That's cool, that was just my opinion so take it for what it's worth (ie - very little). I was very intrigued when I first heard about Audioslave, but I was let down when I heard them. I just can't seem to get into their music.
One thing that I was especially impressed with on the first album was the bass work. Reminded me a bit of Skunk Anansie in respect that the bass was so appropriate. Sounds like a really crap compliment for it, but you know what I mean? It made the whole album work.
