Tom Morello is releasing his first solo rock album, titled "Everyone Gets Everything They Want," in September [1].

The project marks a significant shift for the guitarist, moving into a dedicated solo rock space while integrating a diverse array of collaborators to expand his sonic palette.

The upcoming album features guest appearances from several prominent artists, including System of a Down's Serj Tankian, the group Kneecap, and Beartooth [1]. Morello also collaborated with his son, Roman Morello, for the record [1].

Along with the album announcement, Morello has released a new single titled "Date Night" [1]. Morello said the project is about creating something that is both challenging and rewarding, as well as providing a space for experimentation and collaboration [1].

Caleb Shomo of Beartooth said it is a really exciting thing to be involved with Tom Morello and his new project [1]. The record is expected to be supported by a one-off event called the "Power To The People" festival, which is scheduled for this fall [1].

The festival is planned to take place outside Washington, D.C. [1]. This event will serve as a primary promotional vehicle for the album's themes and the collective of artists involved in the recording process [1].

“"This is about creating something that's both challenging and rewarding, a space for experimentation and collaboration."”

By blending high-profile rock collaborators with emerging acts like Kneecap and family members, Morello is positioning this album as a cross-generational bridge. The pairing of a solo rock debut with a politically themed festival in the D.C. area suggests the project will lean heavily into the activist identity Morello has maintained throughout his career.
