They don't really compliment themselves with Cornell's voice, least I think.

Lana
I'd disagree, I think they go together amazingly.

This sucks. Damnit sad

Get ready for more rumors about Rage reuniting for good because of this.

You ever heard his track "Sunshower" off of the Great Expectations soundtrack? The guy can make grown men cry. He'll do fine.

Rage makes my body shake audioslave makes my head ache

Why are all these secret Audioslave haters coming out of their collective closet and dissing the band?

I thought they were a great band. One of my favorites.

This sucks!

Arctic
Wow that is lame, they were one of my favorites. Oh well, time to listen to their records.

His voice is absolutely amazing, he's definitely one of my favorite singers.

I was admittedly skeptical of them at first, because I'm such a big fan of RATM, but Audioslave definitely became a favorite of mine quickly.

Ya Krunk'd Floo
Oh, man...This sucks elephant testicles. Audioslave are one of my favorite bands; I've loved every single one of their albums.

Tptmanno1
This really does kinda suck...
They produced some good music, their first two albums were a bit flawed, but Revalations was amazing.
Oh well. I guess we have to move on.

RedAlertv2
I loved the sheer energy of the first album. I also loved how consistently smooth Out of Exile was. Revelations was good, but I prefer either of the previous albums.

manorastroman
audioslave? hey...man, hey...they sucked. yeah--they sucked big time. shhhhhh, you're embarassing yourself. they sucked.

Euphoria Morning is better than every Audioslave album.

Do you really think so? I find Euphoria Morning to be lacking in the spark and energy that the Audioslave albums have in abundance. I appreciate that it's made in a different style, but it still seems lacking to me.

Cochise, Show Me How To Live, What Are You, Shadow Of The Sun, I Am The Highway, Be Yourself, Doesn't Remind Me, Man Or Animal, Dandelion, Revelations, Until We Fall, Shape Of Things To Come, Wide Awake, Moth...

These are the songs that rock me all day long.

Arctic
Oh yeah they do. Also Your Time Has Come, Like A Stone....yeah they rocked but oh well we just have to move on...

All I can say about Rage reuniting after this is that they'd damn well better.

Sucks about Audioslave, especially since their last album marked the beginning of their existence as a truly fantastic band for me.

Yeah.

I know what you mean though. On the first few listens it seems lacking in substance, though I'm not sure why.

Ya Krunk'd Floo
I listened to it again yesterday, and what strikes me is that Cornell's voice actually seems out of place within the songs he's singing. It's like he's trying to show-off in songs that are lacking the melody to sustain it.

Or something...

Dr. Strangelove
I'm going to do the old Bill Simmons' girlfriend analogy to try to explain my feelings on this news:

This is like breaking up with a girlfriend you've known for 7 years. She was a good girl and very good in bed. You knew she wasn't going to be a negative with you but generally was never going to amaze you with anything either. She was just one of those solid all around girlfriends. Then you come to find out her hot sister, who you dated in the 90's and have always had feelings for, is coming back to live near you and is single. The sister is energetic, crazy in bed, and in a time when you feel something is missing during a rough time in your life, you know she's the missing part. And you know the your girlfriend you just broke up with will be fine on her own as she has always had a good life as a single. So while you're sad you just broke up with your solid ex girlfriend, you're really looking forward to another chance with the hot sister.

I couldn't see them getting beyond Revelations personally.

There is lots of melody, but it grows over time. I remember feeling it lacked substance at first, almost like an experimental album.

You think Soundgarden might get back together? eek!

None of them technically ever ruled it out, if I remember rightly, but Chris Cornell said he feels it's time to work on his own stuff.

I wouldn't expect to see him in another band soon.

Well, wikipedia claims that Cornell is opposed to the idea, though the joke was more about...ah, **** it, you'll figure it out.

Ya Krunk'd Floo
Firstly: Welcome back, AC. I missed you like the desert misses the rain.

Although, if the desert always had rain, then it would cease to be a desert.

Perhaps something more beautiful?

Anyway...

Why, because Audioslave split up and reality is not worth perceiving no more?


Anyways, there's good coming from that break up...it made me decide to actually listen to Audioslave (the album...not the band...though....I suppose I also listened to the band in that case) again...and you know what? Those dudes ****ing rock. I am glad I have two more albums to look forward to. Not like you, floo...who has none. Because they broke up, get it? Get it?

Ya Krunk'd Floo
Oh, dear Jesus momma! I want to be you! I want to be you!

They did rock the hizzles, though.

My favorite songs: Cochise, What You Are, Shadow Of The Sun (Holy f*ck, that's a song!), I Am The Highway, Out Of Exile, Be Yourself, Doesn't Remind Me, Dandelion, Revelations, Sound Of A Gun, Shape Of Things To Come, and Wide Awake.

F*ck it, I like every single mother-f*cking song they wrote! They were my life, my dream, my...my...my...rainbow.

*cries*

But Audioslave are a great band, so that rule only works if you're using them as the exception.

i had to listen to their album on my friends car stereo on our way home from a holiday last year and that was one and only time ive ever wanted to jump out of a moving vehicle

i liked RATM though........Soungarden not so much

Maybe your musical taste buds are simply deficient...

Audioslave was like putting curry together with ice cream
fine on their own but together ?

No...just "Angels" and Coldplay.

Audioslave is pretty ****ing sweet, I decided.

Not quite Rage who are pretty really ****ing sweet, but great too.

Oh, before I forget, Soundgarden is ****ing sweet as well.

And we're all justified.

It's like you purposely come here simply to annoy AC and some select other members.

Why exactly do you think Audioslave is a bad band? I'm curious.

Audioslave=good.

AC=moron.

Why do you continually choose to ignore and deny that you have been proven wrong so many times, and then to top it off, ignore my posts regardless of whether or not they are on topic?

You ignored my huge post in the other thread and simply said "I'm not replying to you.", because you knew I'd won, yet you continue to reply to me childishly.

You have, it's not a matter of "think".

Also, you think Robbie Williams' Angel is great.

You should live life on the edge and give the third album a try. It's really good.

There's plenty of great songs on the second album, too.
