A few weeks ago, Tom Morello and Pussy Riot joined forces for a powerful new song called “Weather Strike.” Though it seemed like a one-off at the time, the tune is part of a new EP,
The Catastrophists, put together by Morello and Bloody Beetroots

Today, another new song has emerged from that seven-song collection. Titled “Radium Girls,” the track also features Pussy Riot, along with vocals from Mish Barber-Way (White Lung), Aimee Interrupter (the Interrupters) and The Last Internationale. It was co-written with Jehnny Beth (Savages), Carl Restivo, Nadya Tolokonnikova and Simone Cogo.

Comandante LLC Tom Morello has announced a new EP in collaboration with electronic artist
The Bloody Beetroots.
The collection is titled
The Catastrophists, and is due out June 18. You can listen to the first single, âRadium Girls,â now via digital outlets.

GET TO KNOW A CFCR VOLUNTEER!
In my 11+ years as Program Director at CFCR, I’ve seen hundreds of Volunteer Hosts come through our studios. Some folks are on the air for a few weeks or months, some for a few years. But only a small handful of Hosts have been doing weekly programs for as long as Paul Pybus. Paul has recently decided to hang up the headphones on his Wednesday evening show
Fake Headlines, after producing more than 1070 episodes, which is over 20 years of weekly radio shows! Paul’s off-the-cuff style of broadcasting, and indie-rock/punk-rock/pop-rock music picks have been a delight to listen to. Even when he hits a snag, it’s always entertaining!
