Tom Morello has revealed that working on his upcoming solo album has offered him more “purity” in his work than with a band.In an interview with NME, the Rage Against the Machine guitarist reflected on striking out solo – not least, with the forthcoming release of his single ‘Soldier In The Army Of Love’.“I’ve done a number of solo records before, but I love the idea of being in a band because what you get out of being in a band is chemistry,” he said. “Together you create something that none of you could create alone.”“What you get out of being a solo artist is purity and being able to create something that no one else would be able to create.”Elsewhere in the interview, Morello stated that the upcoming album will be his “first straight-up rock and roll record with my name on it”.“I was just letting the music lead the way and the songs that I was writing with [13-year-old son Roman Morello] were like heavy rock songs,” he adds.
