    Why do I keep listening to these? :( Scream sounds like the continuation of the "good" part of Long Gone... and it sounds like it just turns right back into gener'n'b pretty much straight away.

    Scream and Never far away, does anybody know where I can hear more of those songs? They're not very revealing.

    He probably did write all the lyrics, but gave up most of the music to Timbaland and his people.

    it says right in the article mentioned above that a few of the songs were penned by others... so he clearly didnt write ALL the lyrics... even if he just outsourced the music writing process, thats still pathetic... if he wants to be a solo artist he should be involved in the whole thing... this is the guy that wrote some of the greatest songs of the 90's musically AND lyrically... i know hes capable of it

    i dont know why im still following this album so closely... guess im still hoping for some redeeming songs

    Didn't he say that was the whole point of him going solo? To have control over the whole thing?

    Where are you seeing that someone else wrote lyrics for it? What I saw said that someone wrote songs on the album, probably just the music. Cornell had to be involved in most or all lyrics and melodies.

    "The Clutch also lend their skills having penned the tracks "Part Of Me" and "Long Gone.""

    i take the term "penned" to mean wrote the lyrics... but i guess thats a matter of interpretation

    Did you guys get a chance to listen to the whole interview on that link I provided? It is interesting in parts. I like when he talks about the way he used to treat producers in Soundgarden....he said him and the boys never really used them, the producer was just there to make sure they "behaved" themselves, so to speak. He notes that it actually wasn't until the first Audioslave record where he started listening to what the producer had to offer. To me, this album sounds almost entirely producer (Timbaland) driven, which is a fucking shame (and he may or may not even be writing his own lyrics now). I think he should try doing things his own way, the way he did in SG, it seemed to work well for him.....maybe he could even try producing/co-producing his own album again.

    He also mentions that he got the idea to work with Timbaland from his brother-in-law who owns a night club or some shit. I had a feeling this idea stemmed from....umm...other influences, but I still blame Chris for putting his name to utter shit like this. And I must reiterate that I was a supporter of Carry On, while it was a weak album, it appears it will beat this new one to bloody hell.

    The whole thing is a complete fucking shambles, it really is, and this is coming from an absolutely massive Cornell fan. Carry On was certainly weak but still ok, I had no idea however that he would continue the road into this... it's a sickening sell-out of mega proportions.

    A sell out is someone who goes against their beliefs/values for money. I dont recall Cornell ever saying he wasn't going to do an R n B album so i dont think we can call someone a sell out for trying something new.
