Tom Morello has released a new single from his upcoming album, The Atlas Underground Fire. The song is called “Driving To Texas” and it features Phantogram.
Morello said, “I’d worked with Josh from Phantogram on my first Atlas Underground album and I was thrilled when he and Sarah reached out about collaborating on this record. This song is creepy as hell –a dark journey, a struggle for a tortured soul. The guitar solo needed to feel like a vengeful angel who has come down to decide the fate of the protagonist. Will they descend into the abyss or will they find redemption? 'Driving To Texas,' really shows the breadth of the music you’ll hear on this record. Sarah has one of the most haunting and beautiful voices of anyone singing today, and Josh’s production is stylistically so fresh and eerie.”
Morello's The Atlas Underground Fire album will be released on October 15th. The album’s first single was the classic rock AC/DC rock anthem “Highway to Hell” featuring Morello, Bruce Springsteen and Eddie Vedder, which debuted at Number One on Classic Rock radio.
In addition to Springsteen and Vedder, the album features a cast of collaborators including Chris Stapleton, Mike Posner, Damian Marley and more.
