The new Cornell album, "Carry On" is scheduled for release on June 5 via Suretone/Interscope.

Cornell's new U.S. single, "No Such Thing", has been made available for streaming via his MySpace page.

Produced by Grammy Award-winning Producer of the Year Steve Lillywhite, "Carry On" is the 13th career album for Cornell.

Cornell began working on the disc last fall after the release of AUDIOSLAVE's third album, "Revelations". News of the solo project fueled rumors of a split with AUDIOSLAVE, with Cornell officially leaving the band in February due to "irresolvable personality conflicts as well as musical differences." The 14-track effort will feature "You Know My Name", Cornell's theme for the latest James Bond film, "Casino Royale", as well as a cover of MICHAEL JACKSON's "Billie Jean".

[Guitar Shark]

Bummer that he doesn't have a show scheduled in his hometown (Seattle) yet... I will go see him if he heads up this way.

[binnie]

It sucks that he only has one gig planned over here too (two if you count his appearence on the Aerosmith bill)

[Padre Atilio]

Cornell doing Jacko i cant imagine that even in my dreams

[FORD]

Cornell always did some interesting covers with Soundgarden but...... Michael Jackson???

[SA ME WHO]

Damn! I wish he had a date somewhere between Columbus and Pittsburgh. I'd definitely head to that show.

[DLR'sCock]

This is going to rule, because Irving Plaza only holds about 1000 people!!

This is only the initial promotional tour, expect a larger tour to follow.

That's good to know. I hope Ohio is on the slate for the tour.

[Rikk]

Didn't get tickets in time. They sold out very quickly. I was waiting for a tour like this...would rather see this 100 times more than an AUDIOSLAVE show.

[binnie]

That setlist is killer with one exception: Doesn't remind Me.

That song is a piece of shit. In fact, all of audioslaves "Out of Exile" record sucked major balls. Sounded like nicey, nicey Hottie and the Blowfish rock to me.

Number One Zero was the only halfway decent tune on it.

Still wish he was playing more shows here so I could check out that setlist though: Jesus Christ Pose!!!!!

[Loons The Great]

Ize wonder if he does Rusty Cage Soundgarden or Johnny Cash style one time nah yez yez...I'd like to see this show...this cat is one of the greates' singers of all-times...an' you can take dat to de banks of de muddy ol' mississippi nah!! All Hell Yeah!!

Where's Fopp?

[binnie]

I just hope his new solo record is half way decent.....

I wasn't impressed with the James Bond tune...

He's playing Noblesville, IN (just outside of Indy) in May. I think the night before the race.

Here's some of his new material

[Eyes of the Night]

Glad to see our hometown hero is doing well ...

[binnie]

i'm quite optimistic about the new album now: it's was never going to be Euphoria Morning or Soundgarden, as Chris is in a happier place now.

But it sounds like it will be a good record full of decent tunes: maybe not the heartwrenching performance of old, but enjoyable nonetheless....

[binnie]

Another new one, "Your Soul Today":

[bastardog]

I really like the Casino Royale theme "you know my name"
I think it kind of refresh the 007 movie theme

Maybe if I hear it in another scene it sounds different to me......but I really like it.......just good enough

[Loons The Great]

He's playin' in my hood...but I ain't droppin' 100 dead presidents for no Chris Cornell show...Ize jus' buy that ol' Audioslave live in Cuba DVD nah nah yezz yezz...

[binnie]

He's covering Led Zep's "Thank-You" as a bonus on the Japense version of the album:

[Loons The Great]

Awesome link Binnie, maybe I should go to this show...

[binnie]

Well, he's only playing one show in the UK and its 250 miles from me so there's no way I can get there for any reasonable price.

I saw Audioslave, and when Chris did his acoustic stuff it was breathtaking.

[jharp84]

Listening to old soundgarden right now!! BETTER w/age just like cheap red wine I am drinking!!

[binnie]

I know, people forget just how amazing Soundgarden were.

Never made the same album twice, always pushed their sound in new directions without loosing the sense of what the band was about.

[Loons The Great]

Have you heard Cornell's acoustic version of What's So Funny About Peace Love and Understanding?

It's grate!!

[Loons The Great]

I got it on a bootleg from a Lollapolooza 2003 gig with Audioslave...they also worked up Seven Nation Army...

Bang on the money Awe.

The new album is decent, its solid enough. But its not amazing.

He sounds like he has become old, the fire and passion are gone. Euphoria Morning was an exceptional record full of heartfelt emotions, but now that Cornell is happy (and not taking heroin) his music doesn't have the same depth.

I like his new album, but it isn't a patch on his earlier work. I suppose everyone becomes middle aged in the end.

That being said I would still love to see him live...

Binnie bro, that show was one ofthe best shows I have ever seen, completely orgasmic.


The place was like 100 degrees, and Chris and the band were having such a great time up there on stage, the sound was awesome, his voice was HUGE, we had a perfect view with a bar in front of us.

The crowd was so into it and he really appreciated it and gave it back to the crowd.

Cornell's performance was god-like.

His drummer is pretty fucking good too man.
