Before he was Audioslave frontman, Chris Cornell was in Soundgarden and one of his friends, Andrew Wood, died of a heroin overdose. Cornell got together with Pearl Jam's Stone Gossard and formed Temple of the Dog, which grew into a Soundgarden/Pearl Jam supergroup. They only released the one self-titled album, but they're legendary; when you think grunge supergroups of the early 1990s, Temple of the Dog is usually the first that comes to mind. Since Cornell wrote the lyrics, he's got the intellectual rights to them; you'll also notice that Audioslave also does a few Soundgarden covers such as Black Hole Sun and Rage Against the Machine ones as well, like Sleep Now InTthe Fire because the other bands members are the ex-Rage outfit.
This was not a supergroup...they were nothing when they "formed" as you put it. This was never actually a band, they got together to do one tribute to a fallen friend, and that is all it was ever meant to be and all it ever has been.
