band, according to Blabbermouth:

    I posted a while ago that there was a rumor going around the Audioslave are breaking up and that Rage might reunite. I got blasted for it. I feel vindicated. :)

    what a bummer. I love Audioslave. I never got to see them live. Sad Thursday.

    I seriously can't believe it either myself. I had heard all the rumours but never actually thought..*sigh* Truly a loss! I mean hell, they were the whole reason why I ever discovered rock music and Pearl Jam and all the great musicians that enlightened my passion in the first place! As much as I am so excited for the Rage reunion and Chris solo tour and album, I know this will be a twinge of heartbreak. RIP<333 :(

    As much as I liked Audioslave and I'm horribly sad to hear that Cornell has gone..haven't gotten the chance to see these boys live, like I would have hoped to...

    ....I loved Rage even more!! Let's hope that the 1 show that Rage has in April or whatever the date is...will turn into another album and a whole new tour! Viva la Rage!

    I knew you'd mourn this loss with me. :( I still refuse to fully believe it until I see something official. It doesnt look good though.
    RIP indeed<333

    Thats probably what Cornell is afraid of. Instead of him being the odd man out if Rage decides to reunite for the long term, he'll quit first in order to preserve his ego. He made a lot of money pumping out a crappy Audioslave album every year and it wasn't going to last forever. Thats one of the reasons I disliked them so much. They had absolutely no integrity, and it was all about getting paid.

    That official enough for you? Yeah...it is definately a pity, but....maybe this will start back up something with Rage for more than one show...maybe a new album? Look on the bright side! Audioslave was fucking awesome, but they were no RATM.
  • ewester032687ewester032687 Posts: 149
    I like audioslave, but i like RATM more. So if this leads to a real reunion with a full tour, it'd be well worth it in my opinion

    It looks like I'm in the minority in this thread I enjoyed Audiosalve immensely...and feel fortunate to have seen them play live in 05 when they were playing both Soundgarden and Rage songs.

    *sigh* Yes. I know. I guess I'm just not gonna fully let it sink in until I see it on their website or something. Even so I still feel this drop in my stomach reading these things. I'm know deep down it's true but still. I'm a huge fan in shock. That's all.

    And I know they were no RAGE. :p They were certainly no SOUNDGARDEN!!!!!!! But that's ok. They werent trying to be either and I really loved the mixture of sounds. Again, this news does sadden me very much but I'm also excited about what lies ahead for the guys...especially the mighty CORNELL. :)

  • mole1985mole1985 Posts: 1,119
    Yeah but RAGE broke up for a reason. How long before they break up again? 1? 2 albums? I prefered Audioslave to RAGE, they had more musical direction and diversity then RAGE but RAGE are still great. Thank god i saw Audioslave while i had the chance, that was an unbeleivable gig. On the bright side it looks like Cornell might do a big tour on his solo album.

    I am not sure if he is redeemable at this point... I really hated Audioslave.

    Would be nice but the Billboard article made that sound very unlikely.
