All the more inexplicably I found his accession to the stadium rock supergroup Audioslave. No more surprises.
Now he is back solo at the start of this new board, and one can only say that here is a missed opportunity to establish itself at the second attempt as an exceptional singer / songwriter. The compositions including texts are very smooth fall, partly be described as cheesy. Here and there on the Cornell-typical oblique harmonic turns that point to his former class. However, this is not enough for a musician of his stature. All in all, uninspired.
Oh, he can sing also no longer so great. His voice is sometimes very hard, despite Studio situation. She meets it simply no longer. So the device daring cover of "Billy Jean" to a number unintentionally comical.
