[edit] Guitar solo
"Original Fire" has a strange guitar solo that Tom Morello describes as monkey laughter. He does this solo by setting his DOD Equalizer, deploying his wah-wah pedal, depressing his whammy bar to make the strings slack and slapping the strings against the pickups, though, as in the video, it is also possible to have the same effect by using the tuning peg, instead of the whammy bar.
[edit] Music video
A music video for "Original Fire" was also shot, and premiered on Yahoo! Music.[1] The video reflected on the lyrics of the song, "The original fire has died and gone, but the riot inside moves on." It featured the band playing with images of figures that are inspirational to the band, such as Johnny Cash, Martin Luther King Jr., Che Guevara, Chuck D, The Clash, Bob Dylan, Wendy O. Williams, Peter Tosh, Jello Biafra, Bill Hicks, Lenny Bruce, Jim Morrison, the Million Man March, Andy Warhol, Ozzy Osbourne, Janis Joplin, Joey Ramone, Randy Rhoads, Malcom X, Glenn Danzig, Kurt Cobain, and Iggy Pop.
