Audioslave

Audioslave was an American rock group that consisted of then-former Soundgarden lead singer Chris Cornell, and then-former Rage Against the Machine members Tom Morello, Tim Commerford  and Brad Wilk.

The band released three studio albums, eleven singles, two video albums, and nine music videos. They received three Grammy nominations and became the first American rock band to perform an open-air concert in Cuba.

The band's self-titled debut was released in 2002, and peaked at number seven on the Billboard 200 chart, selling 162,000 copies in its first week. It was certified gold by the Recording Industry Association of America within a month of release, and by 2006 became their most successful release, with a triple platinum certification. The follow-up was Out of Exile which was released in 2005. It topped the Billboard 200 chart and sold 263,000 copies in its first week. The following year, Audioslave released their third studio album, Revelations, which peaked at number two on the Billboard 200 and sold 142,000 copies during its first week of release. In early 2007, the band broke up due to internal strife over its creative direction.
