I just basically feel like ranting right now, my favourtie current band split up last night (Audioslave) and damn it's like breaking up with a girlfirend but worse, I followed this band before they came to be, and their music to me was like a god send, they were like the soundgarden i never got to see, so for me it was the second best thing, atleast I saw Slave live, i'd probably be more angry if i didn't. I looked at one of my guitars earlier and just got a picture in my head of it in a million pieces on the floor.

But on the otherside of the breakup it means my favourite singer will now be making more solo records and it was pretty much the vocalist which made the band for me.

Yeah anyway just an angry guy ranting :>

I hadn't heard that Audioslave broke up. :( They were excellent. To me, though, it's a fair trade if Rage Against the Machine comes back for a while. :D

Relax! I know how you feel, but as of late, I have gotten over the bands breaking up thing. From my perspective, just be glad they made it to a second album. Supergroups are notorious for being one album wonders. I am sure Cornell will be able to have more musical freedom going it alone or forming his own band. If it really is Cornell you love, if he tours on his own, it'll probably be in smaller more intimate venues and he'll include some Soundgarden and Audioslave songs. Just trying to keep you from breaking something. Getting drunk is the better choice but is a good start on your way to breaking something.

It's not easy being green.... good thing I'm purple.

actually they had 3 albums, but nonetheless, it does suck, I really didn't appreciate Tom Morello's guitar playing until recently.

de la Rocha > Cornell. Audioslave wasn't anything special compared to Rage Against the Machine.

Bank it. :wink:

Used to be, was a part of me felt like hiding.. but now it comes through. Comes through to you.

i love rage. i love soundgarden. i love audioslave. but really, audioslave was just a novelty band that went longer than usual. I saw them once, at the Electric Factory, front row, one of the coolest shows ever. esp when they busted out Seven Nation Army. great. Tom Morello is superb, and i have a feeling Rage is back for a little while

Rage's creativity died long ago :P I suppose they could jsut play more shows using old material, but Zach took forever to write songs.
