Tom Morello, Dave Navarro, Jimmy Page and more pay tribute to Chris Cornell

Posted by on May 18, 2017

We’re still processing last night’s suicide of Chris Cornell. And as we attempt to come to grips with the senseless loss of a voice for a generation (X), we pretty much have no words. We can’t even imagine how the family and friends of the grunge icon feel. Artists including his Audioslave bandmate Tom Morello and his tourmate, The Dillinger Escape Plan’s Benjamin Weinman have weighed in on their intitial thoughts, as have peers, including Jimmy Page, Dave Navarro, and Sebastian Bach.
 

 

I love you, brother. Thank you for your friendship and your humor and your intellect and your singular and unmatched talent. It was a great honor to know you as a friend and as a band mate. I am devastated and deeply saddened that you are gone dear friend but your unbridled rock power, delicate haunting melodies and the memory of your smile are with us forever. Your beautiful voice and beautiful self will always be in my heart. God bless you and your family.
