Picked up the new CD over the weekend. First of all I love Audioslave. But even better than that, to my ears it had just a great mix going. I didn't have to struggle at all to hear the bass. I really wish they would release a CD version of the concert, it was that good. Anyways, check it out if you get a chance. Just watching Morello do his crazy guitar stuff is almost reason enough. |

|  | So much flame, it burns............ | | Join Date: Feb 2002 Location: Las Vegas, NV. | | Haven't got all the way through mine yet, but impressions so far:
1. Cornell is not the most "in tune" vocalist in music.
2. Commerford's back up vocals are VERY out of tune.
3. Morello is a very creative, great guitarist.
4. The mix is very good, but........
5. ...it is not synced well. The Video is strangely about 1/4th of a second ahead of the Audio...the whole thing...it's not an effect  .
PS. Not sure if I spelled their names correctly....and I'm too lazy to go get the CD and look.

Beta Tester: Source Audio | | Join Date: Jul 2004 Location: Chicago, IL | | | There are a couple of tracks where Cornell is very shaky. But often he is just fine. When he is on, he has just about the most amazing voice I have ever heard. And Crommeford did have his share of backup vocal issues. Also, my video was in sync with the audio fine, don't know why your's was bad.
It was 12.99 at Fry's for me, and that was the special version. |

I was surprised how terrible Cornell sounded. It's hard to believe that's the same guy that sung 'Jesus Christ Pose'.
I didn't enjoy the concert much but I also can't get into their music, it sounds really uninspired to me, quite unlike RATM  |

On CDs They probably do his vocals one line at a time and take the best ones. Takes the soul out of a performance, but sounds in tune and no screw-ups. |

Where you really see it is watching the drummer (especially the snare). You see the hit a micro second before you hear it. Kind of like being 30 yards away from the stage where the sound is a little late compared to what you are watching.
If the "special" version is the two disc set, I've got that too.

I've since seen other copies of it playing in Music and Electronics stores. They're all the same. It's so subtle I'm sure most people wouldn't notice it, but I've always been kind of a "time/meter savant".

Best sound from an outdoor show I've ever heard. |

Haven't picked up the DVD yet, but I caught parts on MTV and really liked what I saw.
