Chris Cornell’s passing earlier this month made waves across the music world, with the tragedy eliciting an outpouring of tributes from fans and musicians alike who were touched by the legendary musician who helped pioneer the 90’s grunge scene. Cornell was on tour with Soundgarden at the time of his death, and today, members of the singer’s former project Audioslave came together to pay tribute to their friend. According to The PRP, during a rehearsal for Prophets of Rage’s upcoming summer tour, the remaining members of Audioslave—Tom Morello, Tim Commerford, and Brad Wilk—performed an instrumental version of their song “Like A Stone” as a tribute to their fallen bandmate.
