– Audioslave – live at Hultsfred Festival, Hultsfred Sweden – June 14, 2003 – Sveriges Radio P3 –
Audioslave to get Friday up and running and heading into the weekend. Audioslave was considered a supergroup – it consisted of Chris Cornell of Soundgarden and Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk from Rage Against The Machine and were together a comparitively short period of time (2001-2007) before Chris Cornell pulled the plug.
Initially, they were considered something of a hybrid between Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine – and their first album drew lot of those comparisons. But by the time their second album was released, they had firmly established they were their own entity and involved in their own musical journey.
After a ten year absence, Audioslave reunited again and played at the Anti-Inauguration Ball on the 20th of January 2017. In what was hoped to be reforming wasn’t clear as Cornell had resumed work with Soundgarden (and it was a Soundgarden concert where Chris Cornell was last seen alive). But fate being what it is, any sort of future would be a thing of the past.
For those of you who may have missed Audioslave the first time around, here’s an opportunity to pick up what you might have missed.
Crank it up. Enjoy the weekend – stay safe – stay sane and stay curious.
If you’ve spent any time poking around social media and visiting websites the one thing that may hit you is how unique Past Daily actually is. It’s music you may not be familiar with or have forgotten about – it’s history without turning it into an “eat your vegetables” exercise – it’s people from the past; iconic and notorious who you may have read about or heard about but never actually heard what they had to say. It’s the occasional odd observation on life and living the day-to-day which may prompt you to nod or wince. One thing Past Daily is not is boring. The world is in a constant state of change and it’s good to be reminded that, very often, we’ve been on this road before and have experienced the same results.
