Please Come Home is the first studio album by Dustin Kensrue, released in 2007.
The album contains eight songs, which Kensrue has emphasized was a reflection of the albums/EPs he used to buy as a kid.[ citation needed ]
The album was recorded in the studio of Thrice lead guitarist Teppei Teranishi, who also played piano and organ on the album. Electric guitars and drums were recorded by long-time friend and Thrice guitar technician, Chris Jones.
The album was planned for release in October 2006, but was delayed to 2007 due to issues recording and acquiring a label to distribute it.
On October 10, 2006, it was announced that Kensrue had signed with Equal Vision Records, and that the label would release his debut solo album. [3] On November 7, "I Knew You Before" was made available for streaming via Kensrue's Myspace account. [4] Please Come Home was released on January 23, 2007 through Equal Vision. [3] In June, Kensrue went on a tour of the U.S. alongside Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine. [5]
Audioslave was an American rock supergroup formed in Glendale, California, in 2001. The four-piece band consisted of Soundgarden's lead singer and rhythm guitarist Chris Cornell with Rage Against the Machine members Tom Morello, Tim Commerford, and Brad Wilk (drums). Critics first described Audioslave as a combination of Soundgarden and Rage Against the Machine, but by the band's second album, Out of Exile, it was noted that they had established a separate identity. Their unique sound was created by blending 1970s hard rock and 1990s alternative rock, with musical influences that included 1960s funk, soul and R&B. As with Rage Against the Machine, the band prided themselves on the fact that all sounds on their albums were produced using only guitars, bass, drums, and vocals, with emphasis on Cornell's wide vocal range and Morello's unconventional guitar solos.
