cough*Loud Love*cough
Yes, indeed I know... Cept for the screams, I dont think anyone can make up for that, and I dunno. Myles is extremely awesome, and nothing against him, but Chris has his own, i dont even know what, he's insane. The man is insanely awesome. And Myles is only a few years younger, he probably has his own thing, and it'll just get more exposed over time. But flat out vocally, yes. Or, better yet, Cornell could drop the smoking and get into some kind of voice rehab.

No, I think all the many magazine articles that have come out that review the album that compare Myles to Chris think it too.
Wow. I hope that didn't come off as arrogant and piss-headed as it just sounded when I read it. I'm glad you like AB and welcome to the board! Cool avatar BTW. I totally love Kurt. I know some of the members of his family. (I grew up in Montesano/Aberdeen WA.) H-D

Haha I was thinking when i saw this thread, " I bet it's gonna be chris cornell". And yes i agree with you, i think that's about the closest person you could describe him to, especially the end to find the real, the last high note is like exactly like Chris, which is a complement i think. But i wouldn't call him a ripoff at all, it's just when he goes real high, i think he's alot better.

I have a huge poster of Cornell with Audioslave in my dorm room, he is a badass. I think Myles will last longer because of him getting vocal lessons and all.

Yeah, the thing about Chris is that, in the beginning, with Louder Than Love, Screaming Life, etc, he was big into the high screaming...not singing...but screaming...(you cats got me in the mood...listening to "Hunted Down" on Screaming Life...), and that's just what he is doing on the masterpiece intro to "Loud Love". His natural register was in the tenor range, but, when Andrew Wood died, I think that it had a huge effect on Chris, and on Temple of the Dog, he really started to develop his baritone stuff, which could have also been the result of the chain smoking and damage. In any case, for whatever reason, Chris started to develop more texture (as Amber called it) to his voice, and, at that point continuing until...I'll say Superunknown, that texture was for the better. However, the toll taken is too great now, as the texture has taken over his range and limited it. Now he still sounds great, I'm an old school Cornell fan, as I was introduced to Louder Than Love back in '89. But, Chris couldn't touch his older stuff these days...wow, back in the day, though...
In contrast, if you listen to the first Citizen Swing album (circa 1992), that was Myles just getting a hold on the singing thing, and he was great. But, from that point forward, he has gained in power, range, and facility on every subsequent album. This is because Myles applies method to his technique, getting up in the morning to do scales, he watches his diet, etc. |

yeah that is a good point. whether he tries to sound like chris or they both have the same source, the result is the same. i would give the same arguement with the whole stapp-vedder thing in relation to jim morrison. vocally my fav cornell albums are the temple of the dog album and his solo album as they both really show off his voice in the best light IMO. i would love to see myles do an acoustic based solo album as that would show off his voice to no end as it would be the sole focus.

I'm with you, and, yeah, Stapp gets a hard time about sounding like Vedder, when I hear just as much Morrison in there...probably drawing from the same source there, as well. Temple of the Dog...yeah, Cornell at his emotive best, but, then, he was communicating a lot of grief on that album...I don't think he will ever be able to top that, and that's fine...it's immortal... Myles solo cd...yeah, the queue starts here... |

yeah that album is untouchable i think by anything that those guys have done
prior to since that point and i seriously mean that. when AB do get around to having a break i would just about kill for a solo album from myles and for mark's metal project to finally happen where he will seriously let go (hopefully)

no doubt....wasen't there talk that myles' solo work involved some electronica stuff like massive attack or am i crazy lol? that would be kind of cool and certainly different although a more acoustic album would be my preference. mark going sick and doing all of that tapping and and the like would be insane and perhaps some guest vocalists.

yeah, the Myles album...I suspect that he would have been working with Chris White (not me) on that one...they both have a jazz streak, and they were doing a quasi-electronica thing when they worked together on that houseofsound.com commercial... |
