"slaves & bulldozers" still gives me chills when i hear it. that being said, "scream" is an embarrassment, cornell's other solo albums reek of mediocrity, and a drunk carpenter or butcher could count the decent audioslave songs on one of his mangled hands and still have fingers left over. i understand the need to branch out and experiment, but when your experiment is an obvious failure, you don't proceed with it and act like you didn't just screw the pooch. you don't take that failure and present it to the world. who knows? maybe the experience of recording "scream" was fun/enlightening/entertaining/interesting, but the outcome shouldn't have ever been released. benson's "long gone" is better than timbaland's, but not by much. let's all hope that this failure of an album is the catalyst for a new soundgarden record. i was ten years old when “badmotorfinger” came out, and have loved most of soundgarden’s music for the last 18 years. “slaves & bulldozers” still gives me chills when i hear it. that being said, “scream” is an embarrassment, cornell’s other solo albums reek of mediocrity, and a drunk carpenter or butcher could count the decent audioslave songs on one of his mangled hands and still have fingers left over. i understand the need to branch out and experiment, but when your experiment is an obvious failure, you don’t proceed with it and act like you didn’t just screw the pooch. you don’t take that failure and present it to the world. who knows? maybe the experience of recording “scream” was fun/enlightening/entertaining/interesting, but the outcome shouldn’t have ever been released. benson’s “long gone” is better than timbaland’s, but not by much. let’s all hope that this failure of an album is the catalyst for a new soundgarden record.

At least you can take some consolation in the fact that you didn't attempt to defend this steaming turd of an album and have retained your self respect....unlike Chris Cornell. Good for you Paul.

As an unabashed Cornell devotee, I wanted so badly for this album to be good. I really did. But it's just...not. Awful.

That and going double platinum changes good ordinary musicians into douchebags. Because he got to big headed twards the late 90s and thought we as fans would by anything with his name on it.
