You could go on about how soulless and hollow Revelations sounds. You could rant about how bored Morello sounds with sports-montage guitar rock, how tired and forced Cornell sounds in his vocal delivery and the dire attempts at stadium rock (only coming slightly close with "Original Fire" and the title track). But really, everything about this record, as we would eventually find out, can be summed up with one song title: Nothing Left To Say But Goodbye.
Thanks for the memories, Audioslave. Now let's just forget this ever happened.

The third and last album for Audioslave was always going to be the defining release of their career. Not because it is their legacy or anything complex like that - it was defining because Out Of Exile just wasn't that good. Another bad record would have been the end. As it turns out this was the end, but not because it's a bad record. The sound had evolved yet somewhat returned to the power of Audioslave (the album), resulting in authoritative and commanding tracks like Revelations, One And The Same and Original Fire.
The 'Slave returned to their powerful Rock roots with Revelations, and it's clear it's what they did best. Morello is once again more prominent and the album feels more polished with much less 'filler' than Out Of Exile. Perhaps not quite as consistent as their self-titled album, but a return to form and a worthy album in any collection. Revelations gave Audioslave the credibility and legitimacy they deserved.

Intricate Morello guitar, pounding Wilk drums, outstanding Cornell vocals, and buzzing bass from Timmy C. One of the best albums of 2006.

Audioslave moved on in the minds of many fans with Out Of Exile in 2005. Their sound came together, the band found a sound all their own, and found themself selling loads of records and gaining some critical success. To say the band has stepped back a few steps with the release of Revelations is letting them off lightly. The album, at first listen seems to carry the same depth as Out Of Exile, however when you dig in a bit you discover very little there. The songs get old, very quicky, and drag on with the same riffs and verses done in the past. These riffs are nice, but feel empty at this point. The vocals are very Cornell, but the man seems very uninspired and bored at various points on the album. Is the album bad? Of course not, this is a solid piece of work, we just have heard it done before, and done much better. Is it worth your hard earned dollars and very previous time? No/Very little, when you can get Out Of Exile and enjoy it much more. A true disappointment for any fan out there.

Although extremeley energetic, Revelations does not have the raw power and the brutal force that neither the debut album nor Out of Exile had. In this third album, the supergroup mixes the characteristics of its previous releases to create a groovier result with some delicate melodies and the consistent, controlled and dynamic rhythm section. Cornell's vocals remain grungy and spectacular but this time without the anger and the roaring. Recommendations: "Revelations", "Broken City", "Sound of a Gun", "Original Fire", "Somedays"

The final album by Audioslave is energetic throughout its run never losing its momentum along the way. The only problem is that the momentum is constant and there is no change in their momentum as consistency may be boring in some cases. The album doesn't have any bad tracks some are average, above-a erage but there are some that really stand out like Original Fire, Sound of a Gun and Broken City .

Good, but weak in comparison to their first two records. Boasts some good tracks but overall it's rather bland.

I loved Audioslave quite alot, their first album especially and for the most part really enjoyed Out of Exile. But Revelations really shows them as a band just piecing this album together and you can definetly see where they the former Rage members were becoming tired of Cornell.
Its unfortunate cause the band has a very unique sound and style ,and them going out like this felt unbecoming. Oh well. We still have their first 2 albums.

This is Audioslaves last album. This dissapoints me but atleast they leaft in style. starting out with the Album title song you really get a good song start to the album and get pulled in instantly. Continue through the album and you are still Glued to the Music. Soon you come to Original fire. Chris cornell shows some really interesting vocals that acctually work however weird they might seem. The Guitar riffs from Tom really make the song sound even better course it makes every song sound better. Continueing till the end and you get Moth a great way to end the album and a great song. This album will be good enough to play over and over really.

This album was not anything close to good! It blows my mind how people can think this. Chris Cornell was once a superb singer but in his old age he is losing his soulful moans to a raspy sound of a man losing his voice. There's no shame in that either, but among other things the record sounds thrown together, probably because it took just over a year to release a new full legnth album. Audioslave, now broken up, doesn't seem to mesh well at all on this album and often comes off forced

Audioslave shows improvement with there 3rd studio album. The first single "Original Fire" was probably their most catchy song ever. Also this album has some great potetial singles like the title track "Revelations", "Sound of a Gun" and the song that makes you sing allong "Jewel of the Summertime". This album has some hidden beauties too, you really need to listen to "Nothing Else to Say but Goodbye" and "Untill we Fall". The other songs are great too, but just don`t stand out. Hopefully these guys keep this upgoing line, so we might see them make a Classic album suchs as Rage and Soundgarden did with "Rage Against the Machine" and "Superkown".
