• "Soldier In The Army Of Love" is a powerful anthem that combines strident guitar riffs with a message of hope and unity. It's a call to arms for a new generation of activists.

• A standout feature of the song is a shredding guitar solo by Morello's 13-year-old son, Roman, who co-wrote the song.
  
  "During the pandemic, while the rest of us were baking bread and trying to learn a language, he was practicing guitar for eight hours a day," Tom Morello explained to NME. "I've been relegated to being the rhythm guitar player in my family as I have a shredding prodigy now who's really giving me a run for my money. One day I was walking by his room and these huge drop-D riffs were coming out of there and I said 'What's that' and he said 'Oh, I've just been working on some riffs, do you think these go well together?' I was like 'Son. Those go very well together and we're about to write our first song together.'"
