This sucks. I don't get it -- all these formerly rock bands (see Velvet Revolver, which sucks in a similarly bland manner, and I think came about at about the same time) split up and use pieces of themselves to make generic alt-rock crapola. It's terribly disappointing. Bring back the rage, the gardens, the guns, and the pilots, dammit!

The only element that remains is good band naming practises.

I can't imagine Chris Cornell doing Rage stuff...

oh come now, any audioslave song but this one, so painfully pretentious...

On this record,yes he does.Not that there bad solos,its just that they sound like they were thrown into the songs without much thought.

Awww...be yourself. That's cute. Cute like stomach cancer.

Good cut--probably the best on an otherwise lackluster effort, esp. following on a pretty rockin' debut.

Words can't express how dissapointed I am with this group.

I agree, Audioslave sounds like Rage Without the Machine without ... well ... the Rage ...

*shrug*

Is it just me or does this guitarist play simple, pointless solos?

You're not the only one - I really dig these guys, and i think it's so cool that it's this whole positive vibe thing...

call me #2 but i like it too...as with rage, i had to get used to the singer, first

good to hear cornell maturing. i like this song as simple as it is. maybe the ones who dont like it are part of the fake majority? hmmmm

I loved the first album. This song sounds like leftovers from that recording session...the one that didn't quite make the cut.

I hope the rest of the album is a little better.

Audioslave showed so much potential when they released the song Cochise, but everything else I've heard (with the exception of Show Me How to Live) has been absolute watered-down pop rock.

Oh well *leaves and puts on Badmotorfinger and Battle of LA*

Awful.

Very ordinary.

hmm i like it, even if i'm the only one, i like it!

hm, i made a negative comment last time i heard this, but it may be growing on me... i'll up my rating to a 5 for now.

RIP Soundgarden. my reaction to Audioslave is vehement indifference (is that possible?). however, nothing changes the fact that Chris Cornell is smokin' hot...

good choice for a first concert

this is the music i try to avoid by listening to rp instead of mainstream radio

One could have only hoped this "supergroup" could have replicated Temple of the Dog's composite output...sometimes the chemistry just doesn't work to its full potential

I saw them live last summer and I was suprisingly disappointed. They only played songs of the album, no Rage no Soundgarden. The performance was decent but it left me wanting a lot more.

I MISS SOUNDGARDEN AND RAGE AGAINST MACHINE. I GUESS YOU NEED TO MAKE A LIVING SOMEHOW WHEN YOUR BANDS BREAK UP. LOOK AT VELVET REVOLVER.....

Poor selection from Audioslave. They have some good stuff, but not this track. Chris Cornell is way off this one, as well as the rest of the band. Where is the Rock 'n Roll?? Not here .....

Back in 88, Soundgarden was the first band I ever saw live. St. Andrew's Hall in downtown Detroit. Chris Cornell jumped off the stage and landed on my friend during the encore of Spinal Tap's "Big Bottoms". Ripped his coat. We were so proud...
Audioslave makes me want to puke.
