wow, this song gave me the chills the first time I heard it. I don't really like Original Fire much, in comparison. It's in Miami Vice btw. It's kind of reminds me of Shadow of the Sun. Here's a short clip of it:

    I went to Miami Vice partly to hear the new Audioslave songs...and I was not let down. This and Wide Awake are just fantastic.
    I've faced it, a life wasted, and I'm never going back again.

    considering they released OoE last year, toured, recorded Revelations, and will release Revelations Sept 5 and then Cornell has a solo record to make and a tour for that.....I'm not too sure about a Revelations tour just yet.

    Sounds awesome, definitely a new type of sound for audioslave, you do realise there are two other sound clips from Miami vice too? there is another segment of Shape of things to come, and another new song called Wide awake (which sounds fucking incredible, it's about the hurricane katrina response(or lack of) - i don't have time to you send it them at the moment, but if you head over to audioslaved.com you should find links easily enough.

    Both of the songs in Miami Vice(Shape of Things to Come, Wide Awake) are confirmed to be on the album. I think their official website has the tracklist.

    OK i had to get another post in on the topic, Wide Awake sounds amazing, this could be the song that shuts all the Audioslave haters up, Cornell sounds great, the music is perfectly atmospheric, and the lyrics are really damning, i've got goosebumps listening to it!

    Don't say that! I better not have spent $25 to be part of their fan club just to get a sticker and an 8x10... I want good seats at shows!

  • These songs are incredible from what i have heard. Releasing quality songs is the best way to hype an album.

    Yeah, it just would have been nice if they had used something like Wide Awake as the first single instead of something as obvious as Original fire. I quite like Original fire, but it's nothing mind-blowing, but the melodies in both the other songs are just spine-chilling, and would have shown the other side of the band that most of the haters haven't bothered to listen to.

    do the band have any say in what track is released to radio as a single? I'm not so sure..........and as far as the tour, considering Brad and his wife are awaiting the birth of their first child, pehaps that has something to do with putting off a tour.......and no one has heard of a CC solo tour.....he's only said he hopes to be done recording the record by the end of summer. Who knows when it'll be released?

    I am all for solo Chris. This Audioslave music is shit, and I can't wait for it to be over with.

    I love how some people on here, say Audioslave's music is so bad. I agree Soundgardens music was better, but Audioslave's 1st record is great 2nd album good but not great. This new album if your a fan of Cornells go buy it sept.5 gonna be a good one.
  • i like what i am hearing... cant wait to hear the songs in full! i am excited by this album and the fact that morello has hinted they may be coming down to do the Big day out tour in january!

  • Yeah so I saw Miami Vice tonight...the movie fucking blew so hard. Sucked beyond belief. But I heard the new Audioslave clips...the songs didn't really sound all that different from Out of Exile...infact the chorus of both songs sounded lame...like Dani California lame.

    No they do not sound anywhere near danni california, seriously get your ears checked, they also don't sound like anything from OOE. the closest song (if any) they sound like is Shadow on the sun. Can I just clarify, did any of you people actually like ANYTHING Cornell did before AS? I know I'm coming off as being rude, but some people seem so unwilling to give anything Audioslave do a chance. You know there are a fair few Soundgarden songs I don't care for, and RATM ones for that matter, but it doesn't mean I would dismiss their entire bodies of work.
