Oct 25, 2010Half of the cuts are interesting and the other half are just bad versions of the interesting ones. Listening to this from start to finish is a real chore and, basically, it's just too draining for it to ever be an enjoyable record.

mandyfMay 5, 2006Chris cornell has an amzing voice and is so talented playing guitar. This band is for real and one of the best considering all the fake rock bands around now

TonyDJan 31, 2005Did I just fall asleep and wake up in the late 70s? This is so reminiscent of bands like Rainbow & Ian Gillan that I felt like crying. I predict a thankfully short career.

DaveKNov 28, 2002Well done critics. Once again you have totally missed the mark. Everyone understands that this is not RATM or Soundgarden and that Cornell is no de la Rocha so of course it'll sound different. I never followed Soundgarden but I loved RATM. While I miss the political trashing, Cornell's wailing works well for the evolved band. Album rocks

TheZDec 1, 2002Chris Cornell is the best rock singer in the business right now, and has been ever since Soundgarden. When he fronts a band as good as Rage's, you know that it has to be a masterpiece.

NseENov 5, 2003Great cd full of great songs like the razor sharp 'Like a stone', 'What you are', 'I am a highway', 'Hypnotize' (Which does just that), and the epic 'Getaway car' with Chris Cornell's forlorn voice bleeding throughout. Downside, a couple of ok tracks and songs tend to go on for too long and you feel it.

RonBFeb 15, 2003fantastic Great rock pure talent the mixture of both bands is oustanding a pure classic

GothicBabeMar 20, 2003Unbelievable Stuff... This album is just amazing. The combination of Rage Against the Machine's inspirational music and Cornell's remarkable voice is SO refreshing. This album will be remembered as one of the "great ones". *** Orlie ***

tonyr.Jul 18, 2003Critics are just that. They screwed up on Zeppelin and now they are screwing up on Audioslave. Great band. The album does take a couple of listens to grow on you, once it does you cant get it off. Thanks to Audioslave for bringing back what rock was meant to sound like.

JesseJul 19, 2004Cornell has the best voice in rock, and Tom Morrello does things with the guitar others can only dream about

MarcSJul 5, 2004An absolute masterpiece. This is an album that may take you a while to absorb its full weight; but when it finally hits you, you will feel every song. Chris Cornell's unique voice is perfectly matched with Tom Morello's grooves and anti-guitar hero antics. Don't listen to the critics, if you even remotely liked Rage Against the Machine or Soundgarden pick up this album.

ayushDec 10, 2005Loved the album... but hey i really had no clue of Soundgarden. And after "superunknown"... kinda okay!

ZoranFeb 7, 2005This album is fantastic. The band show a musical maturity, which can only be achieved from years of songwriting experience. I couldn't do without Audioslave; they're one of the best rock acts in the world today. This album is simply brilliant.

BlenderThis is feel-good stuff, the sound of a rejuvenating artistic vacation. [#12, p.136]

A curious idea from its inception, pairing Soundgarden's singer with Rage's musicians promises a unique alchemy it can't entirely deliver, obscuring the latter's politics and distinct sound.
-
The result isn't a faux Rage album; rather, it's the true follow-up to Soundgarden's ''Superunknown'' that neither that band nor a solo Cornell ever managed.
