Review Of "Audioslave"

Bill Murphy · #1 11-19-2002, 10:33 PM

Sounds just like latter day SG. RATM fans will hate it. It's pretty good, off one listen, although draggy both in spots and overall length. Unf'lly, there didn't appear to be one instantly memorable/hummable song or riff; sad when you consider each SG album had at least 3 or 4 that leapt out at ya immed'ly.

Buy it if yer a hardcore SG or Tom Morello fan, get Badmotorfinger, Superunknown, RATM I, & Renegades otherwise, if you're unfamiliar with either band previously and are curious.

Well damn, I never heard of a single one of those people (bands?) you mentioned.

Feelin' a little old just now. [img]/forums/images/icons/frown.gif[/img] Think I'll go put on an old George Strait album... or maybe George Jones...

heard Dave Navarro was playing stud one time when i was at the Commerce. never got to check it out.

i've only heard the Cochise song from the radio. its not bad. i dug SG (especially Cornell's voice) and RATM (though they got repetitive after a while. and they ripped off of everyone a surprising amount for being such an original band).
