Audioslave - Cochise - Live - Late Show With David Letterman

 

[Black Mamba]

It should be (Soundgarden, Audioslave) IMO..

So sad, Soundgarden was a major portion of the soundtrack to my teenage years.

Cornell, Stailey, Weiland, Cobain.

They're all gone, man. what the actual fuck.

 

[Turin]

Fell On Black Days

Rest in piece, man.

 

[acheron_xl]

Well, shit. I adore his solo work. Even Scream.

 

[DoubleTake]

UGHHH Sleep tight Chris. R.I.P.

Tighter and Tighter

 

[Hobbestetrician]

Cornell, Stailey, Weiland, Cobain.

They're all gone, man. what the actual fuck.

Don't you fucking even think about dying, Eddie.

 

[Nanashrew]

I grew up on Soundgarden and Audioslave :<

Rest in peace

 

[HarryDemeanor]

What in the fuck.

Fuckin' hell.

R.I.P. Chris.

 

[myca77]

Damn that's unexpected. RIP

"Say hello to heaven...."

One of the best voices in rock, that man could sing.

Soundgarden, temple of the dog, audioslave, loved them all especially his solo acoustic stuff and yes even his solo pop album.

 

[irfaanator]

damn. rip

 

[KZObsessed]

What the fuck, man.

 

[Black Mamba]

Don't you fucking even think about dying, Eddie.

I was just thinking that there's pretty much just eddie and billie left from that era (in terms of the big ones).

How have I outlived them? My 13 year old self is so utterly devastated tonight...

 

[No Love]

Oh my fucking god... One of my favorite singers of all time. Never got to see him live... Wow. Fuck everything

 

[Imperial Bishop]

Damn. RIP

 

[McBradders]

 

[miserable]

What?!

RIP

 

[KOHIPEET]

Fuuuck!

 

[Acidote]

Shit. Fuck.

 

[Sojgat]

Fuck, man.

RIP

This sucks.

 

[Elvin Atombender]

Damn!

I've listened to him since Badmotorfinger came out.

 

[nelsonroyale]

RIP. I enjoyed some of Audioslaves stuff back in the day.

 

[Spookie]

Oh no.

 

[polyh3dron]

I was just thinking that there's pretty much just eddie and billie left from that era (in terms of the big ones).

How have I outlived them? My 13 year old self is so utterly devastated tonight...

Also Dexter, the other Billy, Rivers and Gavin.

I guess the last two were kinda second-wave though.

 

[FingerBang]

My life got suddenly worse. I am speechless. He will be missed.

 

[SZips]

Really heartbreaking news.

 

[DrM]

Oh god, this is tragic... I have really bad weeks already and these kind of news really put me down

 

[kimbaka]

Damn, Soundgarden was one of my favorite bands of the 90's. RIP.

Dexter got his PhD, on HIV research no less.

[GrimmGrinn]

What the what

RIP Chris

 

[nasax]

He posted something on his Twitter account like eight hrs ago, so surreal!

 

[AdequateSubject]

Extremely sad. And unexpected. Rest in peace.

Oddly, I randomly started thinking about Audioslave on my way to work just about an hour ago.

 

[Zimbardo]

well this sucks.

been a fan since first hearing 'Jesus Christ Pose' in the early 90s.

great singer ...great loss. hard to believe.

 

[Martinski43]

What the actual shit? How? Talk about out of the blue?!

 

[theaface]

:'(

52, too soonman.

 

[noomi]

God damnit. Fuck!

 

[ntropy]

damn t.t

 

[Grassclipper]

Oh shit, rest in peace!

 

[sajj316]

This sucks. Too young. RIP.

 

[SkyMasterson]

Awful. What the hell from?

His voice was so beautiful.

 

[Fallout-NL]

Holy fuck, what?

That's just awful.

 

[Black Mamba]

Also Dexter, Rivers and Gavin.

I guess the last two were kinda second-wave though.

Yeah, I'd consider the other two the second wave (and Bush was never as big). But I forgot about Dexter for sure.

Superunknown was the very first album I ever bought. I could recite it front to back in my formative years.

I had everything of theirs. Cornell was GOAT to me then. It really is so shocking.

And let's not forget Temple of the Dog!

Or the older Soundgarden stuff. Jesus Christ Pose. Outshined (one of my faves).

Cornell was a truly transcendent talent. Amazing voice. Amazing lyricist. Soundgarden was so damn influential in the late 80s and 90s. Part of the last big specific music wave in rock (imo).

 

[30yearsofhurt]

Totally shocked.
Big fan of Chris.
RIP

 

[nin1000]

What the actual fuck ! R.I.P

 

[Metalmarc]

[wanderingprostheyltite]

Absolutely terrible. One of my favorite singers. RIP.

 

[PixelPeZ]

Fuck - I just listened to his version of Billie Jean a couple of hours ago RIP, one of the best rock singers of all time.

Fell On Black Days

Rest in piece, man.

This is the song. I'll be listening to it for a while. But I already do that so...

 

[Temp_User]

Unbelievable! RIP.

 

[Xun]

What the fuck.

R.I.P. Chris

What a phenomenal singer.
