Reporting on Tom Morello’s musical output is becoming a full-time profession in itself. Fresh off the back of recent collaborations with – deep breath – K.Flay, Pussy Riot, Dennis DeYoung, The Pretty Reckless and Serj Tankian, the Rage Against the Machine guitar anarchist has now joined forces with EDM giants The Bloody Beetroots for a new seven-track EP, The Catastrophists.

The EP’s first single, Radium Girls, gives an idea of what to expect. Similar in sonic scope to the riff-dance hybrids found on Morello’s 2019 collaborative effort, The Atlas Underground, the track teams Morello’s toggle-switching and helicopter chops with a massive bass-heavy production.
