Heard today that Rage Against the Machine is getting back together!!! Thank God. Now maybe they’ll put an end to this retarded Audioslave bullshit! Just don’t know if they’re touring or if they are going to put out a new album too! Wish they wouldv’e done this sooner, that way they King Bush II years would’ve been a little easier to stomach!

Yes! Back to business for Zach and Co. and no more pop songs with Cornell. With the end of the Bush era coming and all the shit going on on the planet it will make a great political/social album.
What’s so wrong with Audioslave?

It’s just boring. it’s uninspired, PLus I’m not a fan of Cornell’s voice.

They’re only getting together for one show…
Which means that Audioslave isnt quite over yet…
I am a fan of Cornell’s voice in Soudngarden but there is something wrong with it in Audioslave. He either abused his vocal chords to the point that he lost his voice or he is doing it on purpose… Either way, his voice in Audioslave leaves a lot to be desired.
Cornell is doing a tour and solo album which should be out soon, which COULD leave RATM open for a couple more shows hopefully, but for now they are just doing the one. Believe it or not Cornell is doing a cover of Billie Jean.

Is the venue announced yet? Is there a date announced yet? All I heard was the DJ say “Rage Agianst the Machine back together again, So maybe there is hope for the Smashing Pumpkins reunion now as well”
No other details were given

Coachella.
Smashing Pumpkins are reunited and recording, but only Billy and the drummer are the original members left.
I think the Smashing Pumpkins “reunion” is funny. I mean, Chamberlain has contributed to all of Corgan’s shit since SP broke up anyway, right? So what’s the difference now?
RATM?
After many years of exstensive research scientists have finally come up with the following equation:
Rage Against The Machine = shit
Zach de la Rocha = self righteous hissy fit throwing/ half breed/ black John Lennon
Avoid for the sake of tomorrows children please.
What’s that make Audioslave then?
while they aren’t my fav band… i do respect that they are original and exciting. and the fact that no one else plays guitar like Tom Morello. no one. i’m not saying he’s the best guitar player - but he’s defiantly one of the most original.
True story:
Back in 2005 I was working nites PT at F.Y.E. for extra $. One night Chris Cornell walked in and started browsing the store. Apparently it was Audioslave’s day-off in Ohio or something. Seemed like a decent enough chap. I don’t get starstruck so I didn’t ask him anything or identify himin front of a store full of people ( we were a gehtto mall - so we only had shorties and bruthas in da sto at de time anywayz). If memory serves Chris didn’t buy any music but he did buy Madden Football, a Metal Gear sequel, and Jeopardy for his hand held playstation. Timmy C came in later and started asking me for video game recommendations which i am absolutley worthless at doing. Seemed ok too.
The song Cornell did for the new Bond flick t’aint that bad. Better than the one Garbage turned in a couple years back. Phew! That one stunk…
So? Who cares?
after very little research (not much was needed) I’ve come up with the equation

Nobody likes you Alex P. Keaton. At least try to fit in.

I’m not going to gratify the author of this thread with the obligatory ‘<insert crappy band name here>’ flame and so initiate an all out war (…though you can pretty much safely assume I hate them to pieces). But I think it speaks volumes that a Whitehouse new recording thread gets shat on by a thread dedicated to the whereabouts of a bunch of ho-hum blue collar schmucks who decided to form a band one day and …hmmm… got lucky.
Whatever.
p.s I hear Audioslave are breaking up because Chris ‘look at me doing my best Robert Plant impersonation with no shirt on’ Cornell is marrying himself.

White house thread? is that base jealousy your displaying here? (who freaking cares how many people respond to any one given post?!?!) Damn, Poor Peligro. You just can’t catch a break! I feel your pain. I used to be a prol too. it sucks, but one day you will gain some humility and not be such the ass. good luck with yourself.

No, it aint jealousy. I’m just astounded. It boggles the mind that such mediocrity begets such undivided loyalty. I don’t think I’ve been so bored by such a ‘tour de force’ since … Korn (!!!). But like I said, whatever.
I’m glad they float yr boat, grmpy, I really am. You confirm everything I’ve ever suspected about the RATM fanbase.

I refer to my earlier post… learn some humility. Who said this thread was loyalty? so more people have something to say about my thread than yours, SO WHAT? Glad your Bored (I GUESS) it just boggles the mind why you feel the need to tell everyone about it… … … But, whatever… I guess.
HEY EVERYBODY, EVERYBODY, EVERYBODY COME LISTEN, PELIGRO IS BORED & PRETENTIOUS. BIG NEWS!!! SPREAD IT AROUND…
you’re not the authority on mediocrity. get over it and learn some humility.

The above was a stupid comment (sorry if this is a day late and a dollar short). But not to be a dick, but Rage Against the Machine was one of the most important acts of the 90s. Pardon them for actually trying to accomplish something other than huge record sales with their music.
Calling Zach a black John Lennon is actually a compliment to his ability and importance as a muscian and totally discredits your two previous shots at his ethnicity and attitude. Next to Chuck D, there are very few vocalists whom are this important to a generation, and their absence from the music scene has certainly been felt. Get a clue next time before you say something stupid.
never liked RATM but Tom is awesome & Darkness I did enjoy off of the Crow soundtrack.
