Out of Exile
Description
The follow-up to Audioslave’s self-titled 2002 debut
features the single “Be Yourself. Recorded with producer Rick Rubin, who also
helmed their debut CD. Among the other songs slated for inclusion are:
“Doesn’t Remind Me”, “Out of Exile”, “The Curse”, “1 Zero” and “Your Time Has
Come”. Interscope. 2005. 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
