GOOD bands like them, do NOT exist anymore...Man, When those guys REALLY put their minds to it, they were unstoppable...Easily one of the top 3 bands of the 90's.
Cornell's voice is unmatched...Sooo cool.
( Listens in mourning, thinking of the ridiculous "projects" that are being done )

Your right nothing but rain....

Sunshower...- from um that movie with Ethan Hawk and Gwenth Paltrow...The Shakespeare one...um...um./...
Anyways...THATS his BEST ...so powerful...=)

i'm all for people moving on....cancelling bands when they aren't working etc.. but WHY WHY WHY stop making music all together??
that drives me nuts....such a waste of talent!

his solo album wasn't so bad... it's only a shame he released the worst song (can't change me) as the first single... and the bonustrack where he sings the same song in french :-p That's awful!
But otherwise i really enjoyed the solo-album. It's MUCH better than down on the upside imo.
But ofcourse... it doesn't really compare to superunknown :-) I miss them too :-(
Do you think in 10 years time on some messageboard some guy will start a "i miss limp bizkit"-topic? I can hardly imagine... but is limp bizkit just crap, or am i getting too old to understand them? :-p

"Wave Goodbye" is amazing! (and musically rather different from what he's done before... beautiful), but also the lyrics to that one are very touching (it's a song about Jeff Buckley)
"Dissappearing One" is another highlight for me... such a simple and powerful song.
"Pillow of your bones" sends shivers down my spine everytime i hear it (and the music wasn't even written by chris)... a very ehm...dramatic song, dramatic in the same way as "the day i tried to live"
And finally "steel rain" is truly special aswell (there are more songs that i love, but i think 4 is a nice number to list as favorites)... it's the last song on the album (not counting the stupid bonustrack), and always leaves me a bit depressed because it's so sad (but ultimately beautiful).
so:
1. wave goodbye 2. dissapearing one 3. pillow of your bones 4. steel rain

The album with RATM is supposedly still going to be released, even though the band (chris + ratm-members) doesn't exists anymore... but last thing i read is that it WILL actually be released... let's keep our fingers crossed eh? (i know i will).
I dunno about another solo-album. It would be wonderful if he did... but maybe he just retired. Like you said, it's been a while. What a waste of talent that would be though :-/
He (chris) also helped out in putting together Jeff Buckley's postume album... altough i'm not entirely sure what he *actually* did on there... i don't think he can be heard playing any music, but he is mentioned somewhere in the liner-notes.

wonderful >:-)
The sooner fred durst dissapears from the music-scene forever, the better!
It has been along time though since a new band stood up that really got me excited :-/ Not as excited as new bands in the 90's have made anyway.
The best 2002-equivalent of really great 90's bands like soundgarden and smashing pumpkins is probably...eh... Muse? I guess. They're hugely succesful, and i would give them much more respect than i would limp bizkit... but still... when compared to soundgarden or the smashing pumpkins or early pearl jam... Muse just don't compare

I dunno muse...his voice is highly annoying. It's sad though, there are no more good bands. Like most people here, I hate lyrics, I can never relate them, they mean shit (there are a few exceptions though)...hoever, chris cornell wrote some cool ass lyrics :)
'I woke the same as any other day except a voice was in my head. It said seize the day, pull the trigger drop the blade and watch the rolling heads'
No one writes good lyrics anymore. Speakin of good lyrics...if anyone can tell me what this is from, I'll be very impressed:
"What if your brain, unexpectedly and suddenly, picked out things to flip around
and view a lot differently? What if blue sky, all of a sudden turned a purple hue?
We would shit a brick the size of all of it... what if? What if I was just daydreaming? What if I lived in a pear?
What if my watch read 4:20 every hour, every day? You can bet your dollar I'd be happy! I forgot to remember; I forgot to remember my pain. Take me to your leader or die by the fly guy!
I forgot to remember my...PAIN! My pain! Forgot to inject my...cocaine! Forgot to apply my...rogaine! Forgot to remember...my pain! I never think, I never thought, oh maybe I'm insane!
I think I like being way the fuck out of my brain! I forgot to remember; I forgot to remember my pain. Take me to your leader or die by the fly guy! "
I doubt it anyway. Enough. I'm gettin too excited over somethin no one cares about.

Oooh, I used to LOVE Soundgarden. They were my faves in grade 9, along with the almighty Metallica.
In their place in the alt rock niche, we now have Nickelback and Creed. Yippee. Fuck them.

i didn't actually mean i like Muse
But i just think they may be one of the few "sincere" bands out there today... not in it for the money like Limp Bizkit etc. That muse-singer seems like a genuine tortured artist ;-)
So out of all the popular rockbands-around these days... i probably like them the best... but i still can't listen to any of their entire albums without getting bored :-/
We desperately need someone like kurt cobain to stand up again and start something new and exciting.
And until that day... i still have all my old soundgarden/nirvana/stp & pearl jam albums :-D
Think i'm gonna listen to temple of the dog now, thanks for reminding me of that one woofer :-)

audioslave is terrible.
Chris Cornell's voice has always been dangerously on the edge of becoming Full Blown Corny Metal Voice and in that band he plummets into the depths.
