I am writing this through tears.
Dunno if its tears of laughter or shame.

Have a listen to the new "tunes".

He deserves a bunch of fives for this, my day is ruined.

Ground Zero Feat Timbaland - Dear jesus thats pretty bad. That sound effect in the background throughout the song makes me want to stab someone in the eye with a biro.

I left the site after that.

Long gone are the soundgarden days anyway.
I kind of liked the first audioslave album, didnt like the other two.
Didnt like his solo album either.

I quite like it, though I like Timbaland

tomED

That explains it so...

His version of billie jean is excellent, very cheesy

Creature

Oh wow that's really bad. Lol it sounds like Nsync or one of them types.

Grid.

Jeez thats horrible!! Has he lost his marbles!:eek:

Sunset V

Very bad indeed but rumour has it that Chris will be the new Velvet Revolver singer, so maybe he's just passing the time!:rolleyes:

I am a big Soundgarden fan, and I do like the first Chris Cornell album. I can't get over this tripe...

I love the first solo album too, and am a huge soundgarden fan. Audioslave I'll take or leave. But Chris has been on the slippery slope for a while now. Slippery slope to kak-land. Apparantly his wife is running the show these days.

This unfortunately proves what I've said for years - the man's vocal stylings are way too versatile for his own good.

When AudioSlave broke up, it was he was bored with the style of music, & wanted to branch out into other styles.

I mean, Gwen Stefani went from her 'No Doubt' stylings to being a pop/hiphop darling, & her solo stuff is pretty decent (I can't believe I've publically admitted that).

Talent is talent. But talent that goes off in a tangent direction for the sake of .... meeh, dunno .....

Not sure what to think of that new material from Chris - really has me left rather confuzzeled ?!?!?!?!?!?!

Nea

Very much doubt he would go to Velvet Revolver if this is the path he is taking anyway he left Audioslave to go solo.

Euphoria Morning was great, Carry On not so great but much better than this shyte.

Think he should go back on the beer and get rid of the frog!!!!

Hmmmm Chris Cornell to follow Nelly Furtado's Timbaland trail?


I would probably buy it though as I am a huge fan/mark of the man.


I agree with whoever said his versitility can go against him sometimes.

Hard to believe that 15 or so years ago he was singing grunge with SoundGarden and now this is where he is! Oh well whatever works for him i guess

Its sooo bad I'm gona have to go watch Scuzz/Kerrang until Cochise comes on ! Go to bed about 2.30am and wake up and pretend it was just a bad dream . . .:D

Oh my god. My ears! I'm going to cry!

Someone get me some mental floss, I can't believe I paused Opeth to see what this was like.

His is not about the dollars - he's said he was getting bored with rock music. it's Chris Cornell, you're never going to be rolling in the dollar bills if you're him, no matter who you have produce what for you.

To be honest I have a reasonably eclectic taste in music and like both artists but this does not sound right. His last album wasquite poor to so maybe he is simply past it.

So agree and as his Bond theme one of the best ever

Cornell to me is Soundgarden. Nothing before, nothing after. Just that one amazing band. Can't stand his solo stuff.....or Audioslave.....

So, Chris Cornell like so many other artists, has succumbed to the Midas touch of producer Timbaland.. Seems many Soundgarden and Audioslave fans are pissed off about the whole thing.

Check out the new song, Scream, and see what you think. Sell out? Interesting experimentation? I reckon it'll bring him a huge new fan base but am kinda embarrassed for him.

It's shocking that he actually did this but I like the song. Then again I'm a huge fan of both his vocals and shamefully of Timbaland's style.

hail to matt cameron..the master of drumming understatement yet brilliance.

Bit late for April fools isn't it?

JackKelly

Can't listen to it here in college, but considering the responses I'd like to register my outrage at him pulling out of Rock Werchter etc to produce this.

Saw him with Aerosmith last year and he was phenomenal so it's a shame to see him go this way.

The song Scream is not too bad. I could listen to it.

What a shocker though, didn't expect this.

Pyr0

I don't like the song at all ! What is with Timbaland and all the "oh, oh, oh" sh1t he adds in songs he's featured in ?!
