Casino Royale song will be performed by Audioslave frontman

IGN Music says that Chris Cornell, the "....screaming siren voiced frontman of Audioslave" has written the main title theme to the new James Bond movie Casino Royale.

Cornell collaborated on the song, entitled "You Know My Name," with long time Bond composer David Arnold, who has scored all the Bond films since Tomorrow Never Dies.

"I've always loved Chris' work, both as a writer and as an artist, and had hoped someday to find the right film to inspire him," said Lia Vollack, President, Worldwide Music for Columbia Pictures. "His music is both soulful and tough. It was the perfect complement to Daniel Craig and Casino Royale."

Cornell joins ranks with the likes of Paul McCartney & Wings, Sheryl Crow, Chrissie Hynde, and Madonna in terms of being a modern pop icon who has penned an original James Bond theme song.
