26. 'Audioslave' - Audioslave (2002) 'Be Yourself' With Soundgarden and Rage Against The Machine both on breaks, the ashes of both bands rose in the form of Audioslave - a heavy, grungy, funky take on music that emphasised both Chris Cornell's vocals and Rage Against The Machine's music.  Their eponymous debut album was a fresh take on both of their already successful music, but with new, unique and unexplored musical ventures attempted and achieved. 'Audioslave' was a success - it bred a couple of well received singles and was met with positive critical acclaim. Laz analyses the musical aspects, whilst Felipe dissects the lyrics - and, together, they dive into the minds of Chris Cornell and Tom Morello.

Hosts Lazarus Michaelides and Felipe Amorim-Laz and Felipe to regular listeners-share a deep, conversational passion for guitar riffs, anthemic choruses, and the cultural moments that only rock music can create. Their Long Live Rock 'N' Roll podcast is a dedicated space for that enthusiasm, moving beyond simple rankings to explore the texture and context of the genre. Each episode focuses on a specific song, band, or seminal album, dissecting not just the musical composition but the human stories and historical conditions that fueled its creation. You’ll hear them analyze why a particular guitar solo resonates decades later, or how a band’s internal dynamics shaped a classic record, always with a focus on the artistry and impact. This isn’t a dry history lesson; it’s a lively discussion between two knowledgeable fans who believe the music’s power lies in its combination of raw sound and relatable humanity. Whether examining a legendary track from the 70s or a pivotal album from the 90s, the conversation in this podcast aims to connect the notes you hear to the people who made them and the listeners who found meaning in them. For anyone who has ever been captivated by a drum fill or a lyric shouted from a stage, Long Live Rock 'N' Roll offers a thoughtful, engaging deep dive into the soundtrack of rebellion and resonance.
