Background


AJR created the song for two reasons: to reflect the current position of American politics and to help create the theme song for Morgan Spurlock's newest documentary, Super Size Me 2: Holy Chicken!.[1]

Morgan Spurlock reached out to the band on Twitter, AJR wrote an uptempo track after watching Supersize Me 2: Holy Chicken, and said: "We wanted to create a song that captured that passion. If enough underdogs band together, real change can happen, and we wanted to help inspire that change in 'Burn the House Down'".[1]
