Tom Morello released his highly anticipated new album, The Atlas Underground Fire on Friday (Oct. 15th).
According to Morello, The Atlas Underground Fire is the byproduct of very dark and challenging pandemic days.
He said in a release, “Making this album was a life raft during a troubled time. Creating a global conspiracy of rock’n’roll pen pals of incredible and diverse talents really kept me going and helped me push myself as an artist and guitarist. I recorded all my guitar parts in a cloistered isolation and it feels great now to unleash these tunes on the world and inflict the latest chapter of my bizarro guitar playing on an unsuspecting public.”
The 12-track album is a follow-up 2018's, The Atlas Underground and features collaborators including Bruce Springsteen, Eddie Vedder, Chris Stapleton, Mike Posner, and Damian Marley.
