This striking and intense montage depicts a pivotal, as-yet-unnamed era in American history, created in the aftermath of the largest protest movement in U.S. history—one focused on ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) raids, the militarization of domestic security forces, and opposition to state authoritarianism. To coincide with the release of the video and track, an exclusive spoken-word reflection on the work’s themes by novelist Omar El Akkad—author of the novels *American War* and *What Strange Paradise*, as well as the non-fiction masterpiece *One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This*—will be released on Friday, April 17.\n\n“Collaborating with an artist of Tom’s greatness, originality, and integrity is a tremendous honor in my career. Yet, as this track is released, we find ourselves in a state of chaos. Across the Western Hemisphere, state authoritarianism and the militarization of the police are once again aligning with neo-fascist politics. Given the state of emergency in the United States and the situation both at home and abroad, this track is imbued with the pulse of ruthless impulse and a forsaken spirit.” (Massive Attack)\n\n“One day, many years ago, we received an invitation to collaborate from Massive Attack. It was quite a while ago, but we sent them ‘Boots on the Ground.’ I never once worried about the release being delayed. Today, just like every other ‘yesterday’ in human history, guarantees that this song will never fade. Human failings and follies are a feast for the flies. That’s why Massive Attack’s upcoming 12-inch B-side, ‘The Fly,’ features my tribute to these winged pests.” (Tom Waits)\n\n(1\/2)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eTracklisting:\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.Boots on the Ground - Massive Attack and Tom Waits\u003cbr\u003e1.The Fly - Tom Waits\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Play It Again Sam","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":52637745053985,"sku":"4526180760559","price":227.0,"currency_code":"RON","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0568\/8482\/2076\/files\/4526180760559.jpg?v=1777964399","url":"https:\/\/cdsvinyljapan.com\/en-ro\/products\/4526180760559","provider":"CDs Vinyl Japan Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
