Last year,\u00a0Tom Morello told\u00a0NME\u00a0<\/i>about making \u2018Soldier\u00a0In\u00a0The\u00a0Army\u00a0Of\u00a0Love\u2019 with Roman<\/a>. \u201cIt\u2019s a collaboration with my 13-year-old son, Roman,\u201d he explained. \u201cDuring the pandemic, while the rest of us were baking bread and trying to learn a language, he was\u00a0practising\u00a0guitar for eight hours a day.\u00a0I\u2019ve\u00a0been relegated to being the rhythm guitar player in my family as I have a shredding prodigy now\u00a0who\u2019s\u00a0really giving me a run for my money.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cOne day I was walking by his\u00a0room\u00a0and these huge drop-D riffs were coming out of there and I\u00a0said\u00a0\u2018What\u2019s that\u2019 and he said \u2018Oh, I\u2019ve just been working on some riffs, do you think these go well together?\u2019.\u00a0I was like \u2018Son. Those go very well together and\u00a0we\u2019re\u00a0about to write our first song together.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo \u2018Soldier\u00a0In\u00a0The\u00a0Army\u00a0Of\u00a0Love\u2019 is about the redemptive power of rock and roll.\u00a0It\u2019s\u00a0got huge Morello riffs from multi-generations and a shredding guitar solo where you\u00a0have to\u00a0guess which one of us played.\u201d<\/p>\n

In other news,\u00a0Morello recently teamed up with Beartooth vocalist Caleb Shomo for the\u00a0politically-charged\u00a0Final Fantasy 14\u00a0<\/i>anthem \u2018Everything Burns\u2019<\/a>.<\/p>\n
