Larsen B Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 It was rather inevitable of course. From nme.com:"singer Chris Cornell has announced that he has quit the band.The frontman of the all-star rock group cited "irresolvable personality conflicts as well as musical differences" in a statement issued today, reports Reuters.Cornell, who once fronted popular Seattle rockers Soundgarden, plans to focus on his solo career, and will release his second solo album, 'Carry On', on May 1 in the US.His Audioslave bandmates -- guitarist Tom Morello, bassist Tim Commerford and drummer Brad Wilk -- will reunite with singer Zack de la Rocha to reform Rage Against the Machine at this year's Coachella Festival, as previously reported.Audioslave formed in 2001 and recorded three studio albums.

Swingin' Ryan Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 Surely this has got to mean a full RATM reformation is on the cards? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alkaline Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 By the way Chris Cornell's brother Pete has a band called Black Market Radio. They're not too bad actually and his voice is almost identical to Chris's.www.myspace.com/blackmarketradio Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rune Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 tom morello is going to concentrate on one of his previous bands the nightwatchman.Should be very interesting. Chris cornell was great in soundgarden but i think his solo project and audioslave sucked. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WoodyRATM Posted February 16, 2007 Report Share Posted February 16, 2007 The Nightwatchman is Morello solo. He sings on it. pretty interesting to hear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Kilgore Trout Posted February 17, 2007 Report Share Posted February 17, 2007 If only i had the money i reckon 30 each and some crisps would convince them, that Kim guy could be harder to convince but i think a selection of fresh pies from Thains would seal the deal.....

Guest DustyDeviada Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 The Nightwatchman is Morello solo. He sings on it. pretty interesting to hear.Yup, it's kind of a country thing, sounds a bit like Johnny Cash. Good, but a shame if he's going to give up playing rock guitar, because he's one of the greatest IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Diesel Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Morello - Top Player!!!Anyway, I think it's hilarious - Cornell "quitting".Quit what? the other four had fucked off back to RATM anyway.What was left to quit? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
timson Posted March 18, 2007 Report Share Posted March 18, 2007 this is quite funny, i only just found out today that they have split, and yet only yesterday someone had told me that their mate has heard the new audioslave album, unless he's talking about revelations and is a bit behind with his music haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
