Tom Morello, the renowned American guitarist known for his work with bands like Rage Against The Machine and Audioslave, has announced a new collaboration with System Of A Down’s frontman, Serj Tankian, and Morello’s son, Roman. This upcoming single, titled “Adjourn It,” is set to be released later this month.
While Morello has previously worked on solo projects, this new release marks his first proper solo album that aims to showcase his individual artistry. Despite his solo endeavor, Morello has not completely abandoned collaborations, as evidenced by the inclusion of Tankian and his son on this track.
In a statement, Morello described “Adjourn It” as a “Freedom Song” inspired by the plight of immigrants and the fight against fascism. The track promises to deliver powerful riffs that echo themes of justice and equality.
The collaboration between Morello and Tankian is not surprising given their longstanding relationship, which includes co-founding the non-profit organization, Axis of Justice. Through this initiative, the duo aims to unite musicians, music fans, and political organizations in advocating for social justice, peace, and human rights.
In an interview, Morello shared insights into his solo rock album, emphasizing the fusion of his signature guitar style from his previous bands with a new creative direction. He expressed a willingness to incorporate influences from his son’s musical ideas into this album, promising a blend of rock riffs reminiscent of Rage Against The Machine with a touch of folk-inspired melodies.
Morello’s dedication to his solo project reflects a desire to explore new musical territories while staying true to his iconic sound. The collaboration with Tankian and the inclusion of his son in “Adjourn It” hint at a dynamic and innovative approach to his upcoming album.
As fans eagerly anticipate the release of “Adjourn It,” the track’s thematic focus on social issues and the creative partnership between Morello, Tankian, and Roman promise a compelling musical experience that resonates with the spirit of activism and artistic expression.
