The Rage Against the Machine guitarist is putting together another album from his side project, The Nightwatchman.

Tom Morello is a very political guy.  It not more apparent then in his music.  The aggressive style of Rage or the folk rock of his other band, The Nightwatchman.  We have heard reports since January that Rage is currently working on a new album, but no release date yet.  Morello in the meantime is working on some new stuff for the Watcman project.

This will be his third album is his "One man revolution".  The last one came out in 2008.  This album is due out in the late summer, but Morello isn't giving any more details than that.

He first started doing things as The Nightwatchman after Rage broke up.  He would sign up for open mic gigs using that name to surprise people and he would perform protest songs. I wll say that The Nightwatchman is not for everyone, and if you're looking for Rage you will be disappointed.  If you are looking for some folky sounding political message, then this is for you.  Personally, I'll take the Rage stuff.
