So what you're saying is... it's not worth buying?

Why don't people rip on limp wristed wimpy bands like keane and death cab. LAME.

Atleast Audioslave rocks.

Toolgarden · July 2006

The only reason I don't like Audioslave is because I didn't like RATM. Hearing that cornell is making another solo album makes me VERY happy. He is one of my favorite musicians.

ps-this isn't an Audioslave love thread, so don't bash on people for saying they dont like them here.

...And Soul Asylum is releasing a new album!!

Cool more Chris Cornell.

Like someone said before, Audioslave could really use a new drummer. They wouldn't be close to the best with a new drummer, but they'd be so much less boring and so much better.

I think Audioslave just sounds monotonous... but we'll never know until we hear someone else drum for them.

Audioslave drummer = weak link

if you dont even know his name then why are you bashing him? at least know the name of whom you're trying to put down if you're too self-concious about talking about your own problems.

well, i love audioslave and just cant wait for their new album and this. great stuff.

I really dont want to even know his name, cause he sucks anyway man.

Friends don't let friends listen to shite. As far as I'm concerned, they are no better than Nickelback. Perhaps better looking, but not better musically. It's the same weak commercial dick that America's been choking on for years.

Well that is just rediculous. Just because a band gets some radio success doesn't mean they are no good. Audioslave is a very honest and genuine band made up of some extremely talented musicians. Maybe you should be more concerned with the dick your musical taste is choking on.

Brad Wilk is a crappy drummer. Happy now?

Actually Brad Wilk isn't half as bad a drummer as you are saying he is. He tends to play it safer on record, but live he shows off a lot more. Check out this version of Bulls on parade live, fast forward to about the 4:25 mark if you don't wanna listen to the whole song, he kind of goes a bit schizo at that point and it is anything but average drumming to my ears. http://www.yousendit.com/transfer.php?action=download&ufid=CAEF2EE853824267

The thing is with Brad Wilk, he has a very different style to most hard rock drummers, and in my opinion his style very much complements Timmy C's basslines and the funkier (is that even a word?) aspects of Audioslave's music.

Coming from another drummer, he is boring. And I don't need someone to do lots of fills to be considered an interesting drummer. I just find Wilk incredibly straightforward with relatively easy and uninteresting beats. Often some more simple things done in a creative way can sound incredible, but he's just uncreative to make matters worse.

...Big news, not all music has to be super-intelligent for it to be good, there are plenty of quality mainstream rock bands out there who shouldn't be dismissed just because they write catchy hooks. If you hate them so much, why not start your own anti-audioslave thread where you and all the other smug pretentious pricks can congregate and talk about how good the latest (insert pretetious, unlistenable, wanky-art rock band of your choice here) album is, and leave us to it?

I have no problem with hooks. I love the Beatles, Zeppelin, most 90's music, lots and lots of metal, jaz, hip hop...you name it. If you think something rocks, that's great. If I think something eats balls...that's great too. I did not attack you by suggesting that you eat balls, but judging by the profound lack of intelligencce in your response, it is obvious that you do in fact eat balls.

I'm sorry that intelligent music is above you. Obviously, so is reading compreshension.

nicklecrap better than audioslave...

whats wrong with you?

I did not say that Nickleback was better. I said that Audioslave is no better. There is a difference.

As for the difference of opinion on this band, the people who dislike Audioslave get mighty tired of it too. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.

I didn't say that they weren't good because they've had commercial success. I simply said that they are no good. If you judge good by commercial success, than toilet paper is also good, because it is a very successful product.

I'm talking about artistic merit. I'm talking about making a statement that stands out in a time when it wouldn't take much. People go nuts for bands like Audioslave, Velvet Revolver, Nickleback, Creed...etc...when the truth is that 10 years ago, they wouldn't have stood a chance against the average bands of the day.

What makes me ill is that you all know it, and accept it.

Pearl Jam and toast · July 2006

Audioslave is so far above the bands you've been comparing them too..

both in musicianship and integrity.

So you don't like them.. big deal. But the band is NOT in the same league as people like nickelback and velvet revolver. So much so that it's actually offensive that you draw the comparison.
