Audioslave was formed after Zack de la Rocha left Rage Against the Machine and the remaining members were searching for another vocalist. Producer and friend Rick Rubin suggested that they should contact Chris Cornell. Boy that was smart!
Cornell was in the writing process of a second solo album, but decided to shelve that and pursue the opportunity to work with Tom Morello, Tim Commerford and Brad Wilk when they approached him. Morello described Cornell: "He stepped to the microphone and sang the song and I couldn't believe it. It didn't just sound good. It didn't sound great. It sounded transcendent. And... when there is an irreplaceable chemistry from the first moment, you can't deny it." The foursome wrote 21 songs during 19 days of rehearsal and began working in the studio in late May 2001.
They are one of the greatest bands ever brought together. Here's a tune I truly love called, Shadow On The Sun:

Chris Cornell is Showing Me How To Live
Audioslave is just one of the bands Chris Cornell has been in. His grunge style music in the early 90s along sidekick Eddie Vedder was instrumental towards a new revolution in Alternative Rock.
Ever since Temple of the Dog I've enjoyed listening to Chris Cornell. Here is one of his great songs while with the band Audioslave. They are definitely one of my favorites and easily in my top 20 bands ever!
SHOW ME HOW TO LIVE CHRIS!!
