The Pretty Reckless' killer collaboration with Tom Morello, And So It Went, now has an equally commanding new video.
Ahead of the release of upcoming album Death By Rock And Roll on February 12, the band have shared the incredibly fired-up new promo, with Taylor Momsen explaining: "The world has been in such a state of civil unrest. And So It Went basically comes from that vision. As a songwriter, I feel like I'm not here to preach. I use music to observe and communicate what I see around me.
"This song felt like the perfect storm for Tom Morello to join in and rip the sound waves apart with his guitar. It was more than a pleasure having him add his unique and defining sound to the song."

Guitar god Tom, meanwhile, stated of working with the band: "I got to perform with Taylor Momsen at the Chris Cornell memorial show. We rocked Loud Love and she nailed it – no easy task. Thank goodness she and her band continue to fly the flag for rock'n'roll in a mighty way."
Discussing the creative process behind Death By Rock And Roll as a whole, Taylor explained in an interview with Kerrang!: "I didn’t have to try to write this album. As a writer, inspiration is something that you always struggle to find, whereas for this record, I had an influx of inspiration whether I wanted it or not. It was this brick that slammed me in the face and went, 'Here. Here, Taylor. You want something to write about? Here.’ So I didn’t have to try to write it, it kind of just poured out of me in a way that I can’t really describe. We had to start from scratch again, in a way. We’d never made an album without Kato [Khandwala, late producer] before. We lost everything, so we had to really start again from the beginning and learn how to rebuild – both as individuals and together. And I think that that is this weird blessing and curse."
