The Offical Audioslave hype thread

No La Parka, you're right on. Listened to it at the record store the other day, and it's one of the worst albums I've ever heard. Cornell's vocals sound nice, but the lyrics are totally inane, and the Rage boys are playing totally without passion. Somehow the musicians from Rage have managed to make themselves sound flat, soft-edged, and uninspired.

 

Really, really awful. Pitchfork's rating of a 1.7 out of 10 hits the mark pretty much right on.

"No, they didnt break up. I dont know what the fuck that dude was talking about.."

 

they broke up and then got back together, hello mcfly

 

from entertainment weekly:

ROCK SOLID? Before the release of their first album, Audioslave have managed to break up and get back together

 

 

''Hey, you got your Soundgarden in my Rage!'' That's a likely reaction to ''Cochise,'' the first single from Audioslave -- the new band that transplants former Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell onto a Zack de la Rocha-less Rage Against the Machine. The song's melodically howled vocals and Zeppelin-cum-hip-hop groove are each deeply familiar to fans of those two bands, but are being heard together for the very first time.

 

With the single just out and a video on the way, Audioslave's self-titled album hits stores Nov. 19, about a year and a half after Cornell first hooked up with Rage (who lost de la Rocha to a solo career in mid-2000). In the interim, they've already managed to break up at least once, canceling plans to headline this summer's Ozzfest. But now that Audioslave are together again, will their garden grow or will the machine break down? Radio programmers and other industry experts say the signs are good, but there may be some pitfalls along the way.
