In other news, bassist Tim Commerford recently told NY Rock magazine that he wouldn't mind hearing his former RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE bandmate Zack De La Rocha's thoughts on his new band.

"Zack and I haven't talked in ages," he revealed. "We didn't talk since he left. If I could be sure that he would give me an unbiased opinion, then I'd be interested in hearing what he thinks about our sound and how he likes. But, truth to be told, I don't think that much about Zack anymore in musical terms. It was pretty hard when he left, but when we met up with [ex-SOUNDGARDEN frontman] Chris [Cornell], and Chris joined the band, it was a fresh start and it was a new feeling.

"The older I get, the more I drift away from the 'Fuck You, I Won't Do What You Tell Me' from our debut. I'm 34 and I ask myself what I want to do when I'm 44. I was a part of RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE and it was great. Maybe it would have lasted a lot longer if Zack wouldn't have left. For now, I just want to be 34 and to be taken seriously on a different musical level.

"I think when I'm 54 and turn the radio on I'd rather hear AUDIOSLAVE than RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE."
