Tom Morello has teamed with metalcore powerhouse Beartooth on the new single and video “Everything Burns,” which recently made its in-game debut for the latest update of “Final Fantasy XIV.”
Morello has also introduced a new signature Fender guitar, the “Arm The Homeless” model, which he used to create and perform many of his famous songs from Rage Against The Machine.
The track “Everything Burns,” which is out now on Mom+Pop Music is produced by musician and producer Tyler Smyth (Falling in Reverse, I Prevail, Blessthefall, Royal & the Serpent). The track collaboration fuses Morello’s signature guitar riffs with vocals from Beartooth singer Caleb Shomo.
“Creating ‘Everything Burns’ was the definition of lightning in a bottle,” Shomo said. “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.”
The song is included in “Final Fantasy XIV,” where players get to experience the track in one of the most pivotal parts of the game. The music video is directed by AxiA.
“’Everything Burns’ is a high energy riff heavy banger that feels like it’s rising from the streets,” Morello said. “Collaborating with Beartooth and super producer Tyler Smyth to forge this ferocious next single from my upcoming solo album was a real thrill.”
Morello’s other news is the release of the Tom Morello “Arm The Homeless” guitar. This limited-edition launch serves as a deeply personal project for Morello. 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.
