Free Music Review: Audioslave is back with a bang
Hit: 5 Stars

This album is truly fantastic. The first album really caught my interest, but I wasn't sure I liked the whole supergroup vibe I was getting, and decided to let their second album help me decide whether or not I was a fan. When I saw them live, a month before the release, I was so psyched I could barely contain myself. By this point, the first album was being played everyday.
When this album finally came out, I came home from school and and practically leapt on it, I was so excited.
I put it in the player, listened intently, and read the lyrics.
My opinion was this, and still is this:
The album doesn't have songs that immdeiately blow you away, but you tend to notice that this album is special, it just requires more listening and searching. The first thing I loved about it wa that it sounded real- it wasn't overprocessed like the first album, and showed that the guys were much more laid back than back in 2002. Secondly, after quitting smoking, Cornell sounds a million times better, and Morello sounds better than ever. On future listens, I would come to appreciate every single song, as it is a concept album musically, and the lyrics help this description of it. While some tracks, such as your time has come, feel like they've been done before (the aforementioned song has an unmistakenable resemblance to cochise and their cover version of super stupid), you come to see their differences, and appreciate the songs that sound fresh. All the songs here show that the band have matured, and will offer nothing but good things in the future.

Review of the indivual tracks:

Your Time Has Come- The second single off the album, this song feels like it was done to offer the record company something to go with. Do not judge the album strictly by this song; Audioslave have changed, and for the better, and this song was just a little blast to the past. Still a fun ride 5/5

Out Of Exile- Awesome track, should have been a single, but wasn't for unclear reasons. Look to this song for the new Audioslave at its best. 5/5

Be Yourself- The first and strongest single off of Out Of Exile, this particular version has been mixed differently from the single version, and is a bit quieter and delicate than its counterpart. A stunning track, and certainly a grand step in a new direction for Audioslave. 5/5

Doesn't Remind Me- The third single, and most recent, from the album, this song is a singalong three-chord track that seems, on first sight, to be almost too simple for Morello's guitar technique. However, songs like this make Audioslave special, because they show that Audioslave will do anything that sounds good, no matter how simplistic. Enjoyable tune, but weaker than the rest of the album IMO. 4/5

Drown Me Slowly- Anyone order Audioslave's Bulls On Parade? Here ya go. Kicking verses, even stronger chorus, and Morello-scratch/digitech solo adds to the mix to make a stunning track. Cornell's voice is particularly grand on this track. 5/5

Heaven's Dead- This song is highly underrated, and is extremely beautiful. Listen to this song, and understand why Cornell is the man for conveying emotion. Getaway Car, but loads better. 5/5

The Worm- HEAVY. This song kicks, in low B. Play it LOUD. Very LOUD. Outstanding track.

Man Or Animal- A song that feels old by the time you get to it, sort of like by the time you got to Exploder on the first record- loved it, but been there, done that. Still, quite the tune, and a super chorus. 5/5

Yesterday To Tomorrow- Not sure about this track. It's very different from anything Audioslave has ever done before, and is a realy good tune. Still not as strong as other tracks, but fantastic nonetheless. 4/5

Dandelion- This, Be Yourself, Out Of Exile and Drown Me Slowly should have been singles. Dandelion is so light, you can almost feel yourself floating while listening to it. Cornell's voice is soooooo delicate here, and Morello's guitar is lazy with summertime bliss. Just a great song. 5/5

#1 Zero- Really different for Audioslave, but unlike the sometimes sketchy Yesterday to Tomorrow, this song really gives it to you. Almost sounds like a crescendo-ing revenge song, and is creepy in a way. Look out for this as the surprise song off of the album. 5/5

The Curse- Best title, but by the time this track comes, so many other songs have totally outclassed it, that it appears to be almost dry. The solo is the best on the album, but even that won't save you from feeling doubtful about this track. Gotta give it like it is...5/5. That's right, the track takes a while to grab ya, but once you start singing along, you're in for a treat. Don't give up on the last track, its great.

Anyhow, buy the album, its ten bucks at most places, and is a steal for such a price. Really a fun album; a flat-out rock album at its best.

Out of Exile Poster

Japanese only SHM-CD (Super High Material CD - playable on all CD players) pressing. Universal. 2008.
In what was widely predicted to be a short-lived supergroup/side-project, Audioslave has instead gratifyingly yielded a bonafide band. The follow-up to their promising, if not quite artistically congealed '02 debut finds singer/songwriter Chris Cornell contributing a slate of songs that would have done his former Soundgarden proud, while guitarist Tom Morello and his former Rage Against the Machine bandmates cast them in a focused rhythmic groove that suggests that the old school can still yield a timely lesson or two. Cornell's best songs may still lurk in the shadows (the funeral hypno-blues of "Heaven's Dead," the martial metal of antiwar opener "Your Time Has Come," "The Worm" as anthem for self-loathing), yet they're now brightened with such surprisingly sunny fare as "Dandelion," "Doesn't Remind Me"'s charged, existentialist daydream and even a hook-rich, dangerously optimistic back-to-the-future power ballad in "Be Yourself." Morello's work on the title track and elsewhere is a study in taste and less-is-more efficiency, a telling hint of how forcefully these iconic '90s stars have sublimated their egos as their new music has blossomed; who said there are no second acts in American (rock) lives? --Jerry McCulley
