Bah, Audioslave are better than Velvet Revolver. I love VR though, although it's really Scott Weiland that does it for the band in my opinion. The Rage members of Audioslave have really come into their own in Audioslave, they were wasted talent in Rage.
I prefer Heavy Metal anyhow. I am not into the Audioslave style of rock. It is not bad dont take me wrong. I would go and see them in concert but they just dont get my blood pumping like Metallica, Iron Maiden, Megedeth, Slayer, Godsmack, and Slipknot do.
