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

Last album as Audioslave. Chris Cornell's voice was so distinctive on every song. "Doesn't Remind Me", "Curse", and "Be Yourself" are my favorite cuts from the album but the whole album was good.
Wow, what a killer rock album. I was never all that into Soundgarden or Rage Against The Machine, I have always liked what I have heard from Audioslave, but this is the first album that I have picked up. This is top notch stuff all the way through. The songwriting is strong throughout. The vocals are pristine. The guitar playing is constantly creative and at times very innovative. The rhythm section is solid as a rock and there are some killer bass and drums parts to be found throughout. The album spawned two hit singles "Be Yourself" and "Doesn't Remind Me" both of which are great tunes. The opener "Your Time Has Come" is a great high energy to start the album with. More great rock is to be found with "Man Or Animal" and the title track. The band does a great job with ballads to with "Heaven's Dead" being a highlight. The band even does a blues number with "#1 Zero". Cornell sings in a blues style that fans of his work are probably not used to, but the guy just wails on this tune. If he ever wanted to move into a more bluesy direction I think he could be very successful at it. This album to me has more in common with old Soundgarden than it does Rage. There is no hop hop or rap to be found here, but just straight ahead rock played with intensity and power. This is a great album!
I have been meaning to add this c.d. to my collection and after the untimely passing of the late-great chris cornell , I thought it might be in short supply. I have been a life-long fan of chris and feel like I have a death in my family which comes from the loss of a loved one. I was lucky to see chris live on his higher-truth tour near my home in the small state theatre on a Monday night. in this small hall it was like chris had come full-circle and was visiting his roots! what a great show! put on by T.C. and wdha! he will always be sadly missed and remembered for the great gift of his voice for his fellow man.we are sadly diminished!! thanks to the folks out in Oregon who supplied the c.d. they wrapped and packaged the shipment with great care and it arrived 2 days early. thanks to all!!
30 months ago, the three members of Rage Against the Machine that were not Zach de la Rocha teamed up with former Soundgarden singer Chris Cornell, and released a wonderful, self-titled debut. It's surprising that this debut was a great one, but it's even more surprising, to me, that Audioslave have stuck around long enough to release a sophomore album.
At a critical (and often tricky) time in a band's career, Audioslave have pulled through and released "Out of Exile," and album which is very solid. Some critics say it sounds too much like Soundgarden, but I disagree; I think Audioslave have their own sound-one which is very unique. I didn't realize it earlier in his career, because I'm not a big Soundgarden fan, but I know now that Audioslave also have a really good singer. It's hard not to notice that, as he croons, mewls, hums, and sings cleanly, that his voice is very tuneful and that he can carry a melody about as well as any singer.
"Your Time Has Come" has a groovey opening riff which is kind of similar to that of the previous Audioslave tune, "Cochise." This song's verses flow well into the choruses, which are very catchy. "Out of Exile" has beeping guitars and gentle singing in the verses. The choruses are a little bit heavier (which is typical with this album), and a nice (albeit fairly short) guitar solo is included near the end. "Be Yourself" begins with some light guitar strumming, but then it turns to a catchy, dwindling/twinkling guitar noise. Chris' voice remains restrained throughout this song, which might be the catchiest song on the album, and it also has a good, wah-wah guitar solo. "Doesn't Remind Me" is a surprise choice for the third single. It has more catchy strumming and a lightly thumping drum beat, but it doesn't have anything that makes it really radio ready. It does have a great guitar solo, however; a solo which might be the album's best. "Drown Me Slowly" is a bit heavier than its previous songs, with some crunchy riffs and a guitar solo which vaguely reminds me of the RATM classic "Bulls on Parade." "Heaven's Dead" has more good crooning my Chris, but, musically, this song is nothing new. It's more of the same guitar strumming and drum beats. Fortunately, this song's beat does gain a bit of momentum. "The Worm" has mostly spacey guitar noise. The most memorable part of this song, though, is the chorus, when it jumps in volume and Chris raises his voice to a semi-shout. "Man or Animal" has fast, stop-start riffs, fast drumming, and a small, beeping guitar solo. "Yesterday To Tomorrow" has guitar noise and singing in the verses, making this song sort of remind me of "Like a Stone." This song's chorus, however, has spacey, echoing vocals. "Dandelion" is musically nothing different from any of the other tracks. It begins with a humming bass line and some guitar strumming which turn to crunchy riffs. Fortunately, the song's chorus is very catchy; Chris sings "hooo" melodically. "#1 Zero" has spacey, echoing guitar strings and more good singing. I enjoy this song, though, because I like how Chris raises his voice in the middle of a word. I also appreciate the two-part, 20 second guitar solo. Finally, "The Curse" is kind of forgettable. It's about all the same pace, and nothing really stands out to the listener.
"Out of Exile" doesn't quite detonate like Audioslave's debut. It may be because this album doesn't have any songs like "Set It Off," or it may be because Tom doesn't get as many opportunities to wail and rock profusely, or it could be that Chris doesn't stretch his pipes as much. But, for whatever reason, this album isn't quite as explosive.
Fortunately, this album's pros outweigh its cons. This is still a good record, and I recommend it to everybody, especially those of you who liked Audioslave's first album. "Out of Exile" is probably 2005's best alt metal/rock album. And, with this album, it's safe for me to say that Audioslave are probably one of the best rock bands of the new millennium, and they are definitely one of the most surprising.
I just bought this CD and listened to the entire thing a couple times. This album surpasses Audioslave's first, and in my opinion by a wide margin. The riffs seem to be heavier, the songs more passionate, and overall the music seems to flow from one track to the next. The album's title is "Out of Exile" but Tom Morello should be kicked out of the band and be put into exile. While his influence seems to be less on this album than on the first, his screeching riffs get old quickly. Cornell seems to have had a bigger hand in this album and many of the songs remind me of Soundgarden. I didn't skip through tracks at all, which I usually do with every other CD, including Audioslave's first. While "rating" art is a purely subjective affair, this is an excellent album and I am glad to own it now.
You wanna rock out this is great. As usual unbelievable music and lyrics.Mr. Morello, you are not of this earth,one of the top three guitarist of all time. Tim Commerford excellent bass, backing vocals and unique tats. Brad Wilk great, great percussion. As for The late great Chris Cornell, I can barley talk about him without tearing up. What a talented man he was, no better vocalist/lyricist ever.......EVER !
Here's the thing with Audioslave IMO. They epitomize technical professionalism. 2 guitarists and a drummer with impeccable talent and Chris Cornell. The thing is, "they're not Soundgarden." The music is great and listenable, but I respect it more than I remember any of it. I recommend getting all 3 of their albums as pieces of essential music history (hence the 5 stars.) Your favourite tracks will make a great driving compilation.
