When I let myself think about it, I still can't believe he's gone. When a Soundgarden song randomly comes on my first thought is "al-right!"
then I remember... 
Thanks! Those aren't easy songs to sing.tragabigzanda wrote:Credit where it's due: Your singer is hitting some difficult notes.EuphoriaMourning wrote:Here's a video of our full set the other night at the Chance Theater in Poughkeepsie NY:

Pretty sure we can leave the juvenile ongoings with Vicky et all in the other Cornell thread.VinylGuy wrote:yeah, i also consider their first album to be brilliant. They mixed Chris´s sound with RATM so well. Revelations is also a masterpiece, but it took me a long time to see it....they changed their sound to a more R&B approach and its very cool....i would say Out Of Exile is the one i care the least and it still has some very good moments.lecherouslittlestump wrote:That first album is brilliant. I don't know why people were/are sniffy about it. Maybe it's a bit too long, and it's more straightforward/simpler than Soundgarden, but it's still a banger. Also the last record that has those classic Cornell vocals IMO.VinylGuy wrote:I actually thought about making an Audioslave thread because of fucking vickyBammer wrote:Every time this thread is bumped I’m just thinking oh great what the fuck did Vicky do now
Out of Exile and Revelations are pretty decent but they never had the darkness or vibe of that first album. Plus Cornell's vocals took a dive.
https://www.spin.com/2010/08/soundgarde ... erunknown/Audioslave’s commercial success never really erased the fault line between Cornell and the rest of the band, and few were surprised when, amid disputes over royalties and creative decisions — Cornell has said mixers and session musicians were brought in to work on their recordings without his knowledge — he walked away in 2007 to begin another solo album.
I dunno WTF they were thinking getting rid of that original Shadow On The Sun guitar soloI went crazy for the Civilian demos when they leaked. I listened to them so much I was disappointed when the actual album dropped cause it sounded so slick in comparison.
