RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE guitarist Tom Morello has joined forces with BEARTOOTH frontman Caleb Shomo on a brand-new single titled “Everything Burns”. The track was produced by Tyler Smyth (FALLING IN REVERSE, ROYAL & THE SERPENT) and premiered through its in-game debut in the latest update of the video game “Final Fantasy XIV”.
Morello said in a statement: “‘Everything Burns’ is a high-energy, riff-heavy banger that feels like it’s rising from the streets.
“Collaborating with BEARTOOTH and super producer Tyler Smyth to forge this ferocious next single from my upcoming solo album was a real thrill.”
Shomo added: “Creating ‘Everything Burns’ was the definition of lightning in a bottle. Pressure makes diamonds.
“When I got a call saying ‘Tom Morello wants you to sing on a song for a huge project and it’s due in a few hours,’ I had no idea what would happen, but I gave it all I had and it turned into something that’s truly once in a lifetime.
“I couldn’t be more honored to be a part of this with Tom and the entire ‘Final Fantasy’ family that made this happen. Life goal achieved”.
Alongside “Everything Burns”, Morello’s forthcoming solo album will also feature the previously released “Pretend You Remember Me”, as well as “Soldier In The Army Of Love”, a special collaboration with his son, Roman.
