Tom Morello just dropped the announcement every rock fan has been waiting for: he’s teaming up with Serj Tankian for a new single called “ADJOURN IT,” hitting streaming services on May 29 *. But here’s the kicker—Morello’s 15-year-old son Roman is also on the track, making this a multi-generational collaboration that’s already got the rock world buzzing *. When a Rage Against The Machine legend joins forces with the System Of A Down frontman, you know something heavy is coming.
Morello isn’t pulling any punches about what this song represents—he’s calling it a “Freedom Song” built on crushing riffs that stand for justice and equality *. The track was inspired by the persecution of immigrants and resistance to fascism, which is exactly the kind of unapologetic political fire we’ve come to expect from both of these artists *. This isn’t just another single drop; it’s a statement, and considering Morello’s been organizing protest shows with Bruce Springsteen and Rise Against lately, plus headlining charity concerts where 100 percent of proceeds went to victims’ families, the man is clearly on a mission *.
The announcement came via Facebook with a photo of all three collaborators, and the single is already available for pre-save *. When two of the most politically charged voices in rock and metal history get together in the studio, you can bet it’s going to be more than just music—it’s going to be a rallying cry.
