TOM MORELLO TEAMS UP WITH BEARTOOTH TO RELEASE NEW SINGLE “EVERYTHING BURNS” FEATURED IN FINAL FANTASY XIV

Legendary guitarist Tom Morello joins metalcore powerhouse Beartooth with new single “Everything Burns” (out now on Mom+Pop Music) produced by two-time GRAMMY-nominated songwriter, musician and producer Tyler Smyth (Falling in Reverse, I Prevail, Blessthefall, Royal & the Serpent). This fierce collaboration fuses Morello’s signature guitar riffs with soaring, aggressive vocals from singer Caleb Shomo noting: “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.”


Yesterday, the song made its in-game debut for the latest update of Final Fantasy XIV, where players will get to experience the track in one of the most pivotal parts of the game – earlier today it premiered on SiriusXM Octane and is now available globally on all streaming platforms along with a music video directed by AxiA. 


On his collaboration with Beartooth, Morello adds: 
“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.”



Along with the release of the new single, Fender announced Tom Morello’s “Arm The Homeless” Guitar, an instrument faithfully recreating one of the most distinctive and influential guitars in rock history. This limited-edition launch serves as a deeply personal project for Morello, with Fender providing the craftsmanship, platform, and expertise to realize his vision. To recreate the instrument, Fender worked side-by-side with Morello to faithfully reproduce every nuance of the original, from its distinctive body shape and color scheme to its custom electronics and untrimmed strings on the headstock. A portion of proceeds will benefit Midnight Mission and Covenant House, two local Los Angeles organizations hand-picked by Morello for their dedication to providing shelter and dignity to people experiencing homelessness. The project embodies Morello’s lifelong activism, championing the power of creativity and connection to uplift communities.

​Last month, Morello recently wrapped up his sold-out headline tour, featuring special guests each night including artists such as Corey Glover & Vernon Reid (Living Colour), Darryl McDaniels (Run DMC), Tim Mcllrath (Rise Against) and more. Next year, he will head on tour kicking off in Lollapalooza Chile on March 13, wrapping up in Bilbao, Spain at BBK Music Legends Festival on June 27 – all tour dates below with more announcing soon. Get your tickets HERE.
