A great second album--maybe better than the debut May 21, 2008 Audioslave's second record 'Out Of Exile' is an instant classic. Released in 2005 on the Interscope label, 'Out Of Exile' is musically better than their debut. Chris Cornell's vocals are outstanding, and Tom Morello's guitars are worth the price of the album alone.
Although many people prefer their self-titled debut over 'Exile,' I am not one of those people. Songs like 'Doesn't Remind Me,' 'Be Yourself' and 'Out Of Exile' are among the band's finest.
I never understood why songs like 'Dandelion' never got played on the radio that much. It's a great alternative song, and traces of Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine show throughout the song.
Overall, this is highly recommended to anybody who wants to hear some classic alternative. An extraordinary record that is well worth owning.
Highly recommended. ENJOY!!!
A Great Contribution to the Music World May 04, 2008 I've been a fan of Singer Chris Cornell since I first heard his music with Soundgarden in the early '90's. He has a very distinctive voice you can't mistake for anyone but him. Audioslave is a different style of band than Soundgarden, creating a more commercial, straightforward style of rock. The other members of Audioslave are Tom Morello (guitar), Tim Commerford (bass) and Brad Wilk (drums) all from the well know Rage Against The Machine.
The album is well produced, featuring some excellent songs,like "Doesn't Remind Me", "Be Yourself" and "Your Time Has Come", which is the strong opening track. "Doesn't Remind Me" starts out with a lightly strummed guitar sound to be joined with Cornell's lovely vocals and a pounding bass. The title track "Out of Exile" is a very dramatic mid-tempo rock song with great drum work. Sure the album like most has it's down time with songs that are slight boring but overall Audioslave are a great contribution to the music world.
Audioslave CD Dec 23, 2007 Excellent CD. Some of Audioslave's best music is on this album. Highly recommend! Received in perfect condition, and quick and easy transaction.
Out of Energy! Oct 05, 2007 Audioslave gave soundgarden and rage against the machines fans something to cheer about with their debut. Now they release their sophomore album OUT OF EXILE. The first single Be Yourself is a slow moving but great song. Meanwhile the rest of the album falls flat for the most part.
It opens with the rocker Your time is come which reminds one of the first single from Audioslave's first album. The 2nd track, out of exile, which the album is named after is a pretty good song, but after the 3 aforementioned songs the album is just not that good. There isn't enough originality only the continuation of the same sound throughout. It just lacks any really great songs and if Audioslave continues to release albums (which means they need to release something better than this), this one could be the one overlooked and least listened to by most fans. I was highly anticipating this album but my anticipation turned out to be poorly placed.
like any of you know better!!!! Aug 23, 2007 for me, the album is great, it entertains me, that is what I want. You know what you like, don't listen to every Rolling Stone wanna-be that decides he/she knows the soul of a band, and the sound YOU are looking for. Listen for yourself and decide for yourself. These spoon feeder reviews (probably plagiarized) are ridiculous at best. Its the best ever, its the worst ever, its great, it sucks, get a life.
As for me, I am again entertained by the audioslave albums, all of them, 5 stars.
