Check out Audioslave’s new song ‘Original Fire’. The first AudioSlave song I’ve actually liked, it’s upbeat and rockin’. All of a sudden the guitar solo kicks in and it’s obvious Tom Morello has no idea how to write a solo, he must be rhythm-deprived. To be honest, I’ve never been impressed with his guitar skills outside of how he played with RATM, cuz that music fit his skills and type of playing well. But this song’s solo is just so bad (and actually listening to some of his playing during the verses as well, that’s not the greatest match either); me and a friend were driving back from Michigan, twas the first time he’d heard the song, thought it was pretty good, then the solo kicked in. He looked at me and shook his head in agreement.
