Brooklyn's Outernational have posted a new collaboration with Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine, Street Sweeper Social Club and The Nightwatchman. The band explained:

[The song is] dedicated to the fight against Arizona's backwards new laws and all
the immigrants under the gun. We've been performing the song over the
course of the last tour supporting Shooter Jennings, and when we heard
about Arizona SB1070 we called up Morello and cut a version. The
original is a Woody Guthrie song but the lyrics ring as true as ever:

*Some of us are illegal and some are not wanted*

*When contract is out, we've got to move out*

*Its six hundred miles to the Mexican border*

*They chase us like outlaws, like rustlers, like thieves*

The band is currently in New Orleans protesting against BP and will be embarking on a two month tour supporting GBH.
